As has been well publicized, Miley Cyrus really wants women to free the nipple.

But in a new interview with E! News, the singer says she wants both genders to free their other private parts as well.

"I think that most of it is just having the conversation and taking away the kind of embarrassment or guilt that people feel attached to sex," Cyrus said in a chat with Marc Malkin.

Miley is the new face of MAC Cosmetics’ Viva Glam campaign.

She’s focused on intercourse at the moment because al proceeds from the hot pink lipstick and lip gloss created by Cyrus benefit the MAC AIDS Fund.

"I think the way sex has been made to be seen as bad or guilty, I think it’s just opening up that conversation that’s saying if you’re doing it, protect yourself. And I think young people need to be talking," Cyrus added.

Cyrus, of course, is clearly comfortable with her own sexuality.

She often poses topless and she once simulated oral sex on a Bill Clinton impersonator.

The artist is no Kim Kardashian; she rarely shills for products, but she’s making an exception in this case.

"This was something… [I’m] shamelessly plugging because it’s going towards such an amazing thing," she says. "Every penny of it! It’s not halfway going to help and halfway paying someone’s salary. It’s a hundred percent!"

Criticize her all you want for other things, but you’ve gotta give Miley credit in this case, don’t you?
