Woah. I can’t believe I never realized this, but none of these are the “sexy female superhero pose” poster. Upper left-hand is the closest, but doesn’t show off her ass or boobs.
Most female superheroes get stuck in this pose where they show off their butt and cleavage instead of just looking badass. Wonder woman’s still forms to her body without being too sexy. And in her posters, she isn’t forced to pose sexy. She gets to pose like a male superhero.
I also read somewhere about how unusual (compared to most recent superhero movies) it is that in most of the posters for Wonder Woman, she is the only person in it
(this is actually the first time I’ve seen posters where she’s not solo)
Superhero movie posters are often very busy, with much of the supporting cast featured, especially if its the first film in that franchise (see: Iron Man, Spider Man Homecoming, Captain America the First Avenger, Thor)
But here, almost every poster is Diana, front and centre, carrying the entire image by herself
I’ll take it a step further… I find those wonder woman posters sexy, and i’ll bet a lot of people sexually interested in women do too…
But she isn’t sexualized… sometimes we forget that these two aren’t the same thing…
Not to mention they are some of the best movie posters we’ve seen in a long time
every single negative stereotype about women was dreamt up by men who were projecting. fight me about it.
“women can’t drive”
It is so well known that women are better and safer drivers than men that OUR CAR INSURANCE RATES ARE LOWER. Women get into fewer accidents, get fewer DUIs, and receive fewer speeding tickets than men.
“women never shut up”
Several scientific studies have shown that not only do men talk more than women, they also think that women have been talking for much longer than they actually have. Men interrupt and talk over women, dominate conversations, and still think women talk too much.
“women are shallow”
Lol next
“my wife is my ball and chain lmao”
Multiple studies have shown that marriage between men and women: Increases male lifespan, decreases female lifespan Decreases male depression rates, increases female depression rates Decreases male stress levels, increases female stress levels Increases male health and happiness, decreases female health and happiness Increases a man’s chance of getting a raise or promotion, decreases a woman’s chances of getting a raise or promotion
“women are too emotional”
Men love to say this about women after hurting them, in order to shift the blame and dismiss their feelings in one go. In reality, women are taught to hold our tongues and control ourselves quite literally from birth. We’re taught to put men’s needs and wants ahead of our own emotions regardless of the personal cost. Men are taught to do more or less whatever the fuck they want to women. Men take their emotions out on women while women are expected to shove theirs down.
I could go on and on but I don’t really think I need to.
“women are shallow” (just read the book, Dataclysm. by okcupid founder (?) that includes data about sex, gender, race, in finding online romantic partners)
