So Marvel’s announced a comic with a gay hero. What a step forward, blah blah… Big deal.

Predictably, there’s some Sally Struthers-lookin’ chick whining it will mess kids up. God, I’m so fucking tired of hearing about the children and how we must protect them. That’s all well and good, but adults — hell, teens — live here too. Let’s get over this unhealthy obsession with using the single-digit-age set as a rhetorical tool to manipulate every little element of our culture.

Also, I don’t know where the wench gets the idea that children will read it, anyway. When’s the last time you saw a kid reading a comic book?

(And yeah, I’m a bit bitchy myself. Maybe I should go back to writing about spectrum.)
