- I'm really just looking forward to the day when a woman's orgasm isn't scary.
- We are the fairer sex. We are pure. We are not earthly creatures... And I think to put us in the midst of all of it, to see that we are in fact just as sexually driven as men, is kind of confronting. Also the fact that we are largely, nowadays, not reliant on men to provide pleasure for us.
- [on the TV show Reign (2013)] I hope women that watch it can at least take with a grain of salt the level of importance that is placed on our virginities and on our male counterparts. I would hate for any young girl to watch and be like, 'This is the standard by which I will set my life'. I think they've done an incredible job of creating female characters who are really empowered by the times rather than restricted by them. Or, at least, empowered enough within the restrictions that they find themselves in.
- I've undoubtedly offended people, but in the end I've learned, the people that will understand are the people I want to connect to, anyway. And if I can change anyone's opinions, that'd be fantastic. But there are some people that are so set that it doesn't matter. And if my sexuality offends and repels or intimidates anybody, then we would never, ever connect, professionally or personally.
- I bore this great shame. And I would pray every time before I'd masturbate. I was like, 'Dear God, this is the last time, except maybe three more times on the way to Queensland.' I was so scared.
- Broad City (2014) is how I wish we could all be, whereas Girls (2012) is maybe a more accurate representation of how things are. There is still this expectation, there is still this reticence and fear, but I think that [Girls (2012) creator] Lena Dunham and [Broad City (2014) creators] Ilana Glazer and Abbi Jacobson are forging the way forward.
