Isabelle Huppert & Sandrine Bonnaire in La cérémonie (Claude Chabrol, 1995)
— List of my favourite actresses [7/?]
ISABELLE HUPPERT (March 16, 1953)
“I like to take these unusual characters and then make them as normal as possible, because we all know that the tragedy and the abnormal always hides itself behind the normal.”
Claude Chabrol, {1995} La Cérémonie

"Yes, it's true: I was the type of young femme who managed the girls basketball team in high school, just to be able to take in the sight of all those butches parading their muscles up and down the court. I found Girl Scout camp to be femme heaven and reveled in being able to explore my athletic self and still maintain my femmeness. And, to my horror, I have to admit pushing Tina away from my breasts in the back seat of a Buick while attending Mount Saint Mary Seminary. And then there was feminism... Although I came out as a "gay" woman before reading The Feminine Mystique, the seventies brand of white feminism had me trimming my nails and cutting off my hair. Soon I was outfitted in farmer jeans and high tops. And still I was told by my "sisters" that I didn't "look like a dyke" (read: I didn't look butch). I began to lead two lives- one as an outrageous, skirted, lipsticked femme while I worked in and traveled with carnivals, and another as an imitation butch back home in the women's community. Eventually, I pulled the pieces of my being back together and proclaimed boldly, "I am a working-class lesbian femme." So I had maybe six years reveling in unleashing my seductive femme self when, as lives go, mine changed: slowly at first and then more dramatically. Recurring back pain and limited range of mobility were finally diagnosed. Soon after came decreased mobility. No more mountain climbing. No long mall walks in search of the perfect piece of sleaze. No more standing against kitchen walls being gloriously fucked by some handsome butch. I stopped using alcohol and drugs, became ill with what is now known as CFIDS (Chronic Fatigue Immune Dysfunction Syndrome), and began to use a three-wheeled power chair. The more disabled I became, the more I mourned the ways my sexual femme self had manifested through the nondisabled me: cruising at the local lezzie bar, picking up a dyke whose eyes refuse to stray from mine, dancing seductively, moving all of me for all of her. Cooking: love and suggestion neatly tucked into the folds of a broccoli quiche. Serving my date in varying, sleazy clothing, removing layers as the meal and our passion progressed. And making love... feeling only pleasure as my hips rose and fell under the weight of her. Accomplishment and pride smirked across my face as her wrists finally submitted to the pressure of strong persistent hands. There are the ways I knew to be femme, to be the essence of me.
It's been five years now since I began using my wheelchair. I am just awakening to a new reclamation of femme. Yes. I still grieve the way I was, am still often unsure how this femme with disabilities will act out her seduction scenes. I still marvel when women find passion amidst the chrome and rubber that is now a part of me.
There have been numerous dates, lovers, relationships, sexual partners, and fliterations along the way. Cindy, Jenny, Ellie, Emma, Diane, Dorothy, Gail, June, Clove, Lenny, Cherry, Diana, Sarah I, and Sarah II. You have all reminded me in your own subtle or overt, quit or wild ways that I am desirable, passionate, exciting, wanted.
Yes I am an incredibly sexual being. An outrageous, loud mouthed femme who's learning to dress, dance, cook, and seduce on wheels; finding new ways to be gloriously fucked by handsome butches and aggressive femmes. I hang out with more sexual outlaws now- you know, the motorcycle lesbians who see wheels and chrome between your legs as something exciting, the leather women whose vision of passion and sexuality doesn't exclude fat, disabled me.
Ableism tells us that lesbians with disability are asexual. (When was the last time you dated a dyke who uses a wheelchair?) Fat oppression insists that thin is in and round is repulsive. At times, these voices become very loud, and my femme, she hid quietly amidts the lists.
Now my femme is rising again. The time of doubt, fear, and retreat has passed. I have found my way out of the lies and oppression and have moved into a space of loving and honoring the new femme who has emerged. This lesbian femme with disabilities is wise, wild, wet, and wanting. Watch out.

The first bound volume of Sumiko Aria's popular Yuri web comic Ki ni Natteru Hito ga Otoko Janakatta (The Guy She Was Interested in Wasn't a Guy At All) will be released in Japan on April 19. The manga was initially released independently on the author's Twitter in April 2022, where it went viral.
The Guy She Was Interested in Wasn't a Guy At All follows Aya Oosawa, a popular high school gyaru who falls in love with the cool employee at her local records store, unaware that her crush is not a boy, but a girl in her class, Mitsuki Koga.
The doujin went viral on Twitter, with the first episode acquiring more than 400,000 likes. Viewers particularly praised the storytelling, art, and character designs, particularly Mitsuki, whose design incorporates androgynous alternative fashion.
The series went on hiatus in early March so that Arai could finalize the print releases, but will return the week of April 10, according to the author's Twitter.
The bound manga edition was announced by Arai on Twitter in February. It is published by Kadokawa and will be available in Japanese print and digital formats.
In their announcement, Arai thanked readers for their support in making the manga possible, writing on Twitter:
This book exists because of everyone's support for me over the past year. Thank you very much. I will do my best to continue drawing. Please watch over me. And to my dearest international readers — I cannot express how huge of a part you guys played in making my dreams come true. Thank you so much for being here and loving Mitsuki & Aya for a whole entire year, they’re going to be printed.
The Guy She Was Interested in Wasn't a Guy At All is not currently licensed in English, but you can let publishers know your interest on social media and through licensing surveys.
Sumiko Aria is a mangaka known for their distinctive art style and character designs. They are a relative newcomer, having previously released only one webcomic on Comico, Bokura wa Kanojo ni Isonshou, and Makoto no Momoka and contributing onshots to Enterbrains Terang anthology and the November 2021 issue of Comic Yuri Hime.
