I personally think that's overemphasized in discussions sometimes and would appreciate the opportunity to talk about specific examples of Batman being misogynistic. I know he is written that way, but I don't like it.
The two are not mutually exclusive. In fact they rather tend to support one another. There's a reason "Sound of Silence" is a better song than "Toxic."
Heh. Okay. Also, not mutually exclusive, agreed. But depth is enjoyed, in my opinion, delving into different concerns and issues, requiring different emotional reactions, actions and skillsets from a character. And they don't--Batman does not--ever have to deal with gender issues. Is it better for WW that she does? When her character is mostly written by men anyway?
I would so appreciate it if she could just take care of business more often without her gender being part of the plot.
So I don't know? And for some reason, which I'm trying to figure out, I have not yet been drawn in by her mystique enough to know for sure. Personally, I prefer less gender issues in stories, maybe. Or, more subtly done.
