I think it’s best Kamala hasn’t revealed her identity to her fellow young teammates, all that would become of it would probably just be like

People really making posts about Thor hating Tony when we all know Thor is literally incapable of disliking anyone smh

[anthropofagy-deactivated2021041]

is he really a lesbian ally if he doesn’t hate tony stark, known misogynist 

[fugayyyku]

Y'all really still calling the only male character in a committed and healthy relationship a misogynist because he was a slut for the first 20 minutes of iron man 1 okay okay

[robertdowneyjjr]

tony stark literally:

made a woman the ceo of his fortune 500 company

turned to helen cho, an asian woman doctor, for help on medical and scientific advances that he didn’t understand, and explicitly said her ideas to leave his iron man suits in the dust is the plan for the future

like @one-piece-of-harry said, has been in a committed relationship with the same woman since 2010 and is about to marry her

when natasha asked for his impression, instead of physically objectifying her, analyzed her personality and said she had a quiet reserve and an old soul, didn’t say anything about her looks

called maya hansen one of the most gifted women he’s ever met after she told him about her research. when the “glitch” happened with the plant and caused the explosion, he never said anything condescending, just made suggestions on how to improve instead (before happy tackled him to the bed)

but i mean, he slept with dozens of women in his past just like any other guy playing the field so of course he’s a misogynist. totally.

[starkravinghazelnuts-deactivate]

Oh god not the “Tony Stark is a misogynist because he slept around” crap again. As progressive as people who like to throw around these buzzwords are, they sure do like slut-shame, right? Who cares if he had consensual sex with multiple partners?

And before anyone brings up ~prima nocta~ it was a joke – and one written by Joss “I’m a Feminist” Whedon – it was obvious Tony was bringing up something he would never do. And if people are still slamming Tony for one joke written by Whedon I better see people dragging Loki for “mewling quim” just as much (because that’s about as close Whedon could get Loki to saying “whiny cunt” with the censors).

Some of ya “Thor the feminist would hate Tonky Stork” are hypocritical as fuck cuz you like to completely forget Thor threw himself into a bloody fight because a Frost Giant called him “princess.” Characters learn and grow and become better. None of them are perfect angel babies and stop pretending they are.

Some of y'all just like to hate on Tony regardless of the canon, and it’s transparent as hell.

I will reblog this every time I see it. You can’t stop me.

[ironspidey37]

112% true FACTS!! I’ve had it with these Tony anti’s….i mean COME ON!!

[impossibleormerelyfantastic]

Not even afraid to bring up Comics yo:

1. Tony consistently trusts women over men. Not just because “women are more trustworthy” but truly trusts their expertise and advise.             - Vol 3, wouldn’t listen to Scott Lang for shit but Jane Foster says the same thing and Tony 100% changes his tune             - Vol 3, opened a WOMAN’S SHELTER FOR ABUSED WOMEN AND TEENS PICKED UP PROSTITUTES, PAID THEM FOR TWO HOURS SO THEY COULD TALK WITH A BLACK FEMALE THERAPIST HE PUT IN CHARGE OF SAID SHELTER AND HE FUCKING LEFT             - Vol 3, felt like a CREEPER for checking out Rumiko while she was wind surfing, he didn’t even say anything he was just “Oh look at that pretty woman being all awesome” and then fucking felt like a creeper when she spotted him             - Vol 1, when Carol Danvers (as a reporter) said Stark Industries didn’t have enough women he volunteered that he was piloting a program to get more women involved

2. Tony puts women in charge whenever he can             - West Coast Avengers, Tony appointed Wanda. Yeah, he did some dick things but Wanda didn’t let him get away with it              - Avengers Initiative, Tony appointed Carol deliberately because he not only trusted her expertise as a leader but also knew she would never let him cross a line              - Continually left/leaves Pepper in charge of the company that he deems his personal legacy and responsibility for the world.

3. Tony will side with women over men. IN A GODDAMN HEARTBEAT             - Avengers Disassembled, rebuttaled Stephen Strange when Strange suggested Wanda needed to be killed

4. Tony is literally the epitome of “Chivalry” like ya’ll think Steve Rogers is because he’s from the 40s??? Tony frickin’ went to all boys boarding school where they TEACH CLASSES on proper etiquette, and would ditch class to read King Arthur. And you wanna come into my house, MY HOUSE, suggesting little Tony reading King Arthur did not LOVE Guinevere???? And does not carry those idealistic morals into his adulthood??? HAVE YOU NOT SEEN HIS AESTHETIC???

5. Tony almost married someone named Indries Moomji, she used and abused him and broke his heart but guess what guys. When she did it, he came in all excited to see the woman he thought he loved and was affectionately pawing at her and she told him to stop and HE STOPPED. He LOOKED LIKE A HURT PUPPY BUT HE STOPPED. He didn’t shit talk, he didn’t play stupid ass games, he stopped and when she told him she was done with him he LEFT AND GOT DRUNK AND RHODEY HAD TO TAKE HIM TO HIS MOTHER’S HOUSE

6. Tony’s advise to Vision about women was to stop reading dumbfuck magazines and just enjoy getting to know her as a person and that the adventure in getting to know someone is the FUN PART

7. Tony Stark is a helpless hopeless romantic who has been abused as a child from his father, had a mother that defended him which left him believing in the power and trust of women. Has had nothing but fierce women in his life both romantically and platonically that DO. NOT. PUT. UP. WITH. HIS. SHIT. But he’s been broken beyond that and so hides under sarcasm and flirtatious banter to move through a society that requires it’s top echelon males to act a certain way, and yet STILL is a leader both professionally and personally in the proper way to treat HUMAN BEINGS IN GENERAL but ESPECIALLY WOMEN and not just white women either. Black women, Asian Women, Middle Eastern Women. Women from all backgrounds and all colors.

8. The best part about ALL of this, is even in canon people talk like this about Tony Stark, and you know what he does? He goes around supporting young women like RiRi, he gives Kamala hugs and reassurance, he keeps in touch with Carol to keep him grounded and support her in ways no one else understands, he keeps Natasha in touch with reality (and Natasha will CUT A BITCH over Tony Stark), and he was trying to impress an MIT research doctor with FEMALE THOR. 

Tony Stark is the feminist we need but don’t deserve, you know why? Because he’s REAL. He treats women as PEOPLE, not as objects to be saved and yet at the same time he treats them as GODDESSES to be worshipped. 

I could go on but it’s late and my brain isn’t working, but the point is for ever half ass joke, whether you appreciate it or not, for every bullshit “Tony slapping someone’s ass”, for every moment Tony is in a strip club or expressing that male chauvinistic side there are TENS if not HUNDREDS of times he’s done nothing but used his standing as a rich white male to be an ally to women.

Oh that one burned him. His jaw set, a muscle twitched in response to the well placed jab. He straightened himself a bit more, fingers curled until the leather creaked from the flexion. The shadows movement was not lost upon him. He didn’t move to leave, but he simply observed what was happening.  He’d seen a lot of things in his day, but that…whatever it was, happened to be freaking creepy. He hadn’t come here looking for this kind of confrontation, but he could count on one hand how many times he had backed down from a fight. “If that’s what you feel like you need to do…”

Whether or not the man belonged, he certainly hadn’t done anything wrong outside of wandering into the wrong place. Al didn’t mean to hurt him for that. But there was something to the man that really infuriated Spawn. The suit itself wanted to attack this man for reasons beyond Spawn’s fathoming, but he assumed it was his own demonic blood boiling.

In response to the hero’s answer, Spawn hissed and allowed the shadows to recede into their more natural state, excepting the fact that even as he stood apart from them, the shadows seemed to connect themselves to Al’s feet.

“It’s a waste of time, go on your business. Leave it the way you find it, and don’t touch anyone.” Seeming to glide as he moved, the hellspawn disappeared into the darkness again, although he was hardly gone.

⚡ — “ Pal? Uh, more like peer but yeah. “ Family, really, but he wasn’t too keen on stating that out loud for obvious reasons. He shrugs, “ He’s not that bad, really. He’s always bristly when it comes to people he doesn’t know. “ he says, before grinning and pointing at the lightning bolt emblem on his chest, 

“ I’m The Flash, fastest man alive and a founding member of the Justice League, so I work with Bats a lot. Since we’re doing intros and all, who are you? Never seen you around Central City before. ”

“Ah, well that explains why it’s hard to keep up with you. I’m Spawn.” The introduction was direct, and to the point, but it was rather obvious that he didn’t mean to give up too much information about what his whole thing was. After all, such information needed protection in case non-hellish ears were listening.

Looking around, the hellspawn then began to explain, “I usually do this in New York, but a few friends of mine’v gone missing, and I think whoever, or whatever, took ‘em’s in Central City.” It was true, Tom, and Richard, had both disappeared a few weeks ago, usually more than enough time to consider someone dead, but the morgues didn’t have any of their corpses in New York. And when Jerry was got, he had seen a business card for some coffee place in Central City at the site.

A mediocre lead, but his only one.

“Well well well. The Hell Spawn in the flesh.” Cigar smoke drifted towards the caped stalker. “Heard a lot about you, pal. Gotta say…I dig the look.”

[rexspawned-blog]

“Gotta say, ‘m flattered my reputation proceeds me. But it’s just Spawn.” He didn’t seem to react to the smoke as it dispersed against Al’s mask. “Can’t say I’ve heard anything about you, though.”

“Gulf War, huh?”  Slowly, the flames faded away, revealing a human face.  Eyes heavy, and mouth masked by a bed of hair.  It’s been millennia since Frank last rested, and it will be a cold day in hell before he rests again.

“Three tours in ‘Nam.  Came home to a family, they…”  He pauses.  “Left.”  It’s a euphemism, softens the blow.  “Then I returned to war, and made war my life’s mission.”

“I had a wife.” The man thought of Wanda, of her new family and how happy she was without Al. It wasn’t at all fair of him to expect anything else, but that didn’t mean it didn’t hurt him to dwell on it. “Was dead for 15 years so..... She moved on. Like she should.”

Like a part of me wants to ship

Like this to put Al in charge of being your role model

whether he wants to or not

I’ve been seeing a lot of threat posts lately and honestly? Fuck that shit. People could have made nice posts but no - y’all gotta go and give people anxiety. No-one needs to reblog bupkis.
