Description Female (35-45), latina, is a stay-at-home mom who lives and breathes for her family. In her mind, her value is a reflection of her family’s success. If they are happy, fed, and thriving, she feels complete. Because of this, she negates herself from having personal desires, as it makes her feel like she is betraying her role. She got married at 18, never dated anyone besides her husband (living a pretty bland, vanilla sex life), and spent her whole life taking care of her family. She has 2 kids, Charlie (14) and Luna (9). In the series, she will find herself working at a sex shop after her husband leaves her and doesn’t provide any support. She will eventually rent her basement to Sage.

Every time she steps out of her comfort zone, she policies herself back in for fear of disrupting her family life. Performer must be comfortable with an intimate scene. Intimacy Coordinator will be engaged. | ||

| Principal | SAGE | Female 25 - 35 Years old |
Description Female (25-35), any ethnicity, is a sex shop clerk who treats intimacy like something transactional. She believes that detachment equals safety and if she’s clinical and “over it” she can’t be hurt or rejected. Because of this she has a pretty open and free way to see desire and sexuality, without the pain that intimacy can bring. Sex is a means of pleasure more than connection. She’s always open to new experiences and is not afraid to ask for what she wants, or say what she thinks. | ||
