Woahwoah.. I think you read something I didn't write. I wasn't pulling rank. I'm a nobody. I'm speaking from the perspective of a female artist who wants to make comics. Just like the one that drew that Batgirl. Not a famous one. An artist that has been accused of not being a woman because I drew something that men might enjoy. Oops. Well I like drawing it as well.

I like the aesthetics of comic books. That's what it is. It's a style like manga has a style. Like Disney has a style. It's not realism. Even then for every Jim Lee you have a Humberto Ramos. For every Rocaforte there's a Scotty Young, Takeshi Miyazawa or Michael Ryan, Rafael Albuquerque.

I'm just fucking tired of this circle jerking mentality of people picking one thing they know will cause shit and making a post. People take their word for it, agreeing like they know what they are talking about, and they pat each other on the back for being against Sexism. All comics are obviously sexist because of a few examples is a bullshit lie to spread. It's just as hurtful as saying all feminists want to kill men because some do or all Muslims are terrorists because some have done bad things.

If sexy women is an issue, it exists. It's not as big as people make it out to be. There are far more books with fully dressed fully realized women kicking ass they there are blatantly sexy ones. My personal solution would be more sexy men (Although to me comics are pretty hot already, but I know not everyone likes buff as much as I do.) Sexuality isn't bad. If I want hot men to look at guys can have their hot ladies(or whatever tickles their fancy.)

You are part of the problem. Thanks so much for doing your part to make sure that women aren't taken seriously in comics, whether on the page or behind the pen.
