Erika Linder: The Androgynous Icon Behind "Below Her Mouth"

 

While her name might not ring a bell for all, her role in the 2016 film Below Her Mouth has made her a legend in LGBTQ+ circles. The movie spawned a viral line: "Why do women love roofers?"—a phrase still referenced by fans. Linder’s performance, raw and magnetic, showcased her ability to embody complex, authentic queer characters. Off-screen, her career as a model is equally groundbreaking: she’s known for "seamlessly switching between male and female modeling," defying traditional gender norms with every campaign.

Open about her sexuality, Linder uses her platform to support the LGBTQ+ community, becoming a beloved icon. Whether gracing runways or lighting up screens, she proves that style and identity exist beyond binaries—making her not just a talent, but a symbol of self-expression.
