Delevingne slams 'totally sexist' superhero movies

Cara Delevingne thinks it's "wonderful" the world is becoming more accepting of same-sex marriages.

The 22-year-old star - who's currently dating female musician St Vincent - has claimed she's always been "open" about being bi-sexual and is delighted attitudes are starting to change.

She told the Daily Mail newspaper: "I've been pretty open about myself from the beginning. I think it's wonderful that you know, it's being accepted more and more. And I think everyone has a right to be whoever they want to be. So I'm just very happy."

Cara also sent a specific message to Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott, calling on him to follow the example of other major nations and legalise same-sex marriage.

She said: "Tony Abbott, you better listen to the rest of the world and carry on. Go with it."

This comes shortly after Cara - who's set to star alongside Will Smith and Margot Robbie in 'Suicide Squad' - blasted superhero movies as "totally sexist".

She said: "There are only three girls in ['Suicide Squad'] but in my opinion they have the best roles. Generally though, superhero movies are totally sexist.

"Female superheroes are normally naked or in bikinis. No one would be able to fight like that. Wonder Woman, how the hell does she fight? She would be dead in a minute."
