I can't think of a subject that is taboo for me, unless it's one I simply don't know anything about.
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've always been attracted to things that are taboo. I've never been afraid to go to that dark place.
There are no taboos in bed, and there shouldn't be any taboos in bed.
I talk about race a lot. It's been my work ever since I came out of acting school. But it's true that in a way talking about race is a taboo. Because so many of our debates about race have to do not with race but with what we are willing to see, what we will not see and what we don't want to see.
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.
I'm curious about everything. Even subjects that don't interest me.
Partly what I'm writing about is the way taboos get toppled.
I'm drawn to the taboos that surround the human body. I find it fascinating that we are repelled by many of the acts and processes that keep us alive.
