Hey View, did you know we were mysogynistic adolescent boys who only read comics to ogle the watermelon-boobied women and have masturbatory fantasies about lesbian cops?

See, damnit, I knew I'd missed my vocation somewhere...

I'd almost be offended if it weren't so damn silly... and poorly researched... and biased. And I'd write a counter-comment but... *eh* bollocks to it, the whole thing's stupid.

(Because for starters, they forgot the entirety of the Manga world, where not only are huge portions of it aimed at girls but there's plenty that features great, heaping spoonfulls of slashtastic pretty-boy action... It's not all watermelon-boobies and useless women in the world of comics, and nor is it all sweaty pubescent boys in the comic store. Having spent so long hanging around in Magic lab I can tell you that much for absolute certain.)


But then again, the mere fact that I hang out online so much according to some makes me a sweaty, overweight middle-aged man sitting around in a basement somewhere with one hand down the front of my stained white underpants... may as well add "mysogynistic comic nerd" to that as well.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have some big-breasted lesbian prostetutes in very little clothing to slap about a bit and then masturbate over.

Samn then why did I waste all that time on education, job, and all that stuff.

Actually I think he was talking about the former PR guy from the San Franciso 49er's front offic that had that "traing video" with the lesbian sex and showering with the topless women... that's what I think.

Dolts... jealous of Logan's fangirls... poor researchers don't have smutty fan fiction written about them...


I couldn't read the article their server was swamped.

*LOL*

Ah, it was a ramble about Sin City and how comics are obviously all seedy and disgusting and mysogynistic as a result. It was very silly and incredibly poorly argued.

Oh I've been in discussion like that in person where I go excuse me.. I'm an over fourty woman who runs her own successful business and possess post graduate degrees and various certifications. I have a family and am active in my community. Yet I am proud to say I a comic fan from way back and still subscribe to quite a few today. I am very much a fan of a fictional man and discuss him in depth with other fans that include all walks of life from teenage boys, to gay men, to lit teachers at Ivy League schools, to Admerals in the Navy, to professional musicians. I even write novel sized stories on the the characters for personal growth as a writer, entertainment, and to explore the character futher. Comic book fans are as diverse as the real life world beyond your world view blinders.

To which this person just stood there looking at me like I'd told them a dirty little secret. LOL but he stop espousing that comics were currupting our world.

Ohh now I can add I helped a Middle School Advanced English Literature teacher develop a teaching unit on the presentation and writing of a story in art frame format... even supplied the reference materials from my own collection. LOL

*heeee*

No, just come clean now and admit it... you're a spotty little oik with a penchant for big-boobied wimmins.

[viewoftheworld.livejournal.com]

LOL Yep... that's me.

No really I have bizzare thoughts of poping the big boobies with pins because they look so inflated like balloons.

Could the writer have stumbled into Liefield's office? LOL

[rune-heart.livejournal.com]

I also cannot read said article. Damnable internet newspaper thing.

*scratches head* So I'm a boy now? *looks down at self and is puzzled*
I am puzzled by the apparent lack of ... what the word? Oh yes, penis.

¬_¬

Oh well. Might as well revel in my claimed masculinity...

[lady-t-220.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I think the Times just went kersplut with all the cranky fangirls wanting to read about how their existance had been totally dismissed...

[rune-heart.livejournal.com]

Finally getting to read this, and OMG.

the next thing that hits her is the smell. It smells like unwashed teenage boys, and it has this real porn-store atmosphere.”

Where on earth is she going in to? Both the comic shops I go in to smell of... well, of shop. I also think my brain is about to up and find whoever wrote this, just because of the damned second page.

*murderous twitching*

Must.. kill...

[lady-t-220.livejournal.com]

In all fairness, if you've ever been into the Leicester branch of Another World in midsummer, it does admittedly smell of sweaty people in general... But that's because it has no air-con, and the heating upstairs won't turn off. But they'be been bought out by Forbidden Planet who already fixed the heating and bought fans! *shocked gasp*

Now if you want a porn-store atmosphere... try the porn store. There's one about 10 minutes walk away. You can't miss it, it's big and blue with blacked out windows and says PRIVATE SHOP in shiny gold letters over the door...

[rune-heart.livejournal.com]

ROFL. Maybe that woman got the wrong door?

Foolish lady.

[silverhallows.livejournal.com]

Don't you remember those old pre-CC conversations we used to have on the board.. you ARE a sweaty, middle-aged white man.

[lady-t-220.livejournal.com]

I know, that's what I was referring ot. XD

[silverhallows.livejournal.com]

*sniffs*

I missed the old days. Life was so much more interesting... and entertaining.

And, on an unrelated note, what the hell is up with the crap going around that "Hugh's people haven't seen a script, much less approved it".... WTF.... isn't he a producer on X3?

[lady-t-220.livejournal.com]

Uhm... he does have a degree of executive power-weilding frm what I remember. It was in his contract for this and the Wolvie-solo. Not a huge amount, but he had a degree of control over both the start date and a final nix on director. Wouldn't surprise me if he had a say on the script too, though i honetly don't know for sure.

[lady-t-220.livejournal.com]

*misread your comment*

*feel stoopid*

Yes, he has some producery-ness and No, I have no idea WTF is with that rumour...

[lady-t-220.livejournal.com]

Though now, given as we decided I was a fugly white man so long ago, I'm more than likely a fugly white man with an odour problem cause I've not moved off the PC since that day...

[silverhallows.livejournal.com]

That's okay, we'll just use a little extra powder on you...

[lady-t-220.livejournal.com]

*spritzes self with deodourant* It's like washing, but drier. *nods knowingly*

[katduza.livejournal.com]

EEK!
Ohh..havent seen you around in a while...
*hugs*
Hows it going?

No..wait a sec....
I dont want to hug you...smelly, evil, corrupting comic man...you, you....40 year old..nerd person..thing.
*shudders and backs off*

You know there is no by-line on the piece now that I can read it.

Hmmm me thinks she got dumped by a comic geek back in the day.

[lady-t-220.livejournal.com]

I present to you... Miss Trina Robbins (http://207.150.192.12/temp/trinarob/)! Feminist Pop Culture Historian... which probably explains her frosty reaction to comic stores. It usually helps if you have a sense of humour before you walk in the door.

[viewoftheworld.livejournal.com]

Oh my well you know the first rule I learned when doing research... CONSIDER THE SOURCE...

[lady-t-220.livejournal.com]

You should go check out her comics.

My first impression...?

LAME.

Drinking a G&T while reading this can be hazardous to one's health.

Good freaking lord. Talk about making wild, sweeping generalizations.

Go spank that prostitute, Herbert... ; )

I blame feminists... it always comes back to silly, silly feminists...
