beccaelizabethI'm browsing wall art, big framed posters and so forth, and they're mostly SF and superhero stuff.
They're also all men.
Paging down like men, men, violent men, men men men, Marilyn Monroe with her skirt blowing up, men men men.
There are more pictures of puppet Yoda than there are of women. There are more of Daleks.
Sometimes I'm just going through my day, lalala, not really thinking about stuff, and then BOOM, Patriarchy! And it's so ugly blatant I just... no.
In related news, I'm not buying any Avengers merchandise that thinks there's only four team members.
And we really need lady superhero merch.
