In an announcement made on ABC's The View this morning, Thor, Marvel's God of Thunder, will henceforth be a woman in the comics. The news is a major shift in Marvel's continuity, since Thor is one of the oldest superheroes in the Marvel universe. Details are forthcoming. (via Yahoo)Listen, I don't have any kind of emotional connection to Thor, or any comic books for that matter. I never read them when I was younger. I was one of the normal kids that played sports outside and stuff. I did see the Avenger movie and that's about as far as my Thor knowledge goes. But I feel like this is kinda stupid right? Like, I was about to be pissed off about how feminists probably pressured them into doing it, but I don't even think that's what happened. I think Marvel is just a bunch of pussies..
I have no problem with female superheroes. Like I said, I wasn't really into comic books to have a strong feeling about it. At the very least I think most of them are pretty hot right? I just feel like if you have a character that's a dude, why would you all of a sudden change it to not be a dude? I mean last time I checked, Thor was like a real thing in some cultures, like religion and stuff. The dude is a god of some sort right? Like in actual Norse Mythology. Is this gonna be like making Jesus a girl to some people? Cause I'm pretty sure that could start a war. I don't know the whole thing just seems strange to me. Again, this is probably the last time i'll ever think about it, and i'll probably forget that it even happened in a week's time, but still...weird.
PS: You know what, I could get into it...
