yeah pretty much. The bondage was more than just kink, it was a metaphor for empowerment and breaking free.

I tried to explain this to this guy who moved Meg’s refrigerator in and was like “WHOA WONDER WOMAN POSTER IN YER ROOM DO YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT WONDER WOMAN” (and what the fuck sort of question is that, like I wouldn’t if I had the poster) and I just angrily pointed at the ten graphic novels and then the guys is like “LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT HER CREATOR HE WAS INTO BONDAGE UM WHAT WAS HIS NAME” and I was like “William Moulton Marston, his penname was Charles, the bondage was a metaphor for empowerment as well as his kink and he had two wives/lovers that were fairly involved in her creation. Also he was a psycholigist and contributed to stuff about the lie detector” and he STILL KEPT trying to explain to me facts about Marston like I was a four year old and HADN’T JUST PROVEN I KNEW MORE THAN HIM. Like “Wow, that’s interesting. But he also thought women should rule the world.” And I was like “Yes he was a radical feminist who thought women should be in charge” AND THEN HE KEEPS GOING like “have you ever actually read the comics” he didn’t stop until I kicked him out and Justin was basically laughing at him the whole time.

The moral of this story is I am tired of being mansplained about Wonder Woman.
