I highly recommend inviting the worst-case scenario into your life.

There's a fine line between being private and being ashamed.

If I was 14 and knew some gay people, I wouldn't nearly have had the struggle I had. Our world is definitely changing.

I stumbled into acting and just loved it. I deferred law school - and I'm still deferred.

In high school I had sex with girls quite a few times. They were straight women who I convinced to jump in the sack with me.

My feelings for Ellen overrode all of my fear about being out as a lesbian. I had to be with her, and I just figured I'd deal with the other stuff later.

I try to be feminine, yet intellectual and smart at the same time. You don't see enough of that.
