Michelle Rodriguez talks about her sexuality

It appears Michelle Rodriguez isn’t backing off from her angry girl image. She seems to think the rest of the world is pretty disgusting – and perverse. In fact it seems like any talk or thought of sex seems perverse and invasive to her. Michelle gave an interview to Latina magazine, in which she talks about her sexuality. The magazine notes that people have always wondered if she’s gay or straight – a question she doesn’t answer. But she sure gives some interesting thoughts on sex – and why people are so obsessed with wanting to know her orientation.

"What the majority of [people] want to know is what I'm doing with my vagina, and I think that that's sick," she says over the phone from New Zealand, where she's shooting the new James Cameron film Avatar. "What do you care who I'm dating? I can tell when somebody just wants to know about sex. And it makes me sick."

… "Every time you see a woman who walks down the street, you think, 'is she f*ckable?'" she says, when we ask why she thinks there is enduring interest in her love life, "Any woman who is in some way f*ckable, you know, if she's beautiful, or if she has a nice body, you wonder what kind of things that person does with their private area." She goes on to say, "It’s a very perverse way of thinking, but it's the way that the majority of adults in the United States and around the world think. Or the porn industry wouldn't be the highest grossing industry in the world."

Michelle notes that she’s a tomboy and doesn’t care how she looks or what people think of her – and that makes her intriguing. It’s a pretty rare attitude for a woman in Hollywood, and makes you wonder why she ever wanted to be a part of that industry. She also gives a pretty vivid image of exactly what she thinks of journalists and bloggers who want to know if she’s a lesbian.

"I picture them turning into pigs, slime coming out the side of their mouth, and I picture them jerking off," she says of the journalists and bloggers who she believes are constantly trying to 'out' her: "I don't answer those questions. I just keep it to myself and it's nobody's business. If I wanna f*ck a girl, a boy, a dog—that's my business. That's why there's bathroom doors."

Um…. Wow. I actually don’t have a comeback for that. Michelle’s orientation is definitely her business, that’s true. I’m so stuck on trying not to imagine the slime vomit pigs that I’m having a hard time figuring out what else to say. I think another part of the reason people often want to know is because she’s such a “I’m gonna tell you what I think” type who never bites her tongue. She appears confident and tough. So I guess it just seems like she’d be someone who would say, “Yeah, I am, so what?” but with a lot more swear words.
