“Not in front of my sister, Crystal!” Actually, the real gem is “Every girl can be domestic, Johnny… when it matters.” Gag. Also, what are the odds that an Inhuman girl who’s never been part of mainstream society is going to know how to make buns?

Reed likes ’em butch, I guess. <i>Edit: Counting this one for the “female” drinking game</i>

Not to you, dear readers, but to Roy Thomas. Yes, Roy Thomas, whose Avengers run I have repeatedly slammed as being one of the most sexist things Ive ever read. In his FF run, it is Roy Thomas who developed Sue Richards into more than just the woman Reed Richards yells at. He turned her […]

I know Reed is mister super-genius and all, but the below panel kind of defies all logic. She’s too dumb to think of a name for her own kid? Even though she has a recently dead father? Can she at least tie her own shoes?

From FF 45: From FF 47 From FF 107 So seriously, why’d he even marry her? Just to shut her up? He talks nicer to Doom!

The Cosmic Rays did more than just give Sue the power of invisibility. They also made her an invertebrate. That said, how can you not love “Go polish a test tube”? We all know what she meant.

Once Reed puts her in it, of course. I guess Reed believes in a variation of “women should be seen and not heard”, eh?

Just ask Reed! I find it cute that he calls it his morale.

Superman #45: Lois “gets superpowers” via hypnotism (meaning Superman followers her around doing super-feats) – and then men no longer find her attractive. Of course, Lois can’t be having with that, so she begs the person who hypnotizes her to undo it: Lois slapping the stuffing out of Clark almost makes it worth the message […]

Check the guy on the far left: Even facing certain death, he can’t resist scoping out his killer’s chest. Now that’s a real man.

1) More About Those Darn Girls. Dames sure are flighty, ain’t they? All they think about are clothes. 2) Superman, Lover of Animals. “Don’t judge me with your puny human morals!”

Finally, we find out how Kal-El really feels. So she disproves him and ends up locking three guys in jail. Clark’s reaction?
253Mar 15, 2006
Gosh, girls sure are useless, aren’t they?

Bear with me gang, this one’s long. In Superman #61, Lois has an epiphany. You see, the reason Superman won’t date her must not be anything substantial like say, her shrewish personality, but something else. Something vastly more important… …like her haircolor. It doesn’t exactly go over well. I love Superman’s reaction, “I do not […]

I bet the folks at ERA loved Supergirl comics.

Yes, that’s right Kara, don’t want to show any kind of spine. That’d be unladylike.

Why? Because it’s set in Gay City. What do we know about Gay City? Well, we know that there’s a strange malady that seems incurable. We also know that it’s no place for a woman. Superman’s excited. Wonder why? Ah. Up for a wee bit of R&R I suppose. I wonder if he’s a top […]

“Oh Dear G-d! I’m a horrible caricature of a woman! A nosy shrew who spends all her time scheming to entrap the world’s greatest hero into marrying me by exposing his secret identity and blackmailing him! I’m a creepy stalker! Noooooo!!!!”

Wait, so the guy won’t admit an underage, nubile girl traveling alone, but had she been with a “proper†escort it’s okay? Do they also charge by the hour?

Let’s wrap up our fashion show with a look at what the well-dressed 30th Century teenages is wearing. Our first contestant is Tasmia “Shadow Lass” Mallor. This Talokian Tease was the first Legionnaire to wear beachwear into combat. let’s have a looksee, shall we? Next up is that regal lady, Princess Projectra. I actually do […]

Imagine if David Duke came out with a children’s book featuring an African-American protagonist…. Roy “Girls are Stooopid†Thomas presents a book where the female Avengers are manipulated by a militant feminist, in one of the most painful to read stories ever (I’m not saying Roy Thomas is quite on that level, but this book […]

Ah, Adventure Comics # 368. Great, great story. Evil leader of a Matriarchal society uses some odd device to both supercharge the powers of the girl Legionnarires and also control their minds. What I really like about this story is that at no point do they do the heavy-handed “Matriarchies are WRONG” thing, instead saying […]

Sorry, left my Treo at home Friday. Happy Hogan, ladies and gentleman – yet another in a long line of Marvel smooth talkers! “I ain’t so sure I like you using all dem big words, lady. Now go bake me a pie.â€

That’s right Wanda. Now go bake me a pie, woman! And people wonder why she singled out Clint Barton.
