Ever since Director Sebastián Lelio's Disobedience premiered at TIFF in 2017, it's been the talk of the town among the five queer women who care about this kind of stuff.

[8] Dattilo's character only appeared in episode. The series was cancelled four episodes later. Lily Aldrin ( Alyson Hannigan) and Robin Scherbatsky ( Cobie Smulders).

Peyton and Brooke are both regular characters.Lucy Spiller ( Courteney Cox) and Tina Harrod ( Jennifer Aniston). [11] The episode hints at a former intimate relationship between the two. Tina never reappears on the series. As am I. Representation always matters, whether it's in the Halls of Congress or at your local independent theater. Queer women deserve to have their queer female sex represented on screen, without it devolving into typical pornographic tropes: shaved vaginas, sorority sisters, giant jiggly boobs, foot-long dildos, scissoring, a well-hung neighbor guy who just "pops in" for a threesome, etc. There's absolutely nothing wrong with any of these erotic ingredients, per se, but it's formulaic and not particularly representational of most queer sex. Maggie ( Christina Ricci) and Amanda ( Ashley Greene). Amanda comforts a sad Maggie by wiping Maggie's tears, then telling her opinion on men, and kissing her. Greene's character was recurring; her sexual orientation formed part of a recurring story arc. Maggie's reaction to the kiss was discussed in later episodes. Gia ( Rumer Willis) and Adrianna ( Jessica Lowndes) kiss after bonding at an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting. Willis' character was a recurring role.

Miranda Hobbes and Syd ( Joanna Adler). Miranda kisses Syd to prove that she, Miranda, is not a lesbian, and Syd never re-appears.Billie Chambers ( Tiffani Thiessen) and Sara Matthews ( Jaime Pressly). Sara never reappears on the series. Ally McBeal and Ling Woo ( Lucy Liu). These episodes are unusual in that all of the women involved are series regulars. Jordan Cavanaugh ( Jill Hennessy) and Detective Tallulah "Lu" Simmons ( Leslie Bibb). Episode hints at the possible bisexuality of lead character Jordan. Bibb was a recurring cast member.

Julia Salinger ( Neve Campbell) and Perry Marks ( Olivia d'Abo). Perry appears in one additional episode. Marissa Cooper (Mischa Barton) and Alex Kelly ( Olivia Wilde). Alex leaves the series four episodes later. I also love the way Sebastián chose to shoot it. It was storyboarded. All the wetness, the spitting in the mouth, the pubic hair, the vaginas, but also leaving some of it to the audience to imagine. Where is the other woman’s mouth, where are her fingers? It was important for him to focus on our faces to really capture that desire. There’s something very spiritual about their sex. I’m really proud of it." The " lesbian kiss episode" is a subgenre of the media portrayal of lesbianism in American television media, created in the 1990s. Beginning in February 1991 with a kiss on the American L.A. Law series' episode " He's a Crowd" between C.J. Lamb and Abby Perkins, [note 1] David E. Kelley, who wrote the episode in question, went on to use the trope in at least two of his other shows. Subsequent television series included an episode in which a seemingly heterosexual female character engages in a kiss with a possibly lesbian or bisexual character. In most instances, the potential of a relationship between the women does not survive past the episode and the lesbian or suspected lesbian never appears again.Conan, Neal (January 24, 2002).
