<P> But I...don't believe that gender is just binary, and I never have, so that's what pulls me to sometimes politically identify as a lesbian, because I'm a feminist, and I feel like women are still so suppressed . I don't feel like we've come that far . But I also feel like there are people all along the spectrum, so in that sense, I feel like I would be more bisexual or just, you know, open - ended . </P> <P> Sea is a longtime vegan and has made a PSA video for PETA . </P> <P> After Sea returned from Europe, she moved to New York City and decided to re-enter the acting world, giving an audition tape to a friend who worked on The L Word's writing staff . Sea then got a call at her restaurant job in New York and was asked to fly to Los Angeles for an audition . She was then offered to perform the role of Moira Sweeney, an androgynous computer technician who moves from the Midwest with Jenny (Mia Kirshner). Over the course of the season, Moira comes out as a trans man, adopting the name Max Sweeney . </P> <P> With her girlfriend of the time, Bitch, formerly of Bitch and Animal, she helped to form a band called Bitch and the Exciting Conclusion . She was part of the band The Thorns of Life with her longtime friends Blake Schwarzenbach (formerly of Jawbreaker and Jets to Brazil) and Aaron Cometbus (of Pinhead Gunpowder and formerly Crimpshrine). The band toured the West Coast and played in New York City and Philadelphia from fall 2008 through winter 2009 . Besides The L Word, Sea's filmography also includes the films Shortbus (2006) (with Bitch, both as themselves) and Itty Bitty Titty Committee, released in 2007 . She also appeared in the John Cameron Mitchell - directed music video for Bright Eyes' "First Day of My Life" with Bitch . On February 17, 2009, she guest starred on an episode of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit as a transgender man, playing a similar role to Max Sweeney . </P>
