The Younger star is dabbling in polyamory and hopes to be a bisexual role model. 

It's always exciting to see how brands and publications embrace Pride for the first time. And Alexa, the magazine from the NY Post is no exception.

Covering their inaugural Pride issue, Nico Tortorella, the bisexual star of TV Land's Younger, dished about fighting his way into the entertainment industry and, of course, his sexuality.

"I fall somewhere under the bisexual umbrella," said Torotrella, who came out as sexually fluid some time ago and is currently exploring polyamory. "There are a few people in my life right now," he said, "Men, women, and there is space for more."

Though Tortorella's sexuality gives him an uncommon voice in the Hollywood industry, he recognizes the privilege of his social identifiers. "I am a white, cisgender-passing bisexual man, and I realize that not everyone has that privilege," he said. "At the end of the day, will it affect my career? Possibly." The actor went on to say that he doesn't think there have been many positive bisexual role models in the world, but that people with different stories should be eager to share them.
