London, Feb 20: Eva Mendes has revealed that her mom taught her to enjoy being feminine and celebrate being a woman.

Mendes, 37, who has the reputation of being one of Hollywood’s hottest actresses, spoke about her mother’s influence in an interview.

“My mother, also called Eva, taught me to enjoy being feminine and celebrate being a woman. We women carry a lot of power. I don’t ever want to abuse it,” the Sun quoted her as saying.

“I am not a seducer, tapping guys on the shoulder at a bar. But I do flirt. It goes no further than that. I go to bed with my boyfriend, no one else.

“It took me a long time to communicate with men because of the sort of teenage insecurity we all have. In my experience, men are attracted to confidence above anything else. It is sexy,” she said.

The ‘Hitch’ star said that her mom’s attitude has helped her.

“She told me to never hide how I am and just be myself. We all want to change, but would being five inches taller or a dress size smaller make you happier?” she said. (ANI)
