Actors and others in the industry usually don’t follow sexual norms, and never have. For that matter, they don’t follow any other norms, either. Extrapolating behavior from this very small subset of women will lead to incorrect conclusions.
I’m in my mid fifties, married, one adult child. I live in Texas, which isn’t what I’d call the heartland. I’ve never been clubbing, and for that matter, I’ve never been drunk. The most alcohol I’ve ever had in a 24 hour period would be the equivalent of 2 or 3 drinks (it was basically a supersized mojito).
Quite possibly I’m old enough to have lived in the time when Rob Lowe (whoever he is, I know I’ve heard the name but can’t place him) picked up a lesbian couple. However, I try to avoid celeb news. Really, I don’t care about which actor is doing which other actor. I don’t care who is in rehab. And I don’t really care much about celebs’ sex lives, for the most part. I was rather surprised to find out that Raymond Burr was gay, but the only reason I remember it is because my father used to watch Perry Mason all the time, and I’d watch it with him, and I made a mental note to never bring this up in front of Daddy.
The thing is, people who are in showbiz tend to have a distorted view of what people who AREN’T in the biz do and think. Yeah, some people love to follow certain celebrities, and will describe in tedious detail the minutiae of their obsession’s lives. But those people aren’t the norm, either…it’s just that the celebs will hear from and about these people more often, in a self-perpetuating cycle.
Good point…but you’ve never been to a club before nor a party I’m guessing, so how would you know what happens? I’m not sure if about the club scene he’s talking about regular women or models. Either way my point still stands…the majority of girls I know by far are bi or les, although not as extreme as below makes it, so I’m asking my question.
