After two years of fighting a sexual harassment lawsuit based on her gender and sexual orientation, the case was ultimately tossed based on evidence being "hearsay" and a filing technicality. This court case forced her to analyze past and present experiences with sex and sexuality, both personally and on a larger societal scale. She worked to examine sexual abuse, trauma, harassment, as well as sexual power and desire from an individual woman's perspective and those placed upon her as it made sense to her to describe.
