I don't know RTD well enough to tell whether he was joking or not. I know I was being tongue in cheek and I'm giving him the benefit of doubt by assuming he was at least half joking and/or just being a little bit too fanboyish with regards to his crushes because otherwise he's just some slimy creep who has no qualms about abusing his position. And even if he wasn't joking that still says more about him and the kind of character he is than it does about Gareth and his abilities or the viability of the character he played. The fact that RTD may be guided by his penis is his issue not the actors he hires. And if I take his comments seriously then it definitely puts another spin on his decision to get rid of the character in s3.
