Jay, a queer transman, navigates the shark-infested waters of LA’s gay dating scene. He’s young, he’s single, and he’s really just looking for fun and sex, meeting guys mostly on hookup apps, but when the bedroom door closes, he is subjected to the type of questions cis men only feel safe to ask in private.
