Describing the process behind the intimate 'trans for trans' or 'T4T' scene, Mufti said it was "collaborative" between themselves, Lexa and the production team but noted it was a "learning process for everyone involved".
Mufti noted that many large-scale shows aren't created with trans folks in mind and whilst the teams behind them "want us and they want to do the right thing", they sometimes don't know how to go about authentically including trans experiences.
For example, whilst Sex Education had an intimacy coordinator, the pair asserted the need for a trans intimacy coordinator.
"We just thought, how can we have two trans characters and not have a T4T sex scene?" she said.
