Willow Smith, known for her hit song “Whip My Hair,” recently engaged with a trending chart called “Scale of Me” on Instagram. In this chart, she filled in her responses using a sunflower emoji to indicate her preferences.
The 23-year-old artist placed herself on the scale for various aspects of her identity. She positioned her gender between non-binary and female, while her sexuality fell between hetero and bi-pan. When it came to relationship preferences, Willow placed herself closer to poly, indicating a preference for non-monogamous relationships.
This isn’t the first time Willow has been open about her sexuality. In 2021, she discussed being polyamorous on Red Table Talk alongside her mother, Jada Pinkett Smith, and grandmother, Adrienne Banfield-Norrison. Willow expressed her desire to create relationship structures that align with her values and personal freedom, rather than conforming to societal norms.
She highlighted her discomfort with the historical context of traditional marriage and emphasized the importance of creating relationship dynamics that work for individuals. Willow also pointed out that infidelity, a common reason for divorce, could potentially be mitigated by embracing polyamory.
