Bisexual actress Gillian Anderson’s new book ‘Want’ is a collection of anonymous confessions from women seeking an outlet to share their deepest desires. The book, inspired by ‘My Secret Garden: Women’s Sexual Fantasies’ by Nancy Friday, features many Queer stories of longing. Choosing just five confessions to share was a challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI\u2019m still a human being with thoughts, feelings and desires. Desires that include an older woman who sees my disabilities as a part of me and not the whole of me. One who challenges me intellectually, spiritually, physically, even. One who isn’t afraid to show me her vulnerability, but also who will take charge… while still considering my physical and neurological disabilities and needs.\u201d \u201cPart of me is stuck in a closet, unable to relate to my Queer friends or seek solace in the Asexual\/aromantic community. Navigating Queer love and sex feels unimaginably isolating when every time I find a woman attractive, I fear that it will come across as predatory, and any time I find a man attractive, I question my own feelings, wondering if they are true or if it’s the patriarchal conditioning of society.\u201d
