Ryan Gosling says he is "49 per cent woman". The 35-year-old actor - who has daughters Esmerelda, 18 months and newborn Amada with partner Eva Mendes - believes women are "better than men" and claims to be extremely in touch with his feminine side. "I've always liked women more. They make me better." He explained: "People don't step outside themselves and make the film they want to make because they're afraid of the reaction. But once you get that reaction, and have lived through it, there's nothing they can do to get you down." He continued on to say, "It's our time as men to be on the receiving end of the stick. I grew up with women so I've always been aware of it. When my mother and I walked to the grocery store, men would circle the block in cars. It was very scary, especially as a young boy. Very predatory; a hunt."
