Give "Joker" a try.
Give "Joker" a try.
Still better than Frank Miller's Joker...
That's just something Grant Morrison has been saying. The original letterer has shot that rumor down entirely. Though it's fun to think about, it wasn't Alan Moore's original implication.
By comparison to what we got later? Yeah....
The main cause of "sexism" is, pure and simple, a lack of respect for the person in regards to that person being a woman. There's no respect for a stripper as a man ogles her as an erotic means to an end. There's no respect for a prostitute as a man pays to use her as nothing more than a sex object. That is,…
True, but I'll always bring up my favorite, character-driven Final Fantasy game, FF9, as a game where there's not much cosplay of these characters (largely because they're so bizarre), but the cast is absolutely stunning in terms of character development and utter charm. You won't see nearly as many people ever dress…
"Sexism" is merely a discrimination based upon gender. If something is discriminatory, even ignorantly so lacking malice or overt oppression, it is sexist. Just as someone can be ignorant and racist, someone can be sexist and not hold any personal animosity towards those of another gender.
I think Japanese developers these days aren't doing "cosplay" design right.
That's like saying prostitution and stripper dancing isn't sexist if they're willing to do it for money and attention.

Oh, I remember the complaints. Back then, people wouldn't shut up about naked cartwheels.
You know, at first I was thinking turning a strong female militant heroine into a mute sex object would be a very bad thing...
Well, the character is mute... so, yes, she'll shut up.
Apparently he wants to portray her without clothes too. *ba-zing!*
Eh. I still prefer Nightwing in blue.
*just finished playing Xenosaga Episode 3 on PS2... just needed a memory card* Ah, the good old days...
28 Days Later...
"Who have you killed?"
"I haven't... I..."
"You wouldn't be alive if you hadn't killed somebody. Who have you killed?"
"... I killed... a boy..."
"A child?... But you had no choice... It was him or you. You did what was necessary to survive."
Meanwhile, Xbox Games with Gold is giving out Keflings.... snicker Overdelivering value...
It was always a weird contrivance. I mean, her boyfriend Nightwing was best buddies with Cyborg, who had MOST of his body destroyed and yet was built back up and remains thoroughly active. Batman had access to the Lazarus Pits, which could have healed her. Superman had STAR Labs on speed dial. Her remaining crippled…
Sure is. Spam away!
