What are you talking about? The lasso isn't an actual weapon and just like in that clip of her fight with Superwoman, her using the lasso is an extension of her wrestling techniques. The technical term "unharmed fighting" doesn't matter since the lasso doesn't change the way she would wrestle, just enhance it. Unlike the sword and the shield, which force her to fight in an agressive manner.
Not at all because wrestling isn't inherently violent (as in, it doesn't inherently harm). Someone that enjoys the sport of it isn't bloodthirsty because wrestling doesn't cause harm. Your idea of Wonder Woman seems to be someone that hates her main job. Someone that doesn't like that she has to punch or kick or stab, and yet she does that every day. Which means that your version of Wonder Woman isn't a wish fulfillment at all since she is constantly relunctant and in anguish over what the world forces her to do. I'm proposing an archetypr and a fighting mindset that allow her to enjoy what she does without her using violence.
The amazons train all year long. They trained before the tournament and after it. The tournament isn't why they train
So my point stands that since they are treating combat as a test of skill and strength, wrestling makes much more sense than for them to throws arrows and swords at each other.
I'm not contradicting myself at all. The lasso stopped being used in the manner of bdsm ever since Marston left. I'm saying I want to bring back the idea of dominance that it represented, but without the sexual undertone, and instead as acessory in her grappling. How am I objectifying Diana since there's nothing sexual about what I'm proposing?
