is it time for frank cho and milo manara to die or what
That’s basically a naked woman I’m YELLING
What a pervert. What the FUCK does he not know how clothes work? What the hypothetical fuck is she wearing then if we can see all that?
It’s like how bath towels in comics miraculously wrap completely around breasts. Or how even when injured and dead on the ground women in comics have to be twisted into “sexy” poses. Or how women in comics walk like they’re in high heels even barefoot.
It’s the only way men know how to draw women, because to them female characters are only there to be sexy. They only think of “women” as exploitative costumes and camera angles, high heels and titillation. Sex objects to ogle, plot objects to further male heroes’ narratives and drama, not heroes to cheer for.
I’m sorry, I was labouring under the impression that this was the crowd that thought women should wear what they want..?
And that applies to fictional women who are depicted by men how? You can’t apply agency in the plot to something metatextual when it comes to fictional characters.
Come on, let’s not pretend this is a male exclusive thing.
We’re going to have this argument are we? Not to mention you’re deviating from the original point that attributing agency to fictional characters’ clothing is asinine.
What you have here are images of power, and do you really believe these characters are designed with titillating heterosexual women and bisexual and homosexual men in mind? Because I don’t think you do.
This is why the Hawkeye Initiative exists. Take common female poses in comics, put a man in the role, and see how “empowering” and “strong” it actually looks:
Also:
He got the painting for fighting against ‘censorship.’ Note that they handed him a gross design of a female being objectified, because at the end of the day, that is all they really want, to be allowed to objectify women. They don’t care about censorship in general it is about their ability to sexualise and degrade women without consequence.
You can see her butthole for chrissakes
I think the best imagery I’ve seen to explain the difference between what men think male objectification is vs what women actually want to see is the Hugh Jackman magazine covers.
Hugh Jackman on a men’s magazine. He’s shirtless and buff and angry. He’s imposing and aggressive. This is a male power fantasy, it’s what men want to be and aspire to - intense masculinity.
Hugh Jackman on a women’s magazine. He looks like a dad. He looks like he’s going to bake me a quiche and sit and watch Game of Thrones with me. He looks like he gives really good hugs.
Men think women want big hulking naked men in loin cloths which is why they always quote He-Man as male objectification - without realizing that He Man is naked and buff in a loin cloth because MEN WANT HIM TO BE. More women would be happy to see him in a pink apron cutting vegetables and singing off-key to 70s rock.
Men want objects. Women want PEOPLE.
This is the first time I have EVER seen this false equivalence articulated so well. Thank you.

this thread is the absolute holy grail of repeated self owns
I’ve told the people I’ve cut off that I’ll speak to them again when they apologize to me directly and admit they were wrong. I don’t think that’s a high bar to pass. If they feel differently, that’s not my responsibility.
How are you going to see close friends and family literally cut ties with you and still think you’re in the right
It ain’t about voting Republican. It’s voting for someone who ran a platform of most groups being shit and deserving of shit treatment. Once y’all can understand and acknowledge that, maybe you’ll get your friends and family back.
Absolutely no sympathy
It’s almost like demonstrating through your actions that you don’t care about people who are being murdered and terrorized on a daily basis will cause you to lose some friends.
The thing is, you know their friends and family had been putting up with their shit and making excuses for them for years before it got to this point. “My gay son cut me off over this :(” nah, you’d been hurting him all his life and this was the final straw.

Would anyone who lives in Gainesville, FL or knows someone who lives in Gainesville, FL who would be willing to put me up for the period of October 27th through the 30th?

Southern California which is where my mom grew up and where I was born. It’s interesting I didn’t pick anything up from growing up in Arizona or living in Ohio for 9 years.

Here it is, the cherry on the sundae, the incontrovertible proof that Joss Whedon does not understand Wonder Woman and never will and should not be allowed to touch anything that involves her and also this screenplay should have been burned and all digital copies placed on a single hard drive that was then passed repeatedly in front of a massive electromagnet:
“Strong women are always mean because any woman who had some trace of a backbone has dumped me”
