The teacher wasn't being homophobic in my opinion. Ohaew, if I'm correct, was portraying a gay character and she said he didn't fully get into the role. Assuming she doesn't know Ohaew's sexuality, she may have been implying that he was having difficulty playing a gay man. It wasn't anything other than good acting advice on how to leave himself behind and step into the mind of the character. Likewise, I didn't really have a problem with what the casting director said to Ohaew about being too girly. He wasn't saying it about Oh, but about the character Oh was playing. This is the perfect example of what the teacher meant. They have a type of character that they need to cast for, in this case 'manly', and Ohaew wasn't managing to achieve that with his acting. Maybe 'girly' wasn't the best choice of word, but I don't believe he was being insulting. Insensitive is more how he came across. The tattoo isn't the real problem for Teh. It's what it symbolises. At the beginning we see Ohaew struggling to adapt to the change of leaving home and moving to live in a new city. But he's adjusted really quickly. Now it's Teh who is finding it difficult to cope. Ohaew is changing, and the tattoo is very tangible evidence of that. It might be something small to Ohaew, but to someone who is scared of change like Teh it can be much more significant. This is also the reason why I think Teh reacted the way he did to Ohaew wanting to give up acting. Oh isn't the same person he used to be, and Teh is actually quite terrified of what that might mean. So he lashes out, says things he doesn't mean and behaves in ways he shouldn't. They need to find a way to grow together, but instead they're growing apart. All of this also applies to Teh's friendship with Khim. These two, though. They are something special together, both as actors and characters. I love them to bits. There are many reasons why this series (including ITSAY) is my favourite but they are the main reason.
