T-Rexes were born in wee little eggs, and they came out all tiny and adorable. I know, I know: paleontologists have been saying this for years, but we never believed them because they couldn’t produce tiny adorable plushies to prove it. UNTIL NOW.  Micro T-Rex is three inches of soft and fuzzy adorable, and comes with that removable plastic keychain clip you see pictured, so he’s ready to hang out wherever you go! He is Down for Hangouts!  I would type more but he’s TOO CUTE, look at his little arms, i’m DYING

Guys these just came out today and I really think you should buy one.  Only $8.50!  How can you put a PRICE on LOVE 

What if I do a mini-t-Rex mini-giveaway…..??
This is a great idea!  EVERYONE who reblogs this gets one entry, and tomorrow I will choose one reblog at random and send them one!  REBLOG AWAY AND T-REX MIGHT COME LIVE IN YOUR HOUSE / HANG OFF YOUR FINGERS AND KEYS

Ok so April and I have been seeing all these COMPLAINTS about how “unrealistic” and “sexist” comic books are in the way they portray women and their bodies.

WELL we have decided that you are all crazy feminists and there is nothing wrong with how women are drawn in comic books.

So to prove this we have decided to show you that not only are women portrayed realistically in comics, but we do most of these so called “impossible” and “ridiculous” poses on a daily basis just by naturally going about our buisness. 

And if THIS doesn’t convince you, just wait ‘til next week! We plan to post a new picture each Wednesday and friday. And if you think that this is some sort of joke or that this is not how we perform tasks on a daily basis, then fuck you! You don’t know our lives.

We DEFY you to find a pose that we don’t do on normal, average day…..come at us bro! 

This whole series is beautiful.

I decided to whip this up after browsing through your blog today…  I wanted to see what it would look like if the two characters with such ridiculous poses and outfits were male.  Just as I suspected, drawing this made me feel *dirty.*  I love tasteful male nudes, but drawing this felt very uncomfortable and sexist.  I wonder if/how these male artists can draw females like this and not feel anything out of the ordinary.
I decided not to take a humorous approach because it seems the man who drew the original cover took it very seriously.  But male or female, I think the end result is ridiculous enough to warrant a laugh.
If men had to look at lovingly rendered sexualized portrayals of their bodies at every turn, I figure they’d probably feel as uncomfortable as I do upon entering a comic shop.

This is brilliant.  Both the drawing and your commentary.  I don’t think there’s much more I can add, except maybe this: if men WERE drawn like that, I know I wouldn’t feel more inclined to buy those comics, especially if I wasn’t interested in the comic or heroes in the first place.  If women WEREN’T drawn like that, I doubt male readership would drop noticeably at all (if anything it might increase because any men who leave would be replaced by men who like non-porny, heroic art).

Welcome to: If Male Superhero Costumes were Designed Like Female Superhero Costumes!

Aaaaa I dunno. I got tired of guys having no idea why girls find female superhero’s costumes kinda sexist, so I, um, made this?

My main goals were: 1) Make it so the first thing you think of when you look at them is sex, whether you want to or not. 2) make it so that any male human who looks at this feels really uncomfortable. 3) make it funny, because, well, it’s kinda hilarious really.

Not trying to start a war here, just wanted to poke a bit of fun.

So, here you go menfolk, welcome to being a girl who likes comics.

Okay I can’t tell what’s funnier: the fact that she is confronting this person with the mighty power of her right butt cheek, or THAT GUN. THAT GUN.
Also when lady heroes just kind of hover with their legs and butts akimbo. So great.


I DREW AN IRON MAN. HE SO EMPOWERED AND SEXY WITH HIS BUTT CHEEKS.

Iron Man is on his knees, twisted to face the viewer with his butt sticking out enticingly

The original Avengers promo image and Kevin Bolk’s wonderful, pointed parody.

I’d see this movie.
