Wonder Woman Messed Up Golden Age Stories
I came across this blog (That I will make a link to when I find it again) that had some interesting pictures in it of DC comics golden age. These are the story ideas I found the most messed up. The golden age of comics had a very mean streak that was "normal" to most Americans. I think the ideas in these stories are more damaging to youngsters than the "sex and violence" most parents are so afraid of.
What makes this messed up? Wonder Woman is a warrior woman from an island of warrior women. The reason they went to this island was to get away for men thinking of them as lesser. Yet Wonder Woman volunteers to be just that, less.
What makes this messed up? Look at the men in this picture. Most of these guys are not warriors or soldiers. Yet the woman trained from birth is not fit enough for them to go to war. Even worse she doesn't complain. She just wishes them luck. I guess after she goes to answer the phone or type up whatever one would.
What makes this messed up? The way they drew the Japanese soldiers during World War Two. Also, looking at how the Justice League treats her. The Japanese soldiers actually show Diana more respect for her warrior abilities than her so called team members.
What makes this messed up? "A very feminine woman... a nurse," this quote and the idea that her mother would be proud basically says every reason the Amazons went to the island doesn't matter. Women shouldn't be warriors it's not feminine. Also it teaches the young boys who read this that women shouldn't be strong. No wonder so many older men are against women being "out of the home" aka want to live as it was in the fifties.
What makes this messed up? From the little I know of Golden Age stories the women always seem to either be boy crazy, stalkerish, or in some love triangle. It basically says that women can't have a story without being indecisive about men. The sad thing is this is still how many shows do stories with young girls today. So I will let it slide in the one where she is a teenager. However the problem is she still has the problem as an adult woman. And even worse she asks the reader to help her. She is so inept that she needs the reader (most likely a male at the time) to help her out. As a woman she can't be expected to do it all alone, right?
