That differentness is one of the reasons the Leto brothers' band, 30 Seconds to Mars, has attracted such a big LGBT fan base.
"I got a note from a kid yesterday," Jared said. "We were signing a thousand CDs after a show. If you looked at him, he looked like any young kid maybe in twelfth grade or eleventh grade who'd be on the baseball team or something. A nice looking kid. He handed me a note and it said, 'I just want to say thanks so much for the harmony. It's helped me in many ways–especially with coming out this year to my family.'"

"We escaped early on," Jared said. "It's very oppressive."
He further explained, "We would go back for the summers and stay with our grandmother, though. So the culture was always there that we returned to. We moved around every couple of years growing up. Way up to north Massachusetts. Everywhere. But no matter where we were it was a very creative environment around artists. That is obviously

The actor, who’s starred in the likes of Suicide Squad, Dallas Buyers Club and American Psycho, also weighed in on the concept of modern masculinity and what it means to him. “We’re in an interesting time right now where people are exploring all kinds of different ideas of indentity, not just masculinity or femininity...for myself, I possess never had a specific idea of masculinity. I think it’s okay just to be yourself and whatever that entails. You know, I’ve certainly never felt required to offer myself in a certain way.”
