Wonder Woman is queer

As the number of queer superheroes continues to grow, we finally welcome a high-profile, main DC character to add to our ranks.

Yes, wonder woman is queer. Too broad of a term to settle your wondering mind?
First: stop focusing on what Wonder Woman is doing in the bedroom. Second: writer Greg Rucka says that it is only logical for Wonder Woman to be gay. After all, she does come from an island where men are absent …

“It’s supposed to be paradise. You’re supposed to be able to live happily. You’re supposed to be able… to have a fulfilling, romantic and sexual relationship,” he told Comicosity. “And the only options are women.”

Of course, this has been a question on people’s minds for some time. Again, falling into the basic living conditions of her home, most people could assume that these women have relationships with each other. If you didn’t, then you probably just assumed that these women were living loveless and sexless lives. Which is possible, but really just sad.

In 2015, she presided over a same-sex wedding in Sensation Comics Featuring Wonder Woman, Chapter 48. To date, however, no other DC Comics writer has gone on record regarding whether or not fans can interpret Wonder Woman as a queer character.

Wonder Woman has traditionally been depicted as having a longtime, heterosexual love interest in Steve Trevor. Actually, she often rescues him in a gender-reversed take on the “damsel-in-distress” motif. It appears as if 2017’s hotly-anticipated Wonder Woman film will maintain the heterosexual relationship, with Chris Pine starring as Trevor opposite Gal Gadot in the titular role.

Although she is labeled as queer, it won’t be the focus of the comic — thank god …

“To tell the best stories that we can possibly tell for her, and to the best of our abilities. That is always the eye on the prize for us. If, on the way, we manage to step on bases that expand a larger understanding of Diana’s importance culturally and that answer questions people have, great! And I know this is going to frustrate some people, but that’s not my first order of business.”
