Defying age stereotypes: Sharon Stone on being desired and empowered

Sharon Stone is one of the acting industry's iconic figures who began her career in the 1980s. She has graced numerous films directed by Woody Allen. Her role as the femme fatale Catherine Tramell in the erotic thriller "Basic Instinct," directed by Paul Verhoeven, catapulted her into global stardom.

The actress, in a recent interview, spoke about her sexuality and self-esteem. Her conversation with Keltie Knight highlighted how she still enjoys substantial male attention. "People often think that nobody looks at me anymore. But in reality, there are more individuals who are interested in me sexually than ever," she confessed.

Stone admitted that with passing years, she hasn't been as receptive to every sexual opportunity as she once was. "Men perceive that," she continued, "It's not as easy to get me into bed, nor is it so simple to discard or silence me. And, it's certainly not so easy to leave me afterward."

According to Sharon Stone, self-confidence is critical for maintaining her allure. "You feel more attractive, even sexier than before, because you're at ease," she explained, "You're less consumed by the nagging thought, 'Do I look good?' You already know you do."

The interview elicited an avalanche of comments from the star's fans who were inspired by her frankness. One TikTok user wrote, "The confidence we older women possess radiates from us. When we were younger, we used to be overly concerned about what others thought."

"My mother drew male attention until she passed away at 93. Sharon speaks the truth," another chimed in. A bartender also commented, reinforcing the actress's sentiments, "Everyone's still in the game," we read. "Sharon Stone has always been captivating," another netizen added.
