A good quip

I'm never going to agree to Weeded Out: the trilogy. I'd give it to you for free if you genuinely think you could produce it, though, Ahi and GMA. I'm sure there's plenty of trans filmmakers who could really make the most out of that material. 👋🏳️‍⚧️ Personally, I'll probably bring up my documentary next time I visit. -


I don't want to direct or write or produce fiction atm. I'm so sick of making movies, and this is the absolute worst of all possible worlds: I mean, imagine being told by some straight, cis man that your script about the trans community isn't acceptable.


Hence, I've decided to remove my body from the equation: if they can't buy my script on the merits of the script alone, then they can fuck off and admit that they only want my body and basically wish that I wasn't trans (which isn't ok). That's fine, but this is why I prefer to have total control over every aspect of how my body is displayed in the media, and that's been my overarching goal for the last several years. Shades of Me and my EP are both solid examples of that, though Karl filmed the Chorale and Stephen filmed one or two tracks. - My porn is where I have fun with the crap that otherwise haunts my days. But notice that there's not a single full nude in my DeviantArt profile... I find nakedness less sexy, partly due to my own prudishness. I like to imagine sex with clothes on. I dunno why, but that's usually how I cum. Re: me and sex, I'm basically ace. If I get to know someone really well, that makes me more interested, but I'm more comfortable with people like Lucinda, who doesn't touch as an instinct. I realise that I'm quite flirty, though. I like flirting, and that's probably the Italian in me. 🥝👍
