We didn't know about her until PugJesus enlightened us. It's a picture, so unless someone has something interesting to say about her breastplate, sword, or hairstyle, we're gonna default to something we're all qualified to speak about: her effect on us.

Personally my first reaction (after the cartoon "awooga" noises died down and I was done sending the wiki page to my sister...) was to appreciate how she's not wearing %!#%$ boob-plate.

Also, turns out she used to fence her girlfriends topless. NSFW.

I ain't saying it's wrong to think she's hot, she was clearly hot, but it's a historical post for a pretty significant female entertainer and it's all just thirsting and moving on. Hell you can even be thirsty and say something notable, like how many of the the photo tableaux she did are not hard to find and are considered some of the earliest american true sapphic-oriented (produced by gay women for the consumption of other gay women) erotica that's still surviving.

There's a lot to say here, even just about how hot she was, it's just disappointing that nobody is saying it.

Really? I had no idea! That's super cool

I wouldn't fence anyone topless, especially not someone I liked... I can't tell that's awesome or idiotic, but I guess they didn't wear helmets at any time, so really how much worse could it get.
