Tim Gunn revealed his celibacy Tuesday, but added, 'I don't know what's around the corner.'

Tim Gunn made it very clear Tuesday that nothing will be off limits on his new daytime talk show, "The Revolution" — including himself.

The "Project Runway" mentor opened up about his nearly 30-year sexual dry spell on the show, but said he had nothing to be ashamed of.

"I haven't had sex in 29 years," he revealed. "Do I feel like less of a person for it? No. Not even remotely."

Gunn, 58, explained that a former lover had so scarred him in all matters intimate that he just hasn't had a sexual relationship since.

"I was in a very intense relationship for a long time and my partner ended it, saying quite frankly that he was impatient with my sexual performance," he said. "It was at the cusp of AIDS, and I think a lot of people simply retreated because they were concerned about their health.

"I'm a perfectly fulfilled person ... but it's very psychological," he said.

Gunn, who is openly gay, added that just because he has gone nearly three decades without sex doesn't mean he isn't open to possibilities down the line, however.

"I have feelings. It's not as though I am some barren forest," he said. "I don't want to imply to anyone that I have a mandate that says no sex. I don't know what's around the corner.

"I'm happy to be healthy and alive, quite frankly."
