Cynthia Nixon hasn`t changed her "sexual orientation"
The `Sex and the City` actress - whose fiancee Christine Marinori gave birth to the couple`s baby son Max in February - explained despite having been in relationships with men all her life, she found it natural when she fell in love with another woman.
She said: "In terms of sexual orientation, I don`t really feel I`ve changed. I`d been with men all my life, and I`d never fallen in love with a woman. But when I did, it didn`t seem so strange.
"I`m just a woman in love with another woman."
Before she embarked on her relationship with Christine, Cynthia - who shot to fame playing lawyer Miranda Hobbs in `Sex and the City` - always spoke out in favour of women in same-sex partnerships.
She added to Australia`s Daily Telegraph newspaper: "Before I ever dated a woman, I`d go to GLAAD (Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation) events and make speeches.
"I did a lot of speaking about funding for public schools, women`s right to choose and breast cancer."
Cynthia - who has been dating Christine since 2003 and has two children, Samantha, 14, and Charlie, nine, with her ex-boyfriend Danny Mozes - recently admitted her ideal man is a woman.
She said: "I have to say that in terms of the particular person I`m with I guess I do feel that the ideal man is a woman. I feel that she`s much more intuitive about what`s going on with me. She is much more willing to treat it like a partnership."
