Nine to Five (1980) dir. Colin Higgins

what I love about this invitation is that it’s left open to interpretation by the viewer. this fem might be offering herself to be restrained - or she might be suggesting her lover submit themselves to her. either way, she is taking control of her erotic desires, the ultimate sexual intent of her invitation not ambiguous in the least

images like this make me ache for access to archives of On Our Backs and the similar lesbian sex publications that flourished at the time. this is what resonates so deeply in my soul it seems elemental - a desire felt innately, a shock of recognition, a reflection finally for what I had no name, no language for; only a dormant ache that trembled, voiceless, in my marrow. the tender supplication in being on my knees at a butch’s feet; imploring her at once to let me adore her, and that she adore me in return. asking at once for her strength and protection whilst offering my care and devotion. the passivity of this posture is illusory; it is an active declaration of profound emotion that insists upon acknowledgment. it eloquently expresses an element intrinsic to my femness: my absolute love and desire for the butch lesbian.

Between us I by Julia Peirone 2000 Dvd 9 min.

A man and a woman are having a conversation. We can only see the woman’s body language and hear the man’s voice. It is a situation in where both parts are amputated in their communication and their struggle between words and body turns into an expression of power and a secret bonds.

Julia Peirone, Lovisa, 2010
