    My dear friends, I was enjoying the posts and I ended up wondering what the "purim" holiday means and why do we see posts of people dressed as SMWW? Yes, I confess my ignorance about the Jewish religious calendar, mea culpa, but I thank SMWW for making me research this particular holiday... once again SMWW had social and global relevance for me as it expanded my range of knowledge. Well, by wikipedia (again mea culpa for doing a shallow search, I promise to delve into the future), this holiday has to be with salvation (see text below)... I am very happy to see SMWW associated with salvation, security and heroism.

    "Purim (/ˈpʊərɪm/; Hebrew: About this soundפּוּרִים (help·info) Pűrîm "lots", from the word פור pur (גורל / fate),[2] related to Akkadian: pūru) is a Jewish holiday that commemorates the saving of the Jewish people from Haman, who was planning to kill all the Jews. This took place in the ancient Achaemenid Persian Empire. The story is recorded in the Biblical Book of Esther (מגילת אסתר Megillat Ester in Hebrew). It is also known as the Festival of Lots.

    According to the Book of Esther, Haman was the royal vizier to King Ahasuerus (presumed to be Xerxes I or Artaxerxes I of Persia, "Khshayarsha" and "Artakhsher" in Old Persian respectively) and he planned to kill all the Jews in the empire. His plans were foiled by Mordecai and Esther his cousin and adopted daughter, who had risen to become Queen of Persia. The day of deliverance became a day of feasting and rejoicing."

    It's tradition dressing up for Purim, that's why you see people with superhero costumes (SM/WW):

    Yes it is! Superman and Wonder Woman should be confind to this outdated backwards one view of one society/culture. They don’t just represent the “American Way”. They represent and inspire all cultures. We need to see more of that instead of shying away and acting like exploring that otherness is too hard. No matter how much forced telling of being not only “human”, what they think human should be, but be accepted within this one society view, makes them relatable, obviously it doesn’t. What makes Superman and Wonder Woman relatable is them living their actual truth. Whole truth. Not this twisted contradicting truth they’ve been pushing. And embrace all cultures, show Superman and Wonder Woman global interactions

    SMWW must break down barriers and not build walls around them ... WW must be an "ambassador" who takes her culture to the world and when she comes home takes the world culture to there.

    Exactly! Not sure what Wonder Woman stands for now. She doesn’t even know who she is nor her own purpose. Superman is limiting to old outdated views/troupes. None of this makes any sense to their characters. It would truly ground breaking for SM and WW to finally get to where they should’ve been already.

    It would probably be used as an excuse for more domestic abuses of the poor Superman cosplayers. 😅

    I assume Superman has a WW tattoo... somewhere. 🤔
