Me Sherrill (Dragon000) I am a member of the group portrayed in this flick ... in the class of "femme aggressive," and I loved this movie. It appeals on many levels. I love the true stone cold butch and I also love the lipstick femmes ... and all the shades of gray in between. I relate most to Kisha ... tough, in control, independent, and yet capitalizing on my female side when that works for me. A great documentary, but then it sort of felt like the ball was dropped in the end ... no real closure, it felt like. This film was really intense and personal and in your face, but the conclusion did not match up to the footage leading up to it. Still loved it, can't stop watching it actually since it came out on Netflix.
ssrodman I've watched this movie over and over again! When I watch now, I find myself mesmerized by Kisha (yes, I'm a lesbian) and I always forward to her scenes. I love how she's comfortable in her skin and the confidence she displays just comes natural to her. That's why the ladies love her! I wish her the best in her future and I feel we'll be seeing more of Kisha very soon!I wish they would do a "Where are they now?" movie for the ladies. Hey guys, Please feel free to join my fan page for Kisha Batista on Facebook! Let's let her know how much her fans love her and want to see more of her!
imdbyes I did enjoy this documentary but felt that they did not go deep enough, I wanted more from it. I wanted to see more of the underbelly, more of the life, more of what we don;t see, and maybe more with the girlfriends,etc. Also, they didn't spend enough time with Flo. They spend more time with some, and less with others. The snippets of them at the clubs and showing the fashion show competitions and the "femmes" was interesting. I wish the documentary would have been longer. And maybe going back to see how everyone was doing would have been pretty neat too. Also, more on the DVD special features would have been nice. But overall, I did enjoy this documentary.
Monicia_Dilworth I really enjoyed this movie it was very insightful and interesting. It gave a very truthful and honest portrayal of a group of "aggressive" women from what seems like around NY. Being a African American lesbian myself, it was interesting to see how these women lived there lives and handle everyday issues and problems. The word "aggressive" will take on a whole different meaning once you've seen this movie. The only thing about it is the way it ended. You wanted to know more about there lives, maybe here about how they have grown since they started filming. Plus you really didn't hear about this one "aggressive" Flo, but in parts and i feel as if though she would have one of the best back stories. I would suggest this film for any African American lesbian or anyone interested in the life.
