AceShowbiz - Tatum O'Neal, who became the youngest Oscar winner at age 10 in 1974, opens up on the new turn in her love life. "I like women," she tells PEOPLE. "I definitely have been dating mostly women recently." When it comes to identifying her sexuality, she insists, "I'm not one or the other."
"I think women are the most amazing creatures on earth," the now 51-year-old actress explains. "They're gentle, and also more intelligent than the men that I've met recently. I don't have a steady right now, but I look forward to it."
Tatum Beatrice O'Neal, the daughter of Hollywood couple Joanna Moore and Ryan O'Neal, was previously married to tennis star John McEnroe. Their 1992 separation led to a long custody battle over their children.
They have three children, Kevin, 29; Sean, 28; and Emily, 24. The oldest son is the author of "Our Town", a fictionalized account of the life and struggles of Joanna Moore.
