Let’s talk about
Themyscira and just how different their society would be when it comes to sex and love
First of all as we saw there is no taboo on nudity. The naked body is not considered a big thing. Things like scars and skills in battle are quite considered a far sexier thing then nudity could ever be
Second it’s very likely that due to their immortality and isolation from the rest of the world long term romantic relationships live side with with polyamourous ones as well as casual sex
Which brings me to Diana….the only child on the entire island. Literally every single Amazon on the island would have known her since she was a tiny baby,.
Her fighting skills would be decades if not centuries behind the other Amazons, her skin would be flawless and barely have any scars on it and her muscles while adequate were nothing to really write home about. By the standards of Amazonian society she would probably be the least sexually attractive Amazon on the island. So imagine teenage Diana with her hormones raging, reading all night about the pleasure of the flesh and trying cringe worthy attempts to flirt with the other Amazonian warriors. And nothing works so frustrated she puts all her energy into her training until one day years later…she beats Antiope in a training match. The very same night she gets asked out by three Amazonians and suddenly Diana is finally the new hot thing in town and she is loving it
TL;DR: To the outside world Diana is the most attractive woman in the universe in Themyscira she was an awkward skinny nerd who couldn’t get laid for decades
hot news: male reviewer of wonder woman has never heard of lesbians in his life, more at 7
“lives sexlessly without men”
Weak cishet males
Amazon Society: *produces a 12 volume work on the subject of pleasure*
Diana: When it comes to procreation, men are essential, but for pleasure, not necessary.
Male Reviewer: I guess that means they don’t know about sex!
Me: Harold, they’re lesbians.
I thought it was pretty clear that both women (but very obviously Antiope) had wives/partners who appeared in multiple background scenes. But even without that, uh wtf?
LOLOLOLOLOLOL
A lesbian friend and I were discussing how cis men can’t handle any kind of sexuality that doesn’t center men. And this is just yet more proof. OMG.
