Sameera Reddy got bold and talked about men and her moves in one of her Stardust interviews.
Check out the spicy but honest interview from a girl who has her head secure on her pretty shoulders:
Do you get excited by naked men?
Look, it varies from woman to woman. While some get sexually excited watching naked men, it doesn't work for me. I was curious about the male anatomy when I was young and thought it was the most erotic thing in the world. But now I am mature enough to control my emotions. In fact women by and large are better at keeping themselves in check than men ever can. However if the sight of an unclothed body turns a woman on, well, that's perfectly natural
Why do women get tagged as sluts or promiscuous when they speak openly about sex or the relationships they are in, while men get away with the tag of a Casanova?
It’s very sad and hypocritical but at the same time I have to agree that it has been in our culture. This segregation for men and women has always been there. So I can’t blame people for thinking like that because that’s what you grow up looking at. But right now, systems are changing as women are becoming empowered and they know what they can do and not do and can fight for it. But I agree that there is an issue with the way women are perceived.
If infidelity was the only way to be with someone you consider your soul mate, would you go for it?
If I meet the man of my dreams, I don’t think I will look outside. I personally feel that you can love people in different ways and I think it’s inhuman to just love one person and say that I would never love someone else. There are different ways of loving people – there is friendship and there’s attraction too. I think in a marriage, you always end up trying to believe that there is only going to be this one person. There are going to be many people in life who will come to test you. I personally believe that when you make a choice of being with one person, you should stick with that person. Because the other person who will come and go will be the infatuation – he or she will be the test that will come to shake you a bit but you have to let go. Considering that person a soul mate is a perception in our heads.
What would you do if your friend’s husband/boyfriend made a pass at you? Would you tell your friend about it?
Uhh! This has happened to me and I have made a big mistake of actually telling the friend and ended up losing that friend. It has not worked for me. Because I guess in a relationship people don’t like to point fingers at your own spouse or at your partner so you always use your friend to point your finger at. So honesty is not always the best policy in this situation. The last time it happened to me, I had distanced myself from them. They never understood and they never will. Actually, I’ve faced three such incidents. The first time, I lost my friend; the second time, the friend believed me and checked out on her guy and later found out that had many affairs; the third time, I stayed out and decided it was none of my business.
Have you ever taken back a cheating partner? Will you?
Wow! Actually, I met a guy recently who told me, ‘Sam, if you think that men in your past have been faithful to you then you have been mistaken because if you think the person you have been with was loyal to you then you are living in a dream world.’ Honestly I have never encountered any situation where I felt that the person was cheating on me. Probably I am blessed or maybe I am ignorant. So if it happens, I wouldn’t know how I would react. I think communication is the most important thing in a relationship. I am a person who is open about things. If my guy comes to me and says he’s attracted to someone else and wants to leave me, I’ll be okay with it. I can’t handle a liar. I really respect honesty.
What’s your take on moral policing?
I think it’s absolutely silly and annoying and I cannot believe it. People are so scared of their society changing and they are so insecure about these so-called bad habits. I personally feel that if you have brought up your family or your community in a certain way then you shouldn’t be scared that an outside influence will shake it up. Why do you have to sit and put this pardah? If the so-called influences are there and if you are strong enough with your principles then you wouldn’t get led by them. So why sit and moral police them?
Have you ever been ashamed of or regretted being in a relationship?
In life, I have not regretted anything. Absolutely nothing! Every relationship – be it with a friend or a boyfriend or a family member – makes you stronger and then you realize that there is so much more for you to learn.
In Malaysia, you got into a scuffle with the security guys of a political leader. Do you think a pretty face is a vulnerable target?
I asked the guy over there, ‘If I were in a burkha, would you have done that?’ And the guy just
