  1. I think that is just a bunch of crap. Avengers tee shirts should cost the same and should not be sexist. Yes marvel has female super heros but not as much male super heros

  6. this is honestly just stupid. its just a t-shirt. the only people who think of things like this are the ones who sit at home and don't have a significant other to cope with them and think of ridiculous things like this.

  7. 1) This is a woman's newsfeed
    2)Isn't The huffington post out of the UK?
    Power to women? The women who make up these stupid things to make it seem like society thinks women are "weak" are total liars... They can't say that they wouldn't love a man to come to her rescue...

  8. This is completely silly. It's not meant to be a sexist thing at all, it's just a company selling tee shirts. Something as stupid as this sound like it was started by someone who's just begging for attention.

  11. Isn't it usually the girls who want to be rescued by the hero? do they not want the guys to swoop down and save them? I'm not saying that they cant be heros also but i just dont see why its a big deal. Its not like they are trying to be sexist.

  12. This is a pointless argument. They are just t-shirts, not a big deal. It can easily be solved, all marvel has to do is make a girls shirt that says the same thing has the boys. People are making a big deal out of nothing.

  13. People who want to eliminate sexism need to start looking at bigger issues, not children's t-shirts.

  14. Its a marketing campaign if people were really that upset with it, they would stop buying the clothes! its that simple

  16. Are we all forgetting about wonder woman? There are female super heroes out there. The t shirt is just saying I need a hero, you can pretty much translate that into I need a boyfriend. Its not saying I'm a girl and I'm not capable of taking care of myself.
