DC Women
Harley Quinn and batgirl are the only ones I respect here because they aren’t just walking tits with no personality like 97% of DC women
Yeah, you obviously know what you’re talking about.
You know, I never did get what having “no personality” means. All of these women have well-thought out characterizations
(at least pre-DCnU)with likeable aspects of their personalities. Selina Kyle (Catwoman) and Karen Starr (Power Girl) are bold, ooze self-confidence and don’t apologize for being completely themselves. Dinah Lance (Black Canary) is tough-as-nails and yet she’s kind and nurturing as a mother figure to several other heroes. Pamela Isley (Poison Ivy), while typically cast as a cold “villain”, has a softer side; she is passionate about the earth and connects with it, and even took care of some of Gotham’s children once. Kimiyo Hoshi (Dr.Light) is a brilliant scientist to the point of arrogance at times, but she is selfless enough to use her acquired powers for good. Kara Zor-El started out like Superman himself, unsure of her place in the world, but she always kept on trying despite initial mistakes.Diana of Themyscira (Wonder Woman)…oh god, she has no personality at all, this one. It must be because she is one of the most loving, compassionate and empathetic characters ever. She’s not just a butt-kicking badass Amazon princess; one of her greatest weapons isn’t just her fists, but her skill with diplomacy. She has such zero personality that Batman, that’s right, BATMAN, once said that everyone loves her, because it’s what she inspires in others when they meet her.
Basically, I’m sorry that you can’t look past these ladies’ bodies and your objectification of them as “walking tits” to truly see how they work inside. Just because they’re not as covered up as Batgirl and Harley Quinn, it doesn’t devalue their worth.
Checked out facebook to see my Aunt having posted a picture of a motorcycle.. it’s the motorcycle my cousin Griffin was riding when he was ran over.. it just finished being put together, they’re just tweaking it a bit before it leaves the shop.
I’m not sure how to describe how I feel right now..
Just finished up DCC this past weekend. I wore Julie Newmar’s version of Catwoman, I absolutely love the costume, I need to do some touch ups on the accessories, but I’m proud of myself for not letting my concern of fucking it up.. well.. fuck it up. Killed my feet, but worth it.
I realized looking through many of these pictures.. I do need to lose some weight, or at the least gain some muscle, I cannot keep wearing these types of costumes at my current body shape. No, I do not think myself a hambeast, but I do not look up to my personal standards to be dressed as such characters. I also need someone near me at all times to help me with my terrible case of derpy face I get when I’m really excited.
I got to meet Desi’s boy, and… well fuck I guess I like him. But you can’t take her away just yet! …Please?
It was a blast.
Now on to setting stuff up for Akon.. since it snuck up on me like a damn ninja I’ll be sticking to premade costumes, Catwoman again and Fluttershy (GONNA HAVE THE BEST PINKIE EVER, possibly even two.. or an Angel Bunny). I may see about finishing up ABA, since i have quite a bit of her already, not a high priority though.
For SDCC, I WILL finish Lilith *ahem* start Lilith… that way I can frolic with the absolutely fabulous Moxxi. Fluttershy will go.. even if just as a backup. Most likely Julie Newmar Catwoman, considering trying to redo the cowl and boots for Purple Catwoman in time. And finally… I’m going to do the white version of Raven… I will.. not Desi (maybe advice and pinning help.. please?), but I will be using the pattern from my purple one, altered a little to better fit and do this as much myself as possible. I’m super nervous about it, but I think I can do it. These plans are all very subject to change.. aside from Lilith.. I gotta.. I’ve been meaning to for far to long.
*deep breath* Now to never sleep until after both cons are done.
