Ethically what is the absolute latest Clark can wait to tell Lois the truth?

[manwhohaseverything]

Zorro is set in a particular period, unless you do the same with Superman, that won't work for a modern Superman. You cannot play up the disguise as a joke because it makes Clark a dick, especially if he goes through questionable lengths to hide his identity by tricking those around him, especially Lois.

I don't particularly have a problem if triangle exists or not. This is about really understanding what it was about when it existed. Parody means making a joke out of something that was serious by exaggerating it's features. You know, poking fun of it. Sometimes in a good way like this instance and one punch man. Sometimes it's just making fun and mockery like boys.

Moreover, Clark persona is a dick, wimp... Etc.The actual clark would need to evaluate whether a person is trustworthy. Especially, in a world of xenophobia. He is vigilante, an outlaw... Etc.So, fairly sure that implies he isn't exactly nicest guy around in the first place. Moreover, these comics had barely anything to do with 70s Superdickery in which lois was treated as the bad one for rejecting clark, an idiot for not recognising him, superficial for going after superman... Etc.
Batman still does these questionable things. Nobody minds. Yet, when superman does it all hell breaks lose. Sheesh! People have taken the christ imagery to heart.
