and now...

...for something that's just plain fun: Ask Golden Age Wonder Woman!

If anyone cares to do some serious feminist exegesis of those panels or of Wonder Woman comics, please go ahead in the comments. For now poor T's mind is too busy coming up with Kant lectures.

William Moulton Marston, who created Wonder Woman, was freaking awesome.

1) He invented the polygraph machine (more or less) which you can see in the Wonder Woman comics as The Lasso of Truth.

2) He was polyamorous and lived with his wife and their girlfreiend until his death, and after his death the two of them lived together for the rest of their lives.

3) He was sexually submissive, saying of male Wonder Woman readers, "Give them an alluring woman stronger than themselves to submit to, and they'll be proud to become her willing slaves!"
