Un-Horror Stories

So, I'm sure that we all have no shortage of horror stories about being a woman on set, but what have you found to be the benefits of being a production grrl*? As the only female crew member on a low-budget pilot shoot, for example, I was very popular among the teen girl cast -- because I was the only person they felt comfortable asking for feminine hygeine products. What other advantages have you found, by virtue of your gender?



*grrl, I know, is so 1997 Girl Power a term. But darn, it's fun to say!
