Oh it gets worse than that, the whole film is basically (no pun intended) “bisexual/lesbian women want to go on killing sprees against straight men.”

God damn it Verhoeven, this sounds awful.

Yeah the production notes do not cast Verhoeven in a good light. Per Wikipedia:

Activists claimed that the film followed a pattern of negative depictions and stereotypes of homosexuals in film. While Eszterhas was open to addressing these concerns, Verhoeven, Douglas, and producer Alan Marshall rejected the changes, claiming that they "undermined" Eszterhas' script and "lessen the integrity of the picture."…

Stone has alleged multiple times that a scene in which her vulva was exposed as she crossed her legs was filmed without her knowledge. She said she was told that her lack of underwear would only be alluded to and not shown. She had been wearing white underwear until Verhoeven said it reflected light on the camera lens and asked her to remove it, assuring her that only a shadow would be visible. She said it was not until she saw the film in a screening room with a test audience that she became aware of the visible nudity, leading her to slap Verhoeven in the face and leave the screening.
