if you ever feel bad about your body remember that Wonder Woman has cellulite too
Love this for so many reasons! There is so much body positive messaging. First Wonder Woman adopts a culturally appropriate variation of her costume for the people she works with. Then there is the whole aspect of her cellulite. Superheroes typically have idealized bodies and even in this specific comic Wonder Woman does have petite figure. But she accepts the imperfections in her body. In fact the issue with people taking pictures of her cellulite is not that cellulite is embarrassing but the sad fact that people want to talk about cellulite more than they want to talk about real issues. This is completely relatable to our own culture. How many world issues were ignored in order to talk about the “fappening” or any other time naked pictures have been stolen. While yes it is encouraging that Wonder Woman also has cellulite, but perhaps the more important lesson she has to teach here is that the importance of the presence or absence of cellulite pales in comparison to so many other issues. Perhaps we should devote our time and mental energies to fighting poverty, homelessness, or the continued objectification of the female form.
“Powerless is a workplace comedy about the worst insurance company in America… that exists in the DC Universe. What would it be like to be a normal person in a world with Superman and Darkseid. Though some of the DC characters may appear, the shows focus will be on the normal folks and you shouldn’t expect to see the likes of Superman, Batman or Wonder Woman.”
DC is being all gritty and “realistic” and Marvel just had a movie where the galaxy is saved by a dance-off and the power of friendship
And neither one of them can imagine a world either gritty and realistic enough or fun and fantastic enough in which a woman or a person of color is the hero.
Uuuhhh, DC’s already cast PoC actors for Cyborg, Black Adam, and Aquaman, and already have Gal Gadot planned to star in a Wonder Woman stand-alone film, meanwhile Marvel’s still making excuses for why they can’t give Black Widow her own movie, so it’s not exactly like DC and Marvel are on the same level in terms of representation.
