Maybe it'll help, maybe not. Somewhat topical, as it addresses Bride's Story (and shines light on something I'd noticed as well going through her whole catalogue: Shirin x Anis is the most sexual relationship she'd ever written, and "Everything and Something" is the most erotic stuff she'd ever drawn ; but I'm also one of those people who'd always thought that the way she writes het rings more than a little "phony" and comes off mostly as "paternal" in nature - even given the historical context of her works - so you can take the idea spelled below with grain of salt).
"One of the greatest lesbian mangakas who doesn't write yuri"? Wouldn't be surprised. She may be a "2", "3" or "4" in Diamond's female sexuality model, but she sure as heck ain't "1".
