We all remember Louise as being an incredibly sexually confident individual and I can vouch for that. At the height of Sleeper's fame a few years back we met her out in a club in Brighton. My brother spent an hour chatting her up and he really fancied his chances until she turned to one of his mates and said "do you want to come home with me tonight"? Needless to say he did and he's regaled us even since about the night he went at it "hammer and tongs all night" with Louise from Sleeper. His words not mine. He says she was a fantastic shag and "right goer".
Just some quotes from some interviews that I thought is related to the above post.

From Volume 11 (Aug 94)

"I do think that when the AIDS thing is sorted out, there'll be an incredible backlash, and there'll be a more liberated way of thinking. Everybody's been uplight for so long... we'll go out and shag ourselves stupid, and there'll be a resurgence of the whole idea of youth.

"And the whole female sexuality thing will take off a lot more. It started to, and then a downer was put on it. But I think women will eventually have as much right to self-expression as men."

For some reason, I am remembering another quote where Louise tells an interviewer that boys are generally afraid to approach her. This was in reference to that women in bands don't have many groupies (as opposed to men in rock bands). I think it may be from the first Select article on them. The second article which appeared in December 96 is only partly transcribed (Happy Families?).
