Scott Eastwood is totally calling out the paparazzi … but not for invading his privacy!

The 30-year-old actor was recently snapped frolicking on the beach next to a bikini-clad brunette in Australia, though what’s actually an innocent splash fight in the ocean hilariously looks a lot like something else. Eastwood sticks his tongue out in the pic while his hand is in the water, leading some to wonder what exactly he’s trying to do with his right hand.

 

“Thank you Sydney paparazzi for trying to capture my playful side, but instead making me look like a total creep,” he joked on Instagram on Sunday. “Can’t a guy have an innocent splash fight in peace? At least let me put my tongue away next time.  #loveit.”

“S^^ is healthy, people. Don’t shame it, embrace it,” Eastwood said. “Everyone should be having sex. With themselves, or with someone else.”

The Pacific Rim: Uprising star revealed he’s currently “single and dating,” and “having s**… lots of it.”

“It’s the most natural thing we as human beings do,” he explained, bringing up the fact that talking about sex is often times considered “taboo” in North America. “I think there’s a shaming thing with women, too, which really sucks. Where they use these terrible words, like ‘whore’ and ‘slut.’ And instead of embracing sexual culture, women put each other down. And it’s like, ‘Why the f**k would you call them that?’ Just because they f**ked somebody? Like, what? F**k you! Don’t do that — you’re bringing down the culture.”

“[It’s important to have] a healthy sex life and understanding that it’s OK to talk about sex,” he added. “Above all, being able to know that you should never be ashamed or embarrassed about your sex life.”

Eastwood continued on, explaining that he believes it’s important to communicate with your partner, and have discussions about what you find pleasurable (and what you’re willing to try or learn) at the beginning of a new relationship.

“I remember in early on relationships, when I was in my early 20s, I felt more sexually advanced than some of the people I was with,” he shared. “I had been down a darker road, and so then trying to reverse engineer to grow with them, it can be tough, ’cause you’re like, ‘I’m not there.'”

“Like, you have to be comfortable with oral sex, because I want to do that to you,” he added. “And a lot of times [women at that age] are not comfortable yet. And that’s an uphill thing, right? It’s like Tetris.”
