Kind of curious where the petition is, because I'd like to read it.
Both of the articles I've read on this matter don't seem to link to it. update: Is this it? http://www.thepetitionsite.com/741/2...men-and-girls/ Because...they're not exactly wrong. Pardon me, this is where I go and get a tub of popcorn to much on as every fanboy from coast to coast emerges from the basement to gnash teeth and rend garments...all the while claiming it's the other people who are triggered. |

Seems to be articles are running with the "big breasted white woman" thing and not the other parts of it, which actually do make a modicum of sense: "The message the United Nations is sending to the world with this appointment is extremely disappointing. The bottom line appears to be that the United Nations was unable to find a real life woman that would be able to champion the rights of ALL women on the issue of gender equality and the fight for their empowerment. The United Nations has decided that Wonder Woman is the role model that women and girls all round the world should look up to." But no. Still dumb. |

LOL, reading something like basically says, "Wonder Woman is attractive and has large breasts, therefore she is demeaning to women!" |
Quote:
So then... what real-life woman WOULD we appoint instead? |
Headcanon: Wondy was denied the position of UN Ambassador because she refused to sign the Sokovia Accords.

Hmmm....that's a good question. Oh hey, I bet until we find one a straight white dude will work. You know, just in the interim. |
Malala Yousafzai.
THAT'S who should be named. God bless that girl. |
She's already been shot once.
Do you really think it's fair to put her in the cross-hairs again? |
Quote:
I really shouldn't be surprised the UN couldn't do better. |
First woman to spring to my mind is Amal Alamuddin.
Though I have really enjoyed what Emma Watson has been doing. |
Quote:
I had no idea Amal had such a damned impressive list of credentials and accomplishments. Holy S. |
At one hand, reading the actual petition. Yeah it's kinda stupid not electing an actual real person.
But, it's also a honorary title, it's just for fun elevating a Comic character to a big campaign's mascot... but there's no actual named women behind said year-long campaign? Slap some Greg Land WW pin-up and call it a day? |

One of my favorite write-ups on her marriage came from here: http://www.thebusinesswomanmedia.com...marries-actor/ Quote:

We live in a world where a fictional character can get promoted and demoted from a real life position because of people getting offended. Let that sink in.
|
You sound triggered.
Do you need a hug? |
Quote:
The only thing that triggers me is your refusal to quote my posts under any circumstance. |
You've got a really low threshold for what defines "worked up."
People logged onto a website and added their name to a petition. It's way less investment than say, coming here to whine about it. |
Why is Wonder Woman's outfit considered provocative? If a woman walked around like her in real life it'd look totally normal to me, provided it was different colors and not the American flag.

I don't find it provocative, but come on...she's not wearing pants.
Or sleeves. She's essentially fighting crime in a strapless bathing suit. Quote:

Nope, ignorant as charged.

Though, man I wish I could get that kind of boob support from my underwire. |
Also why does the petition say Wonder Woman has "impossible proportions?" Most comic artists draw her looking realistic looking, with large C or D cup breasts. How is that impossible?
Do these people go outside? |
Find your own spankbait, Cubed.
|
How is Wonder Woman unrealistically portioned? I mean I know there's some artists who go overboard, but her standard design from most artists is not anything unusual.
|
Isn't Wondie an Amazon and thus intentionally "unrealistically proportioned"? I know some media makes her super tall, like head and shoulders taller than Bats and Supes.
|
Oops... image was yuuuge.
Spoiler:
|
That artist draws the best Wondy. The. Best.
|
Apparently some DC comic writers/artists are posting on their twitters how disappointed they are about this, and how the people protesting don't get what Wonder Woman stands for as a symbol.
If Superman can be a symbol and he has a "perfect body" I don't see the double standards for Wonder Woman. |
Damn
Can't believe these perverts are sexualizing wonder woman
|
Lol Wonder Woman banned from UN for having boobs.
Imagine men being banned for having balls. What dumbasses. |
"Wonder Woman!
All the world is waiting for you and the power you possess In your satin tights fighting for your rights And the old red white and blue" Now that was a bygone era... |
gonna be really awkward when UN is underattack and Wonder Woman is the only avalable hero to help.

This whole thing is clearly another nefarious plot from Dr. Psycho or the Cheetah. More seriously though, someone should send each of the protesters a copy of this graphic novel and then have them explain how WW is such an awful role model. |
