New Look
The comments boxes annoyed me, and so with my L33t ninja-wp editing skills, I, um … did something that made them sort of go away.
Let us have a vote. Is this better? Worse? Neither?
Is it more attractive or less attractive than Wonder Woman’s new uniform?
For those of you not familiar with the recent debate on this all important topic gripping the entire free world, I can sum up.
Here is a picture of Linda Carter, wearing the old Wonder Woman uniform. As we all know, it is patriotic to go out and fight crime in a bathing suit. Now some people objected to this uniform on two grounds.
Objection One: Wonder Woman is not an American and therefore should not have her beautiful yet strengthy Nazi-Ass-Kicking curves wrapped the American flag. She is, come to think of it, born and raised on Paradise Island, which is, after all…
A New Look for Wonder Woman!
… obviously an island off the coast of Japan.
Hmph. I had previously thought that Amazons look more, well, Mediterranean, but pictures don’t lie!
Objection Two: Portraying the Star-Spangled Feminine Avenger as a curvy yet Adriatic hottie in a Red, White and Blue bathing suit is not only impractical gear for a Nazi-Fighter storming Normandy Beach to kick some Heinrich Heiny, it plays into a lurid and undignified Fanboy fetish for flag-wrapped warbabes which is distinctly unhealthy.
Therefore a much more realistic costume should be chosen which does NOT play into any strange fetishes! After all, it is perfectly normal for fanboys to be allured as if by all-ravishing magnetism to the sultry yet exotic beauty of Meganekko girls with glasses, tightly wrapped in semi-disciplinarian-looking leather, with dewy yet pouty lips red as the blossoms of a cherry tree, toting high caliber weaponry capable of fully automatic fire.
Oh, yes, that is a MUCH more realistic image of womanhood!
I call the new Wonder Woman costume a triumph of good taste and sober realism.
