For Freud, woman's issue has not been solved, and the feminine desire persisted until the end of his life as an enigma: What does a woman want? Lacan, in the article La signification du phallus, takes up Joan Rivière's concept of "masquerade," once again, to indicate an attempt at the working out of the feminine position through the construction of a phallic fiction, in the concealment of an unbearable emptiness. This text deals with analyzing the writing in a teenage diary as a version of the veil which situates the feminine aspect. In the diary writing there would be a demand for exhibition, while at the same time, a demand for camouflage, like a type of promise of possession of something precious, kept in secret, an issue itself of countenance, such as is dealt with by Lacan. A game witnesses the symbolic character of speech, since it supports itself, precisely on the artifice of the veil, which consists of hiding in order to make it exist. This paper questions the vocation of writing to serve as a setting for the intrigue of femininity, where the seductive invitation in the look comes from the insistence of the image, and the expression of heterogeneous elements (drawing, pasting, hand-writing) revealing the overflow of the feminine aspect, outside the shape of the text.
