wondering if you've seen this?

Ah yes, the fantasy that all women are made of boobs and ass and nothing else. Just piles of boobs, stuffed into clothing in the shape of the human form.

well, i'm not that surprised by that i guess. i mean, comics do it all the time.

i did think it was a bit odd that this would be the statuette that marvel would release to "celebrate" mj's success. that is, unless she's changed her job to hooker and i didn't know.

i'm also curious to know if chris/steve/anyone else had heard of this on other comicbloggers. i imagine that both being left leaning guys wouldn't be happy w/this sort of misogynistic portrayal. but, hey, surprise me.

I don't know, yeah some comics do tend towards exaggerated proportions but the MJ figurine isn't just about the big boobs and an itty bitty waist.

I mean, she's bent over in a very uh, receptive position; she is, dare I say, exhibiting mammalian lordosis.

Plus she's doing Peter Parker's laundry. I mean, fuck not even hookers do that. You know?

I blame the patriarchy.

yes, more good points.

I think you probably could hire a hooker to do your laundry.
