Lily Gladstone Embraces Her Evolving Sexuality Amid New Film's Success
HuffPost
The "Wedding Banquet" actor has long eschewed traditional labels but now says she might be demisexual.
Lily Gladstone continues to clarify her sexuality as her queer-inclusive romantic comedy is charming critics and audiences alike.
Speaking to the U.K.’s The Times in an interview published Friday, Gladstone opened up about her role as one half of a Seattle lesbian couple in “The Wedding Banquet,” while calling herself “queer,” “pansexual” and “straight.”
Recently, the “Killers of the Flower Moon” star ― who is of Indigenous heritage ― also has found herself identifying as demisexual.
“I can’t put a label on it,” the “Killers of the Flower Moon” star told the outlet. “One of the big things that tipped me to my queerness is I don’t have the draw to motherhood the way a lot of women have. There was a period of my life when I thought I might be asexual because I had no sexual attraction to anybody. I had a romantic attraction to everybody but no sexual desire.”
“Then the word ‘demisexual’ came into play, where it’s, like, I don’t feel sexual stirring at all unless I actually care about this person, no matter who they are,” she added, but did not specify if she currently has a partner.
