“Everybody – and every body – deserves pleasure; many people are excluded and feel unseen when it comes to having pleasure, and this series was made for those of us who have historically been left out of these experiences,” said Lola. “We are not only talking about culturally diverse cis women, but trans women, gender-diverse, and non-binary folks too. Pleasure is for ALL of us.”
