Wonder less isn't a woman is it?

   "Wonder Woman

Wonder Woman comic writer Greg Rucka sat down for an  interview with Cosmicosity and straight up said Wonder Woman sometimes loves the ladies. OMG THINK OF THE CHILDREN.
[Y]es, [Wonder Woman is queer]. I think it’s more complicated though. This is inherently the problem with Diana: we’ve had a long history of people — for a variety of reasons, including sometimes pure titillation, which I think is the worst reason — say, “Ooo. Look. It’s the Amazons. They’re gay!” And when you start to think about giving the concept of Themyscira its due, the answer is, “How can they not all be in same sex relationships?” Right? It makes no logical sense otherwise. It’s supposed to be paradise. You’re supposed to be able to live happily. You’re supposed to be able — in a context where one can live happily, and part of what an individual needs for that happiness is to have a partner — to have a fulfilling, romantic and sexual relationship. And the only options are women. But an Amazon doesn’t look at another Amazon and say, “You’re gay.” They don’t. The concept doesn’t existNow, are we saying Diana has been in love and had relationships with other women? As Nicola and I approach it, the answer is obviously yes. And it needs to be yes for a number of reasons. But perhaps foremost among them is, if no, then she leaves paradise only because of a potential romantic relationship with Steve [Trevor]. And that diminishes her character. It would hurt the character and take away her heroism.

A young lady style

img_1133
   "Shopping for a tween girl is HARD. I know – I am currently LIVING it. They don’t fit in the kid’s departments anymore and they are too young for the stores you shop in — so where do you go? This is my current mission. I’ve decided to start documenting all the great finds I score while hunting down picks for Natalie just in case you are in the same boat as me.
Don’t expect full blown photo shoots. It’s really more of a time capsule of ideas. A look into what she’s wearing to school every day with links to purchase. I don’t want to burden her with full blown shoots. She will HATE me if I start doing that. BUT a pic before she heads onto the bus is completely feasible.
This morning, Natalie wore theMini Edna Dress from Lilly Pulitzer. It’s is a cotton knit tunic dress with a waterfall hem and rolled sleeves. It’s SUPER easy to wear and it’s no fuss. But… it’s as cute as can BE! Love this printed tunic dress."

How do you like me now?

 


   "Last week was so much fun! I tailgated for the very first time and then I made a commitment to working out at home using YouTube videos. Ok, the at-home workouts aren’t so much fun. But honestly, it’s time to start getting fit!! The gym – while I love the place – is HARD TO GET TO. Now, there are no excuses to be made. I mean, I can just open up my laptop and BOOM "

English dress of sorts

   "It’s the opening day of the Royal Ascot horse races in the UK, which reliably unleashes a flood of photos of fancy folks dressed to the nines. It’s been wire service fodder for decades, and news archives are full of glamorous photos going back to the 1920s or even before.
But if you really want to see something special, you must to look to the looks of the late 1980s and early 1990s. First it was the era of Dynasty and Jilly Cooper and everybody was infatuated with enormous wealth; then the florals utterly hijack the proceedings. Consequently, the snapshots from Ladies Day in this particular stretch of time are astounding.
Every other picture looks like an advertisement for Virginia Slims.

You get to 1991 and suddenly the floppy hats appear, of course.

Don’t mind me, just leaning on my Rolls.

Sure, this shot doesn’t feature any jaw-dropping designer hats, but it’s worth it because it’s a picnic spread out on the hood of a BMW. Pardon me, do you have any Grey Poupon? (Certainly not, they have something much fancier.)

Cheerio, or whatever!

You think people have adopted completely ridiculous ensembles purely for the sake of social media? Wrong.

Nothing said “luxury” in 1992 like a cell phone on your hat. It was a more innocent time, obviously."

Much more than a beautiful face

   "This stunning girl appeared on a cover of “National Geographic” in 1984, and the world quickly took notice. The photographer found her in a refugee camp along the Pakistan/Afghan border."

   "Even Elvis didn’t look picture perfect all the time without some help. The star got his hair cut and styled at a Memphis barbershop in 1956."

Another sporty woman look!

"  Healthy lifestyle and wearing althleisure style clothing is definitely a huge trend right now. Models like Gigi Hadid, Kendall Jenner, and Hailey Baldwin have made altheisure wear their everyday uniform. Celebrities have made wearing athletic wear for every day errands popular and because of this, unique sportswear is in high demand.
Because athletic clothing is so on the rise and in demand right now, different brands of this type of clothing have surfaced in response to its popularity. Brands such as Michi, Equilibrium, and Sauvage Sport are althleisure brands that aren't as mainstream as Lululemon and for that reason have become popular. These brands sell leggings, sports bras, shirts, and even matching sets.
Michi athletic wear is very trendy and looks futuristic. This brand is the perfect example of athletic meets high fashion. From their net shirts to their shear leggings Michi clothing is a cool new twist on the athletic wear trend .

Clothes for the first lady!

"Many people do not realize that when Our First Lady is seen in a designer evening gown at a state event like a dinner for a visiting Prime Minister or President, the dress is a "loaner" given to her to wear just for that event, as a means for the dress designer to get free advertising, 
similar to designer dresses loaned to actresses to wear at awards ceremonies, like this Vera Wang-designed gown loaned to actress Emma Watson (The "Harry Potter" movies) for the Oscars ceremony. (Do people really think Emma Watson bought the dress for that one night out of her own bank account?)

A MOTHER AND DAUGHTER SHOPPING EXPERIENCE BEGINS AGAIN

"   Ah, the American Mall. It's a beacon of teenage independence, the site of many a movie makeover, and a windowless prison where mothers and daughters go to scream at each other. In theory, shopping with your mom is a magical bonding experience that comes with a bunch of free clothes. In practice, it's an emotional roller coaster ride that often ends in public crying.
One moment, you're sipping caramel macchiatos and laughing like a mom and daughter in a stock photo. The next, you're locked in a heated disagreement over what constitutes a "sensible shoe" (mom: running shoes; you: open-toed sandals with no arch support) and people are staring. Modesty, body image, and parental control will come into play, as the entire experience is engineered to dredge up all the messy maternal feels. It's not to say that you don't love each other and all, but by the end of your Mall trip, you may be questioning whether or not you truly share the same DNA.
In FX's new comedy Better Things, created by and starring Pamela Adlon, we see honest depictions of these and other perennial moments of motherhood. For all the humans who have survived the mother-daughter shopping trip, we've partnered with Better Things to break down the experience. Cause when it comes to shopping with mom, sometimes you have to laugh just to keep yourself from sobbing in the food court.







Catch the Better Things premiere on 9/8 at 10pm E/P on FX.

Stage 1: Excitement








Symptoms: Affection, enthusiasm, grand delusions of immediate compromise, high expectations ready to be shattered.
What mom is thinking: "What fun! A chance to really level with my daughter as a friend and equal. Maybe we can get ~matching outfits~"
What daughter is thinking: "What fun! Free stuff! All I have to do is give my mom the pleasure of my company for two hours, and some fresh new duds are mine."







Monetary price: Zero dollars.
Emotional price: An eventual fall from harmonious, mother-daughter grace... to come later.

Stage 2: Realizing Your Irreconcilable Differences








Symptoms: Mom and daughter picking out things that are diametric opposites, Mom goes for practicality, Daughter goes for cool factor, debate and rabbling begin to simmer, both parties agree that they like one small token as a good-will gesture.
What the mom is thinking: "Everything she wants looks like it was cut for a toddler."
What the daughter is thinking: "Everything she likes is too big, too boring, or too similar to what she dressed me in as a kid."







Monetary price: $20 for a pair of sunglasses that you can both agree you need.
Emotional Price: Mounting tension.

Stage 3: Persuasion and Bargaining








Symptoms: Both parties attempting to persuade each other in favor of their respective opinions. Bribery with affection, free food, or other commodities may be employed.
What the mom is thinking: "How did I raise a creature who doesn't understand how impractical pre-ripped clothing is? If I can get her to buy those mid-rise Bermuda shorts, she'll thank me later."
What the daughter is thinking: "How does she not get it?! Rips make jeansmore expensive,. It's simple economics!"
Monetary price: A pair of modest shorts that mom likes more than daughter, and thus, agrees to buy.
Emotional price: A mom's resentment at a daughter's snobby, sarcastic agreement to wear the aforementioned shorts.

Stage 4: Full-Scale Breakdown








Symptoms: Anger, frustration, Mom making passive aggressive comments, Daughter making bratty comments, crying, frequently takes place in shoe departments.
What the mom thinks: "FINE! She wants some inane gladiator sandals?! Let's see if I'll be here to pay for the privilege of her abuse when she comes crawling back after these torture devices chew her feet up. JUST like life.







What the daughter thinks: "UUUGH!!! Why can't she stop trying to control my identity and let me show the world who I am with these Gladiator Sandals?!? I AM MY OWN PERSON!!"
Monetary price: $100 for a pair of impractical, trendy shoes bought out of spite.
Emotional price: A daughter's self esteem, a mother's self-respect; trust.

Stage 5: Reconciliation and Acceptance








Symptoms: Apologies, stopping for ice cream, an agreement that the mall is the villain here. Usually preceded by a period of cold silence and mounting guilt.







What mom thinks: "I'm never doing this again...."
What daughter thinks: "I'm never doing this again..."
Monetary price: $10 for 2 ice cream cones, because ice cream smooths everything over.
Emotional price: A tacit understanding that clothing (like politics) is something that will always be a controversial topic between you two. And that, despite what they swear, they will endure this horrible episode again."
