Star Sarah Shahi says that Netflix's new series Sex/Life focuses on female pleasure, highlights stories of female desire, and hopes to open up conversations about the way we look at sex.
Let's talk car sex.
More specifically, let's talk about car sex in an early episode of Sex/Life. It's Netflix's addictive new series starring Sarah Shahi, Mike Vogel and Adam Demos, and it's TV. Shahi plays Billie, a mother of two young children who lives in a beautiful suburban Connecticut home and is married to her doting husband Cooper (Vogel). But x life doesn't exist - or worse, frustratingly embarrassing - she can't help but think back to her onetime boyfriend Brad (Demos), a record company executive with serious commitment issues - they When was it not! ーー Still, he gave her the best x orgasm of her life.
This is a dilemma! That's why Billie and Cooper end up in their family car, trying to spice things up with car x love. "The seat got in the way, the chair got stuck, and then I accidentally put my knee on his balls," Shahi recalled with a smile. "Then my breast milk started splashing all over his face...these sex scenes. So real, so vivid, you know?"
Sex is basically one of the main elements in the Sex/Life series. But there are plenty of intimate scenes in the series for good reason, Shahi explained. She hopes the show will spark conversations among female audiences, open up conversations about desire and sensuality, and encourage women to never settle for anything.
VA: When you first read the script, what was your favorite thing about Billie's character?
Sarah Shahi: "She's the kind of character who lives a full life. She's dynamite in a box. A part of me is so desperate to feel like I'm settling down and I want more than my life offers, like Same with Billie. I see a lot of myself in her."
VA: Is this kind of female character you feel you see a lot in pop culture?
SS: "I think it's totally revolutionary...it's a female-led show written mostly by female writers and filmed entirely by female directors - it's a real opportunity to express femininity and female empowerment And even this show goes a step further and talks about sex, I think it's the first show that really takes the topics of marriage and relationships and motherhood, all those things that we have in our heads but we never say out loud. Like, you can Be a good mom but still have x desires. You can have a long term relationship and have kids but still want to be a sex goddess and you deserve a partner who respects you for that and the show does those things A deep and raw observation."
VA: How did working with a female director change the way x love shots are shot?
SS: “We have four female directors, and they’re split into two episodes each. The refreshing comfort of working with women on a show like this is that when it comes to intimacy and emotional vulnerability, what I’m portraying Something that everyone feels in some way. Whether it's about the way a woman is pleased, or the struggles of trying to be a mother, or the complexities of dealing with a relationship you're not happy with. Here's us What everyone has in common. (Female director filming) is a safety device and I would be lying if I said the reassurance would be the same if a male director filmed because I don’t think it’s the same, just because we There are different parts! It feels very safe, liberating and free to be with a group of women."
VA: You have an intimacy coordinator on Sex/Life, Kathy Hedecki. Have you worked with someone like this before?
Cheryl: "I've never worked with them before. All the TV shows I've done in the past, most of it has been programmed. People pay me to wear clothes! Intimacy coordinators are essential. We will Discuss everything. First, the way the x love scene is written is very detailed. Usually when you have an x ​​love scene, it's generally "the characters are having sex" (a description like that). This is just left to the actors and the director as a Very vague explanation. I think that's where people feel restrained and awkward sometimes, maybe you don't see a good scene on the screen. But here, every detail is designed, every single thing we do The words are all on the paper... For me, I think it's really important not to put the erotic stuff in there, but to put something in there that really tells the story of these characters through sex. It's not just a sex scene shot for eyeballs, we're actually telling the story the way we're loving. So for us, things like breathing become very important. Like, our breathing right now is What kind of? Is it hot and heavy, or is it slow and more eye contact, like your breath is being silenced. It's these little details that help us tell the emotional story of these characters through the x love scenes. "
VA: When you look back on everything you did in Sex/Life, what are you most proud of?
SS: "The message we got was incredible. We encouraged men and women to really embrace who they are. This is a story about a woman with an identity crisis. She seemed to have everything on paper, but she had the courage to say it It's not enough, I'm not satisfied, I want more. I think it's important to admit that you have desires. As a human, you have needs and x desires, and that's okay. You know, you can be a mother and still want Sensibility, you can be a parent and still want to feel these things. You should still be piqued by your partner of 30 years, if you're not, then really go out and find the version of your life that makes you happy! But most importantly The thing is, it's a fantasy, emotional journey...you just want more. I want people to just enjoy it the way it is."
VA: Why do you think some women have become so detached from their desires?
SS: "I think we're on the wrong track. There was even an episode where I talked to Cooper about it and I said do you think it's easy for me to admit that I'm not happy with our x life? From when I was five, I've been told good girls shouldn't want anything. I think in the old days of movies and TV, if you were a woman who was horny, or you had sex with a lot of partners, or if you wanted to in some way Get excited in a certain way, then you're considered a bad person. You're a nasty person...I think over the years we've started to hide that part of ourselves. Only recently have we started to encourage women, mothers, people to come forward and find out Own x abilities. Proud of these desires we have."
VA: People get addicted to this show. What was the last show you binge-watched?
SS: "Sex/Life! Honestly, I'm obsessed with it. I know I sound like a jerk promoting my show, but it's true. I've watched this show back and forth so many times, and I've found one A way to separate myself from the characters I see, I'm incredibly proud of all the hard work the actors put in and the origins of the filmmaking, I'm just obsessed with the music - the soundtrack blew me away! It's something I've become addicted to lately .""

Obviously, this is a very good female perspective work, only women can stare at men like this:

Putting a man in the traditional "woman" position makes him a "woman"! It may be the first time I have seen a female lead filming a sleeping man, calling him sleepy beauty and saying that it is a pity not to take such a beautiful butt! Come to this kind of plot where women objectify men and stare at men! Shoot me like this!

sex/life vividly explains what it means to put a man in the position of a woman, and he will become a woman. Billie's husband found out that Billie missed his old lover, and did things including but not limited to dressing up and inviting Billie to go on a date, challenging different lefties. The way of love rekindles love, stalks Billie's ex to see what's good in him, imitates Billie's ex, runs to Billie's ex's office to make a scene...

At the same time, this is a sex life that describes women as the subject.

And the heroine's husband was shot in the face by the heroine? ? ? Finally, there is a man on the big screen who is slapped by a woman's face hahaha

By the way, sex/life may still be the American drama with the most males in the restricted-level heterosexual heroine dramas being women's mouths/hands

Equal rights in boat play starts from giving more mouths and hands to women!

I think it's ironic when I think of the news that the idiot DC won't let the rotten man give to women because the Men's Super League doesn't do this...

In sex/life, the sisterhood of Billie and Sasha is also very good. After the two men said the mantra that men are like clothes and sisters are like brothers and sisters, they exchanged their hooking objects and continued to fuck them. ! ! ! What's worse is still in the back. After the two men finished fucking the man, they started to chase DDL again. The two men hooked up with their butts on the bed and continued to sleep until the morning. The women just finished their papers. After complimenting each other, the boys woke up. Smell where there is breakfast, the hostess replied to the street shop to buy them by themselves. By the way, remember to bring us bagels, baked! The sexual transformation of the classic homosocial hahahahaha this kind of female friendship is more! ! !

Really like this part? The core of Sex/Life is the perfect intersection of feminism x race issues, I love it? This is the beauty of female screenwriters, white male screenwriters can't write such a script , a complete lack of empathy for women.

It is this third way that makes Billie realize that monogamy cannot satisfy her inner feelings, and it also makes people question the necessity of monogamy: like, Billie and Cooper, in the end, both Not separated, but obviously not content with being monogamous (but does anyone really think Cooper is a good husband?? One is not very involved in parenting, two is possessive and controlling, and the whole thing happened because he peeked at Billie's diary. Sanshuangbiao can do this and that at a sex party, but Billie can't. Giving someone a seat can be considered a great advantage. Is this a self-confident man); Devon and Trina, participating in a sex party seems to make them happier; Sasha, not sure She wanted to be with Alex all the time; not to mention Brad, never married...

PS. In fact, half of the show I have been worried that this show will go back conservatively and return to monogamy, which is similar to the third story of the fatal woman, but the final ending surprised me (*≧ω≦), so Billie has to live it Fucking the happy life of city boys and suburban boys raising children hahahahahahahaha thank you, this non-doll is so cool, of course Sanguan Party and clean party dolls are not suitable for watching this drama XD
