There are no taboos in bed, and there shouldn't be any taboos in bed.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The truth is I never think of any subject as taboo.
There are no taboos. Every topic is open, however shocking. It is the way that the topics are handled that's important, and that applies whether it is a 15-year-old who is reading your book or someone who is 55.
I can't think of a subject that is taboo for me, unless it's one I simply don't know anything about.
The world is slowly evolving into a place where the things that we have seen as being taboo are starting to open up a bit more.
I don't think the idea of homosexuality is really taboo any more. Our culture is evolving. This is an exciting time to be living.
Male nudity, full-frontal nudity, has always been considered a lot more taboo than female nudity. As far back as I can remember, there's been a double standard between men and women. I think it's time that men get equal time in terms of nudity.
I've always been attracted to things that are taboo. I've never been afraid to go to that dark place.
Partly what I'm writing about is the way taboos get toppled.
Not taboo - it's just that straight actors still risk their careers commercially and economically. They have to please the crowd - they're movie stars; their image is their industry. It goes beyond acting.
We exist in this weirdly schizo culture, where sex is everywhere in the media, and yet, at the same time, you don't sit down and have a conversation about what you did in bed last night with your friends. Despite the ubiquity of sex, it's still a taboo when it comes to day-to-day conversation.
