## Resource

🎙️ But I’m a Lesbian Two lesbians. Two mics. Endless hot takes. This week we’re strutting into the glitter-drenched chaos of Showgirls. We’re talking the rise of Nomi Malone, the rhinestones, the drama, the NC-17 rating, and how this infamous flop became a queer cult classic. Is it bad? Is it good? Is it so bad that’s it’s good? We will unpack it all, and hone in on all the gayest parts. 📲 New episodes weekly. See you next Tuesday! Next week, we will discuss Addicted to Fresno, available on Tello! But I’m a Lesbian is hosted and produced by Katlynn Beatty and Angelina Herrera. Production and Mixing by Victoria Shifflett. Creative direction and video editing provided by Juanita Iriarte. Music by Stiletto Falsetto. Do you need some sapphic advice?
