I think. I think this can be classed as "relevant to your interests". And if it's not, well, it should be. Trigger warning for slut-shaming.

Observe the beautifully worded and well thought out views of James Gunn, the director-to-be on Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy (yes, written over a year ago, but is that the point? I think not. Also, original article available here through Google Cache):

1. “for those men that love rude bitches, [emma frost] the white queen is the way”
2. [on natasha romanoff, the highest ~debut] “considering she’s fucked half the guys in the marvel universe, that’s quite a feat”
3. [on elektra] she’ll “give you a nice, ninja-trained blow job”
4. [on black canary] “i used to think she was the hottest chick in the dcu, but then i remembered that she fucks green arrow”
5. [on dazzler] “a friggin’ great vagina”
6. [on kitty pryde] “i want to anally do her”
7. [on choice of art for jade] “i picked the one with the big tits”
8. [on batwoman] “i’m hoping for a dc-marvel crossover so that tony stark can turn her; she could also have sex with nightwing and still be a lesbian”
9. calls tigra ‘easy’ for no discernible reason along with calling stephanie brown that because she’s a single mother
10. says that he’ll blow a load onto jessica jones’ face so he doesn’t have to look at her

SO! As a result please: Petition to remove James Gunn from Guardians of the Galaxy

[...] Someone created a petition, I signed it, and I hope many people on Tumblr will, too, because Marvel needs to know that we CARE about who will handle big franchises, and how BAD it is that a man like him is allowed to work in this industry, considering his vision of women and women characters is basically, meat.

Signal boost this, please. And let’s see if we can make ourselves heard.

Please sign this. Because I have been into comics for the grand total of about two months and the poor treatment and representation of female characters became apparent to me about 2 days in.

And you know Natasha would ninja this shit.
