Anne Billson makes a similar point about these action heroines ;
- Quote :
- I often fantasise about kicking ass, but only now, with Sucker Punch, do I see I've been getting it wrong. For a genuine sense of empowerment, I should have been daydreaming about dancing in a brothel dressed in bustier and stay-up stockings. Or maybe imagining myself in a customised Japanese schoolgirl outfit with my navel showing.

- Should I go see SUCKER PUNCH or jerk off to Sailor Moon while reading Mein Kampf and save $15?

For once I agree. Then why do only female superheroines tend to show a lot of flesh? Are male superheroes not interested in empowerment? Probably not since the 80s: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kxYmEYBLgBE#t=17s |

It's all very well criticising others, Oppers, but when are we going to see your dance of the seven veils? |

I've retired, it was all getting far too saggy and I was fed up with having to shave my chest. |

I'd be happy to do that for you, Oppers. Nothing below the waist, mind. |

| The pilot didn't get picked up.
