Kirsten Stewart opened up about why she loves keeping her sexuality ambiguous in a new interview for Paris’ Mastermind Magazine. 

“Yeah, ambiguity is my favorite thing ever. In terms of sexuality? For sure,” Stewart says. “And also in making films, if you perfectly answer every question, you don’t allow for people to have their own experience and really indulge a thought. I feel the same way about how we f— each other. You don’t want to know everything all the time.”

The 28-year-old actress has been linked to both men and women including a high-profile relationship with her “Twilight” co-star Robert Pattinson. Stewart is currently dating model Stella Maxwell. While hosting “Saturday Night Live” in February 2017, Stewart called herself “so gay” during her opening monologue. She also told Harper’s Bazaar in 2017 that would be open to dating men again.

Stewart also got candid about the way women’s sexuality is presented in film versus male sexuality.

“Right now, I’m so aware of the fact that we’ve watched, cinematically, men and their way into their bodies and do physical things that feel fundamental to this male perspective,” she said. “In every coming-of-age story we see about a young girl, even if it’s the truest, most sincere thing, what’s lacking is the physical honesty of actual female experience and the way we discover our bodies. It’s, like, we’re scared of using certain words.”

Stewart’s latest project is in the lesbian-themed Lizzie Borden biopic “Lizzie” starring opposite Chloë Sevigny.
