AWE.SOME. I would love if clothing catalogues came with cartoon and comic book character's body's. It would be so much easier for those of us with eyes on rotating wheels to have a real idea of what the cloths would look like on us. AMIRITE?

She-Ra was a cornerstone of feminism when I was growing up, those of you too young to remember it were robbed, basically.

She was a pretty lame X-man all told.

Looking back at it now and realizing how horrendously cheesy it was, how bad the animation was, it's fascinating to me how that just completely sailed over my infant head.
It was the sheer fact that the cartoon existed at all, that the person with the power was a girl and that I was a girl and she was fighting the bad guys on her own that got me.

I asked him how could American comic books compete with the burgeoning popularity of japanese manga, especially with respect to female readers. He in turn replied that girls already read comic books.
1) that's not what I said
2) Clearly, clearly American comic book sales flag in comparison to their Japanese counterparts
3) missing a sizeable portion of more than half the American population is not something to scoff at either socially or financially
But, it was Stan Lee. Just, well I'll just open it up for discussion.

I also used to run around the house dressed as She-Ra. I would run to get my "outfit" on just in time to jump on the couch for the opening credits.

As for She-Ra, I still have my action figure, but she has two flesh coloured spots on her chest where the white paint was rubbed off. I realised in my teens that this was done by my two older male cousins whenever I would fall asleep after playing He-Man and She-ra. Boys. *eyeroll*
