Los Angeles, Nov 13 (IANS): Actor Michael C. Hall does not consider himself "all the way heterosexual".

Discussing his previous homosexual roles as David in "Six Feet Under", Hall told The Daily Beast: "I think there's a spectrum. I am on it. I'm heterosexual. But if there was a percentage, I would say I was not all the way heterosexual.

"I think playing the Emcee required me to fling a bunch of doors wide open because that character I imagined as pansexual. Yeah, like I made out with Michael Stuhlbarg every night doing that show. I think I have always leaned into any fluidity in terms of my sexuality."

But the "Dexter" star said he had never had a sexual relationship with another man, though the death of his father when he was just 11-years-old has made him "crave emotional intimacy" with a guy, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

He said: "I've never had an intimate relationship with a man. I think, maybe because of an absent father, there has definitely been a craving for an emotional intimacy with a man.

"I don't mean to suggest that an emotional relationship between a father and son is any way homoerotic. I mean an emotional intimacy or connection that at least in the milieu I grew up in was considered fey. I had an appetite to have emotional connections with men beyond beer, sports, and fist pumping that were considered 'gay.'"
