Important personality traits:
He's a vegan, and a strong animal rights activist.
He's been known to wear makeup and dress in women's clothing.
He once claimed to be bisexual. (Note: I'm not sure how serious he was when he said this; he is sometimes accused of being gay, and he was rebutting this accusation.)
He suffered from a kind of anorexia; "Ana's Song" is about his struggle with it. He was also a bit of a shut-in during the time he was away from home, writing poems that would become the lyrics and concept for Neon Ballroom.
He really really really likes fruit.
He says he's never been in love; several songs on Neon Ballroom ("Miss You Love", "Black Tangled Heart") are even "anti-love songs."
He seldom, if ever, brushes his hair; in fact, he had it cut because a brush hadn't touched it in 2 1/2 years.
