Elaina has never told a lie in her life~

Frenchbian

Two characters who represent two facets of me irl

I wanna be married

Yes

I'm so OBSESSED with this artwork lately, my two best girls from GBC and Bocchi the Rock they would tots be friends omg omg

Confident Girlboss South Korean Women

hey folks this is a cute yuri that will get adapted no psychological drama, no heavy theme like war, death, absurdism, life meaningfulness or such

she is BEAUTIFUL i LOVE her so much she should be in a better anime

This is a Filipino lesbian movie between a siren and a chef And it is announced for this summer (premiered on YT)

I want this to happen

This is very much worth the read (and it doesn’t take 45 minutes). It’s a really useful overview and helped me better articulate some aspects of my own experience.

What is being transgender? That's the topic of my new article. I will be discussing mostly gender, while providing insight from (trans)gender studies and broader humanities I've tried to make it accessible but the material can be dense. Feel free to give me any feedback~ medium.com/@yuriina/wha...

Another anime where they introduce a "cool and badass" type of female chara, but at the end the MALE HERO is coming to save the day I fkin hate this

4- THE GREATEST WITCH OF EM ALL, a wandering witch you could say, Elaina! for 2 years now Elaina has been a constant presence in my readings, or even through conversations with goofy discord stickers. She is also genuinely an amazing grey character who is funny yet fascinating in her decision making

4min an episode for this is a crime

I think trans women can reinvent femininity and this kind of tweet reinforce toxic compulsory performativity it's transphobia because you'd never say this for cis women who have consistently reshaped feminine norms

Remember that a trans black woman is 7 times more likely to get killed by gun than a cis black woman (in the US), and 21 times more likely than a white cis woman.

3-Suou Shirahane from Flowers VN. One of the greatest protagonists and characters ever, her development is incredibly multi-faceted and complex while remaining an enjoyable character to follow her story with. I first read flowers as a teenager and since then suoh has been a massive role model for me

The ONLY reason i'm still checking X is for ARTISTS i wish they were on bluesky it's so infuriating

To my yuri followers, please don't be surprised if in one year this account will tweet in French and has "parliament representative" in bio

If gender studies were taught in high school humanities like a real academic field, it'd make a real difference in fighting transphobia and misogyny The fuel of those is ignorance of gender and the belief in "biological sex" as a concept

i don't understand how MEN can like their TRASH SLOPY hero/isekai anime when every male MC looks the same

Snow and train station

I feel really sad about war, how the lives of many are decided by a few.

Happy new year everyone ✨💜 in 2025: - i celebrated my 1 year engagement 💍 - i met irl the best left-wing leader of my country 🚩 - i went to strike protests and smoke gas - i've made progress in writing a (yuri) novel 🌸 - i've TL many yuri chapters Hope to see y'all around in 2026 ❤️

This is the yuri I wish it happened for MyGo

Normalise this

I'm tired of debate "identity vs medicalism" on X around trans experience I have decided to write a (comprehensive) article to ground transgender reality in materiality, to do what Butlerian tradition failed and to end once for all medicalism and all essentialising attempt of transgender condition

Don't forget to follow and like the new artists on bluesky so that they don't have to go back to X

I pushed my girlfriend into reading Wandering Witch and now she caught up to where I was at The series is awesome you should try it if you love traveling novels with wholesome and gruesome stories

Most history you've learnt at school should be called "history of men" Women history needs to be a whole subject taught at school. (I've picked my two favourites if you are interested in the topic!)

In three pages, Kimi Shiranai Natsu Naru successfully manages to depict loneliness facing capitalism from a woman's perspective.

I have published an article on Medium about a strand of feminism, discussing about exploitation, racism and trans-inclusivity with material perspectives originated from French feminism Feel free to give me feedback or any piece of your mind ✨ medium.com/@flandrescar...

2025 has been the best year ever for my media experiences, and as we approach the end of the year it is time to show my top 10 media for this year and why I love them so much. All of these are super special to me so I hope you take the time to read this thread, maybe something will interest you!~

You love villainess because she's framed as such, I love villainess because she's actually a villainess. We are not the same.

When men authors create animanga in which gender power dynamics is reversed, women chara's agency still has to be exploited somehow, profiting to the male character who's supposed to be oppressed Weirdly enough they always manage to write oppressive world for women but never for men

Sometimes I want to check on some moots who are still on Twitter. But then I saw a trans woman get job termination because transphobic bigots reported to her company over nothing. And a transphobic QRT somehow landed into my TL with using Grok going all essentialist.

i think animanga can be quite sexist and stereotyped when it comes to gyaru, i'm happy this yuri portrays gyaru in a positive and genuine way

been fed up with dramas lately. I just want to read happy yuri they hold hands they kiss all good and happy

Yuri is about identity & feelings. Yet Throw Away the Suit Together managed to tackle socioecon conditions to being a lesbian: job & wage discrimination, unhealthy housing... Some feminist authors analysed hetero-patriarchy as an organised political regime: you "need a man" for a comfortable life

I enjoy many anime & manga, but I will never understand why some people become obsessed with Japan. I only have contempt for the unquestioned, deep-rooted racism and patriarchy within Japanese society, with harsh work & sex exploitation + modern slavery.

I've read a feminist critics (of GoT) on Quora that has changed my view on fiction FOREVER. Many authors just lack sociological imagination. Furthermore the Japanese mangaka & novelists when they can't even imagine a magic system that is not "video game" mechanics.

Vertin is imho one of the greatest protagonist in video games Not only she's elegant, but she's a leader with profound vision of history and humanity She transforms the universe she's in despite the odds, and evolves through complex characterisation I recommend R1999 just for its story-writing

I've tried to write yuri stories but I've never liked it. I really prefer to write a story not focused on yuri (or any romance) then introduce some lesbian subtext after like 80k words. I can't really explain it. At least it impacts me much more i guess.

Anime do introduce "strong female characters" with somewhat agency... Emilia/Rem, Mikasa, Asuna etc. Despite making them "OP", very often their agency'd be exploited to support a male character. Real agency is accumulating resources, build up pathways towards goals that you've set for yourself.

"the twist": a STEREOTYPED MALE character died so that the yuri can take place. It's crazy how the average anime normies can be so despicable. Low rate bombing the show that has a female character with high agency and leadership.

I feel like recent anime chara lack imagination, creativity and boldness, or the anime fail to develop upon them I miss chara such as The Major, Ginko, Lain, Johann, or Mamimi from FLCL Recent chara i'll remember for decades are prolly Frieren or... SUBARUUUU (just cuz i love her)

Which yuri media do you think are the most ambitious and take the most risks in your opinion? (I'm staying vague on purpose) It doesn't have to be Japanese media

EARLY HAPPY BIRTHDAY NINA (24/10🎉)
