Cameron Diaz continues to promote her sex life, as opposed to her new movie “Knight and Day.” In the July issue of Playboy, she says
“If I’m going to be with a woman sexually, it doesn’t mean I’m a lesbian. We put these restraints and definitions on people, but it’s hard to define. Sexuality and love can be different things. I can be attracted to a woman sexually, but it doesn’t mean I want to be in love with a woman.”
It’s pretty dangerous when an actor chooses to expound his/her views on sexuality in a magazine article, where hundreds of other people can manipulate the original content into something more controversial, like this. On the one hand, it’s hard to understand how a woman having sex with a woman isn’t lesbianism because that’s how we’ve defined “lesbianism” for however long. At the same time, if we forget about how different kinds of sex are qualified and labeled, sex between two women isn’t necessarily lesbianism if they’re both in love with other men. I think? I’m not sure. I suspect she’s talking about how she’s able to recognize when another woman is attractive, and possibly thinks about what it would be like to have sex with that woman. But she must still prefer men over women because we’ve never known her to date a woman. It seems like she’s saying sexuality depends on which sex you’re in love with, rather than just attracted to…and I’m officially lost at Diaz Sea.
