[John]

Tom Hardy has admitted to experimenting with his sexuality when he was younger.

According to the Daily Mail, the Inception actor told Now that he no longer feels attracted to men.

Asked if he had ever had sexual relations with someone of the same gender, Hardy said: "As a boy? Of course I have. I'm an actor for f**k's sake.

"I've played with everything and everyone. I love the form and the physicality, but now that I'm in my 30s, it doesn't do it for me."

He added: "I'm done experimenting but there's plenty of stuff in a relationship with another man, especially gay men, that I need in my life.

"A lot of gay men get my thing for shoes. I have definite feminine qualities and a lot of gay men are incredibly masculine.

"I feel intrinsically feminine. I'd love to be one of the boys but I always felt a bit on the outside. Maybe my masculine qualities come from overcompensating because I'm not one of the boys."
