The US bombed them back to traditional values – feminism does not exist in Japan. While I don’t like judging an entire culture…that does not excuse them.

I got to focus on my performance - learning how to perform is something I've been working on both personally and professionally.

My writer and I sat down and wrote a huge list of names of women to consider. It was really important to us to have a broad range of women from across generations and cultures. We didn't want to make it Western-focused, we wanted to make sure it was international and that it had an intersectional lens.

There’s no such thing as sexism against men. That's because sexism is prejudice + power. Men are the dominant gender with power in society.

There is a clear difference between sexist parody and parody of sexism. Sexist parody encourages the players to mock and trivialize gender issues while parody of sexism disrupts the status quo and undermines regressive gender conventions.

I wanted to make feminism more accessible. And I really wanted to engage with my own generation, one that is increasingly speaking in an audio/video multimedia language.

It's been really exciting to work on a collaborative, creative team where we got to bounce ideas back and forth and figure out the best one.
