[wwondeus]

the title of WONDER WOMAN is interpreted in so many different ways, all of them to do with her performance as a superhero. there is a focus on her existence as a superhero, rather than her existence as herself - in short, there is an expectation that diana bears, that she does not intend to bear, but cannot at the same time escape. she is helpless to this title, which is more of a curse than anything else.

to dispute a wide claim, yes, diana sleeps with her bracelets on.

[wwondeus]

 elektra babey and tomorrow, i will do things on diana.

[wwondeus]

literally comic book characters are kinda sexy in the way they incorporate philosophy & some kind of epistemology into them

[wwondeus]

it’s important to me to include, in any social space, how people cling to diana as if they expect for her to grant miracles. they cling to her as if she is a savior (her friend calls her “messianic” and here it remains as is), and they look to her as if she truly is the messiah. they call her “wonder” woman and they liken her to a god (in which comparisons of her to superman come into play, as he is truly seen as god) and they expect her to act as one

[wwondeus]

waiting for someone to write the cheetah bc diana & her connection re: the gods, medusa, godliness & blessings/curses is so fun

[wwondeus]

im so in love with diana’s goodness, her dedication to truth and to being herself. she is a prophetic character, literally a prophet for themyscira and she’s constantly seen as holy, as otherworldly even though she’s not, and godly, but like?? she’s such a good person. she truly cares so deeply about her friends, she loves so deeply and so hard and the trinity wouldn’t be the trinity if she wasn’t there

[wwondeus]

i do want to say, we know themyscria to be called “paradise island” because that is the name we placed onto it. a lot of diana’s being comes from Our perceptions, and Our names (see: the title of wonder woman)

[wwondeus]

diana’s so good for like ... high fantasy situations bc her character is extremely fantastical and thats why i love her.

[wwondeus]

speaking of female counterparts the relationship between diana & barbara isn’t romantic but a game of “who’s better/who will leave alive”, with a weird kind of fellowship; barbara wishes to kill diana, but diana wishes to save her (which she does on countless ocassions) and barbara saves diana, and so forth
