I agree with everything you wroteIt’s almost as if DC Comics, and specifically the Superman office, with zero diversity in its creators and a history of mistreatment of women both on and off the page, has a chronic, specific problem with misogyny and this misogyny has had a marked impact on the way that office treats Lois Lane.
It’s almost as if the women who have been flagging these problems for YEARS now, expressing concern and expressing why the way the office treated Lois in marketing, on the page and in story direction was uncomfortable, sexist and crappy were.....oh...yeah....CORRECT.
Guys, it’s not that you are wrong. You are 100% right. This is all extremely crappy to Lois, extremely sexist and reeks of what happens when you let a bunch of men go unchecked for years on end.
But I knew all this already. Some of us have been sounding the alarm bell on this for years. It’s just that no one ever wanted to hear it. Yes, the office is phenomenally sexist towards Lois and will do literally anything and everything to downplay hey importance in narrative. Had more of you cared and fought back against this years ago, they wouldn’t have continued to get away with it. They are getting away with it now because too many guys let them do it. Had more men demanded more diversity in that office years ago and spoken up when the office treated her like crap....we would’ve be here.
I could care less about any of this because I’ve long ago stopped caring about Superman comics. Distinctly because of sexist stuff like this.
