Beyonce covers OUT magazine, channels her inner Marilyn Monroe

Beyonce covers OUT’s ” Power” Issue.

Beyonce looks amazing on the cover of OUT magazine – a magazine dedicated to the gay and lesbian lifestyle.

Here’s a quote from ” Beyonce Liberated” which is available on OUT now.

Out: Your new album is also your most sexually liberated project. The confidence and maturity and the fantasy speak to women almost as if in code. How do you create this conversation?

Beyoncé: I’d like to believe that my music opened up that conversation. There is unbelievable power in ownership, and women should own their sexuality. There is a double standard when it comes to sexuality that still persists. Men are free and women are not. That is crazy. The old lessons of submissiveness and fragility made us victims. Women are so much more than that. You can be a businesswoman, a mother, an artist, and a feminist—whatever you want to be—and still be a sexual being. It’s not mutually exclusive.
