One Of Your Favorite Dc Comics Character Might Be Gay.

Wonder Woman or Batgirl first came to my mind when I read that.

Back when I watched the TV show, I thought that Wonder Woman was a Lesbian. (No that there is anything wrong with that.)

She was all the time kicking men's behinds. Comes from an island of Amazons. The word Lesbian cames from the island of Lesbos.

From Wikipedia:

One meaning of the word lesbian derives from the poems of Sappho, who was born in Lesbos and who wrote with powerful emotional content directed toward other females. It is due to this association that Lesbos and especially the town of Eresos, her birthplace, are visited frequently by lesbian tourists, (Main article: LGBT tourism) much to the chagrin of some deeply conservative and traditionalist Greek Orthodox elements of the island's population. In 2008, a group of Lesbos islanders lost a court case against the Homosexual and Lesbian Community of Greece. The Lesbos islander group had requested a legal injunction to bar homosexual groups from using the word "lesbian" in their names, which the petitioners claim violated their human rights as it is "insulting" and disgraces them around the world

Very long read, but I'm not the only one who thinks this about Wonder Woman.

to me it has to be a character that #1 has their own title, #2 is on the weaker side of sales. making robin gay won't sell more batman issues, or superman, but making green arrow gay might increase the circulation of his comics

him and green lantern have been fuging each other in the ass since day one anyway

Lol. DC and gay just make so much sense.

By in all seriousness, if they're doing this just for the publicity or to make some dumb political statement then shame on them.

Why not just create a new character if they wanted have a gay character?

Its all for publicity and a political move. DC knows this will get them good press, sort of like when Mavel introduced Miles Morales as the African-American Spider Man.
