Now tagless for your comfort.

What part of "don't read the comments" don't I understand.

Head, meet desk.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Within the comic? Selina, Talia, etc? Or to the readers? Because (my demisexuality and Batman's fictionality notwithstanding), I don't find Batman sexually attractive.

It's not about the personality--they're not necessarily portraying the women as particularly sexual people, but they're drawn that way.

And I'm just saying that the way the men are drawn is also sexually attractive, even though it's secondary--it's a side effect of their power. What that woman drew is further away from the typical male physical ideal than how Batman looks now.

Hey, didn't Amber basically draw Nightwing?

But she didn't. There aren't any, as far as I know, major DC or Marvel male characters with that degree of facial feminisation.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I finally found a duvet cover I like - [link] Now to figure out if I can afford it (currently my white duvet is sandwiched between a cheapass green fleece blanket and a sheet, so I'd like to upgrade).

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Of course, a female character drew it, but it was still a man drawing the comic.

Oh, good god. I'm watching Dinner With Schmucks, and I hear Kieran's accent, and I think "Bingo! That's a NZ accent! That's the same one as in Flight of the Conchords!"

Well, yes it is. No coincidence, that. I'm very clever. Not. And why am I watching another movie about a really annoying guy the protagonist bumps into who has a complete lack of self-awareness?

I know. It's kind of my point--that's *not* who most women are thinking should come and whisk them away from peril and sex them into next week. Being drawn by a man could likely be the source of that disconnection.

Oh yeah, absolutely.

I like the Avengers poster I've seen where the artist turned the dudes ass-out like the one woman is in the real poster.

My brother turned 33 today. And had to kill excess mice due to regulations. Which he found depressing until I joshed (ahaahahaha) him out of it by pointing out, irreligiously, that this was his jesus year, so maybe they would resurrect.
