On your website, you refer to yourself as "one of the industry's only genderqueer pornstars." What does genderqueer mean to you? Are there other genderqueer performers you look up to or admire?
For me, “genderqueer” is an identity that allows me to continuously explore how my gender presents itself, particularly within my sexuality.
That was the short answer. The slightly longer version follows a general philosophy of identity politics. I believe gender is polarized in our society and forced to align within two oppositional sexes. I generally dislike theories that simplify our experience as black or white, good or evil, pleasure or pain… I don’t even believe yin & yang has a static quality. I think our world is more complex than what an ‘either/or’ explanation can provide. Of course this is further complicated by the fact that our identity is made up of how we see ourselves as well as how we think that others see us.
