What’s your greatest fear?
Not having an impact on the world and dying alone.

Pick three people, living or dead, who you think would make the most fascinating dinner guests imaginable.
Rachel Maddow. If I had the opportunity to meet her, I’d probably cum. Graham Norton, because I think he’d be a trip. And President Obama, because I think it’d be an interesting conversation.

What would you serve?
Paleo-approved food. I’m a big advocate of the Paleo diet. I eat five-to-six times a day and I’m never hungry. You basically eat meat, raw vegetables, anything that would have been available to cavemen.

How would you describe your dream guy?
Passionate – not just in bed, but about life. Meaning he has a cause, enthusiasm, something he believes in. Someone who loves to travel, likes fun, adventure. A guy who’s not afraid to hold hands in public.

Define good in bed.
Someone who appreciates that sex is not perfect or clean, and can roll over and be fine with being completely sweaty. It should be fun, not scripted or choreographed.

Who should star in a movie about your life?
A good British actor who’s not skinny. Let’s say Ewan McGregor.

Who was your first celebrity crush?
Christopher Reeve.

Who gets on your nerves?
People who are ignorant about HIV and how it’s spread, or use the word ”clean” to try and disparage HIV-positive people.
