Mentality “Girls Like Us”
I pressed play not knowing what to expect. The stories that unfolded before my eyes are the stories that I relate to the most. Not just another fluffed up story. Mentality “Girls Like Us” shows you the real life of the individuals. Press play and get into this trailer. One thing to remember, brace yourself for the REAL in Reality.
Mentality “Girls Like Us” A Memphis based documentary that gives a raw and candid look at the lives of lesbian studs. Mentality “Girls Like Us” shares the stories of three lesbian studs and one “FTM” who is going through gender transition. They are each coming to terms with sexual orientation and gender identity in a world where discrimination is prevalent against women who don’t fit into a mold of femininity.
The participants in this documentary live a life that is subjected to judgment, bias and an abundance of scrutiny for being who they are. Although there have been many changes in laws for the LGBTQ community, they are still met with partiality.
Ashton, “The Transman” allows the viewers to share in the sacrifices that he is making to become comfortable with his identity-from wearing a chest compressor to injecting “T” (testosterone).
- Lizzy G, “The Survivor” shows us how the unconditional love she receives from her daughter helps her to cope with her abusive past.
- Kyta, “The Asian Persuasion” is learning to live her life freely as she lets go of the expectations of her strict family upbringing.
- Yella Man, “The Entertainer” takes us on a journey of fun and good times and shows us what it is like to be happy with who you are—“The mentality of me being a stud…I’m wild, I’m down, I’m cool… love kicking it.”
The documentary is created, directed and produced by Flo Gibbs. Gibbs is the founder of Loco Music & Media Group. She is also known as the hip-hop artist LUNATIC-FLO (MY PEOPLE’S CHOICE).
