Is anyone else P.O’ed by the stereotype that a strong, independent fighting woman has to be gay? Why can’t we have a straight, strong, independent fighting woman? I am sick of the stereotype. The few times when we have an independent, straight, fighting woman, most of the time she has to be rescued still by a man. Show a straight woman who can handle herself in a fight. Break that stereotype. I’m not against gays. I’m against stereotyping that all strong, aggressive, fighting women have to be gay.

Seriously have you not been paying attention to anything in the modern media, just hating on the fact we get a homosexual heroine in the DCU?? Kate Kane is a lesbian, fact. Kate Kane is a strong well trained fighter, fact. Kate Kane is Batwoman, fact. Why can’t we get a strong independent male hero whose gay/has zero love interests/is not suffering from tragic backstory so people know he has feelings?? How about you just enjoy the show and quit the complaining about the gays getting representation in the media via a strong, independent fighting female superhero.
