My first time in a lesbian club, I was kind of like a deer in headlights. It was interesting to be in this world that felt very binary; there were people who clearly identified as more stud or AG [aggressive], and then people identified as more femme, and I’m there in a turtleneck and jeans, so I’m, like, neither. [laughs] Also, I was surprised by some of the misogyny, I guess, that’s being recreated in this environment. I was like, wait, this is a lesbian club? Why are we bringing this part over? So I was just kind of not sure how to take it all in, so I was both attracted, I was on my heels… It was like a mix of feelings. That first scene is inspired by that. I think that Khia song actually came on, and I was like, “Oh my God, I’m going to hell. Right now. Immediately.
