Lea 0 Report post Posted February 29, 2008 Would You Hit It? Every now and again a lovely lady lad will come along and give me the sex quivers. KD Lang (don't ask) and Dani from A Shot At Love are two of those women as is Tilda Swinton. I can't explain the Tilda thing. It's probably the flaming red hair, the long fingers and the Mr. Burns physique. I would definitely dress up like a magical lion princess for her, because crazy bitch is probably into that role playing shit. http://www.dlisted.com/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tilda, 47, and John have an open relationship and the actress has been enjoying a relationship with 29-year-old German painter Sandro Kopp. Byrne said: “It’s all very relaxed and amicable. We have not hidden away and Jeanine is very much part of my life. Tilda knows all about it and is more than happy with the situation. It’s all very relaxed and amicable. “Tilda has Sandro and the arrangement works very well.” The unmarried couple have twin children – 10-year-old Xavier and Honor - and live together in Scotland. John also revealed that Jeanine has met his family and Tilda’s lover. He is quoted by Britain’s Daily Express newspaper as saying: “Jeanine has met my children as well as Tilda.

sanlee 49 Report post Posted November 8, 2009 Tilda Swinton's Teenage Misery Tilda Swinton is glad she wasn't a beautiful teenager. The 'Burn After Reading' actress insists she has always been comfortable with her androgynous appearance and was happy to be a "strange" adolescent. She said: "When I was nine or 10 I wasn't pretty anymore - which is a big advantage. It must be a nightmare to be a beautiful teenager. "I got this strange kind of androgyny. I was everything girls don't want to be - incredibly tall, incredibly thin, unimpressive. For years it's still been possible to hide as a sexual being." The 48-year-old 'Chronicles of Narnia' star admits she also felt her teenage years were lacking because she was isolated away from other popular pastimes due to attending a strict boarding school. She added: "I was at boarding school which was very strict, no make-up, no boys, no parties, no pop music. That was quite terrible because I had no access to pop culture at all. I get still angry when I think of it. "Being kept away from pop music as a teenager is to be kept away from your generation and even be kept away in some way from sex. As a teenager it is very important to be linked with the sexual impulses of popular music. Somehow I managed to get through this school and got a different kind of identity."

sanlee 49 Report post Posted April 3, 2010 Tilda Swinton: 'Family set-up is normal' Tilda Swinton is baffled by interest in her friendship with her ex-partner - because she's convinced it's possible to "love people you're not sleeping with." The Oscar winner has 12-year-old twins with playwright John Byrne, but has been enjoying a romance with German boyfriend Sandro Kopp, 18 years her junior, for the last few years. Swinton is still friendly with Byrne and his new girlfriend - and the four adults even live together at her home in Scotland. But she refuses to believe that the domestic set-up is unconventional, and maintains it is healthy for the twins, Honor and Xavier, to have four caring adults in their lives. In an interview with the London Evening Standard, she says, "(The kids are) quadruply loved! Listen, what I find really amusing, although I'm not really aware of people's fantasies about us, but the thing that bemuses and amuses me, is that people assume that we're not talking about two monogamous relationships. Of course we are. John Byrne and I had these two extraordinary children together and couldn't be happier about it. We haven't been together as a couple for many years, since which time we both happily engaged in other relationships. "And all of us just really like each other. Please tell me that's not really unusual, please tell me lots of people live in this way. Whenever people tell me it's extraordinary, it saddens my heart because it makes it sound like acrimony is the norm. That people not getting on with the parents of their children is the norm. Well, I don't believe it is. I think countless families live like we do, and life goes on. It's perfectly possible to love people you're not sleeping with. Everyone knows that." source: http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/blogs/sfgate...7#ixzz0k4H6v6yP Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Freckles 79 Report post Posted April 4, 2010 No. Alas, "normal" would have been they would have married, had kids, both cheated with other partners, gone to therapy, had a bitter and divorce, dragged the children from house to house, grown tired of their new lovers, and moved on. Their relationship mayn't be normal, but it sounds as though it might work for them. Who knows? "Traditional" marriages ain't faring so well these days.

I do know people who've had divorces that weren't acrimonious and they've been able to do things together (with the kids) and the new spouses. Not live together, perhaps. But still - acrimony doesn't have to be the norm! (at my wedding, I had 3 dads and 3 moms :-) And no one killed anyone else..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Freckles 79 Report post Posted April 4, 2010 Agreed! And, good for your family for being able to work things out sanely. I wish more families could do that. Sadly, I do think that most don't. Tilda's set up would have horrified me when I was an idealistic/romantic 20 year-old but now I'm more glad that they've found a situation that seems to work relatively well for all of them.
