Welcome to: If Male Superhero Costumes were Designed Like Female Superhero Costumes!
Aaaaa I dunno. I got tired of guys having no idea why girls find female superhero’s costumes kinda sexist, so I, um, made this?
My main goals were: 1) Make it so the first thing you think of when you look at them is sex, whether you want to or not. 2) make it so that any male human who looks at this feels really uncomfortable. 3) make it funny, because, well, it’s kinda hilarious really.
Not trying to start a war here, just wanted to poke a bit of fun.
So, here you go menfolk, welcome to being a girl who likes comics.
Many many many people have messaged me about this post, so I better say something about it! This is absolutely amazing and completely true. I especially love the attention to detail, like how Captain America’s foot is up his butt. I can think of at least a few covers on Escher Girls that has that issue, and it’s usually not one people immediately notice, so, nice job! :D And the whole thing is totally amazing and really highlights the double standard. As I keep saying to “but men are objectified too!”, yes, as power fantasies, not as sexual fantasies.
This is beautiful. I keep trying to explain that to people too, men ARE objectified as power fantasies, not as sexual fantasies. One is what you wish you could be, one is what you wish you could bone. Heterosexual male gaze, and all that. Very different.
