I know that I've had a very fortunate life, but also I think my job as an actor is to connect emotionally to human beings.

When the woman is getting paid drastically less than the male, that whole family is impacted.

Of course, a lot of courtship and dating is about sexual attraction. If you're an attractive person, you have that sort of interest from people, whether you cater to it or not, but when you get older, that's not really the leading thing anymore.
