Patty and Selma Bouvier

Patty and Selma Bouvier are recurring characters in The Simpsons. They are Marge Simpson's older sisters, Homer's sisters-in-law and Bart, Lisa and Maggie's maternal aunts. They have a particular dislike for Homer and have jobs at the DMV, where they usually take great pleasure in failing every driver.

They are both voiced by Julie Kavner.

Personality
The two share an interest in cigarettes, smoking, and episodes of "MacGuyver" to fan their obsession. Patty wears a pink dress, while Selma wears a sleeveless dress. The sisters are distinguished by their hairstyles and their dress color-Patty wearing a pink dress with an afro and Selma wearing a blue dress with a trapezoid-esque hairdo. Selma has adopted a Chinese baby named Ling, thus becoming far more sympathetic over time.

Both Patty and Selma have an bad relationship with their brother-in-law and openly treat him with hostility. Likewise Homer holds nothing but hatred for the two, though unlike the twins he does try to be polite to them during family gatherings for Marge's sake. However, there have been times where Selma has shown sympathy towards Homer, including revealing Homer's whereabouts to Marge that the two had kept hidden, when she saw her sister was unhappy. Patty, on the other hand, rarely had such moments as she briefly teamed up with Homer to ruin the relationship between Selma and Homer's father Abe; she even supported Homer's idea of group-writing up a new successful teen fantasy novel for profit. They have a good relationship for their nephew and nieces.

Appearance
When at the beach or by the pool, the two wear either a swimsuit or a bikini. Out of the two, Selma has worn more swimsuits then her sister Patty.
