At the age of 42, Halle Berry’s sex life is better than ever. Fresh off of being voted the “Sexiest Woman Alive” by Esquire Magazine, Berry said in an interview with Esquire that things in the bedroom are firing on all cylinders. “(I’m experiencing) pretty damned good orgasms these days,” said Berry. “Much better orgasms than when I was 22.”

The Hollywood star and new mom also told Esquire, “I know damned well I’m sexier now than I used to be.” Berry said she believes that sexy is a state of mind and the awareness of what you yourself find sexy. “To me, spaghetti is sexy,” Berry revealed, “especially when it’s served off the tips of a man’s fingers.”

“I’ve learned my tricks,” Berry said while delving further into her sex life. “I know what I like. I do not wait around. I initiate.“ Berry also said that she would never allow a man to control her orgasm.

Speaking of what she has learned from past sexual partners, Berry admitted that men have taught her a lot about sex. “There are a few men I should thank, and others I need to forget,” she said.
