The 27-year old star said that after the "Young Hollywood" issue, she was in tears and, that she wasn't comfortable in the dress they made her wear. Despite feeling uncomfortable, she had to make do with the outfit because there was no time to alter it.

Wood also remembered that she, along with the other actresses, was made to line up while the production staff evaluated her.

She shared that she wanted to be comfortable and chose to wear flats; however, she was told that she couldn't because heels looked better.

"I felt like meat. Since then, I have found my voice. Never again," she posted on Twitter.

However, the actress shared that after the 2003 cover, she has appeared on Vanity Fair again and her recent experience was a lot better, referring to it as "lovely".

The actress also attributed the bullying to her being young at that time, saying that you are more susceptible to bullying when you are young, shy and inexperienced.

Wood is no longer that shy, young girl from the 2003 feature. She has since been very vocal about her views and, who she is.

Not hesitating to admit to the public of her bisexuality, Wood shared that her sexual orientation has always been that way for as long as she could remember and that it is a big part of who she is as a person.

Wood is reportedly dating "The L Word" actress Katherine Moennig.
