You answer with a question like you're not sure:-) I know that it really was more an observation since I hadn't seen it until grumpy's pics

It's such a moot issue, unless your displaying her backwards your not going to see anything and even if you did display her backwards all your seeing is like 1/4 of her butt cheek... She has been drawn this way in comics especially in the 90's, Gadot was wearing a thong when she did her foot sweep move you could see 1/2 her butt cheek... so there is precedence.

If you want to nitpick you could easily argue Tweeterhead Catwoman is a bit risque with a slit so high on her dress.
Oh that slit is tasteful for a ankle length dress.
I like my thongs on the Victoria Secret's runway.

I had forgotten that so thank you for placing that horror in my head.

My sentiment exactly. I am still bitter about how they changed up WW’s costume just to show more A55. I love every other aspects of the XM WW statue but everytime I see a photo of her revealing A55 I get so turned off that it makes me reconsider my decision to purchase. IMO It just kind of distracts from and takes away the awesome fierceness WW shows in the statue. I guess most people will be happy about this part of the design but I certainly am not. Sucks to be the minority I guess.

I want to see female statues more covered up. Not wanting revealing costume for female statue doesn’t mean wanting male statue with revealing costume...

That would make more sense if this was 90’s Wonderwoman. This is specifically REBIRTH wonderwoman, which is the version I love for her more warrior like costume. Besides, most (if not almost all) versions of wonderwoman costume don’t show that much A55.

Yes I too am tired of the objectification of fictional female characters. Wonder Woman never fought in stars and stripe panties and never showed her ass in the comics. Give me a break. When you display this statue your not going to be looking under her skirt. That dude with the star fire pic you should definitely check out Red Hood and the outlaws Vol 1 issue #1 where it shows a hot ass star fire. Nightwing has a running joke where they make his butt look extra nice for readers. Artists draw heroes extra buff and muscular with there shirts off. So what?

So your going to display her backwards high up on a pedestal in order to display her ass? Because that's the only way your going to see it... All the pictures showing her ass are from very low angles looking up behind her.

You must have a heart attack when you go to the beach or lake and see a girl wearing a thong bikini...
