Drew Barrymore: "I Am Bisexual"

Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle star Drew Barrymore has laid to rest years of speculation by confirming she is bisexual - and claims to have bedded "lots of women". The Hollywood actress - who's had two failed marriages, and is now dating The Strokes drummer Fabrizio Moretti - has confirmed she harbors sexual feelings for both sexes. Barrymore has confessed to sleeping with a long line of women during her troubled teenage years - which saw her battling a drug addiction from the age of 11. She says, "Do I like women sexually? Yeah, I do. Totally. I have always considered myself bisexual. I love a woman's body. I think a woman and a woman together are beautiful, just as a man and a woman together are beautiful. Being with a woman is like exploring your own body, but through someone else. When I was younger I used to go with lots of women. Totally - I love it."

i think she means it, to be honest; I've always respected Drew as a woman and an actress and I don't think she's that kind of person. Not, of course, that I know her personally, but especially in the fame business - that sort of thing can destroy an actor or actress's reputation by a lot of their more conservative fans. so I'm inclined to believe ^^

Yeah, I know what you mean. But I think it's a bit different for women and especially when the "only" admit to their bisexuality. I think there's this belief that all women are bisexual anyway and then most men find the idea of two women sexy and women don't mind yadda-yadda. So it's easier for women to say "Hey I like chicks, too!" than for a men to even suggest he might find men attractive. Of course this is just meant as a general note. When I read it I first was a bit doubtful, too, because of the aforementioned considerations, but then I decided that Drew isn't that sort of person. She's always been open and honest about everything in her life and I doubt she needs that kind of publicity. So I believe this to be genuine.
