Is Wonder Woman Bi

[UsagiTsukino]

Im the only one who thinks Diana is Bi. I mean two Dc writers hint she was bi. I mean would it really matter if they made her fell in love with a female?

Yes, it would. To me personally. I think its time they returned her to a sexually aware hetrosexual woman before exploring other sexual orientations with her.

I think she should be bi, but I think all fictional characters should be bi.

I also think any proper literary analysis of the Wonder Woman mythos would explore the concept's intrinsic bisexuality (really, queer sexuality) but anything more specific and concrete is nonexistent.

So yeah, I think she's bi, but I don't think she'll be written/acknowledged as bi anytime soon.

tl;dr The subtext is there, but anything more is a ways off.

Personally, I don't think it matters. Wonder Woman loves everyone, as the latest issue has proven, and I see no problem with her having romantic feelings for a woman.

Either way, her sexuality doesn't make her character nor would it (or should it) shape the stories told about her, imo.

Yeah but it's hard to believe she loves everyone when she's never shown to be romantically involved with anyone. I don't think she should be defined by her sexuality, but is Batman? No, but he still gets to have his affairs, so Diana should too (especially especially given her "I love everyone" stance). It's that "Mary Tyler Moore meets the Virgin Mary" issue. If she loves everyone like she says, the only reason she wouldn't have more romance in her life is if she was asexual (which she shouldn't be, IMO).

I'd love for her sexuality to at least be acknowledged, even if it's never really defined (or--especially if--it never defines her).

I always viewed her and the Amazons as mostly bi. Either, or, Wonder Woman's awesome regardless of her sexual orientation. I'd be interesting for it to be touched upon, but I don't want her character to revolve around one aspect of her.

Oh I certainly wouldn't mind a romance - they can be fun and add layers to her mythos. I would just prefer it be told in a more natural way rather than shoehorning someone in, or doing an abrupt character change (like if she suddenly said she was IN love with Zola) as so many stories in so many different media outlets have done before.

But I agree, that DC won't be outing Diana anytime soon, bisexual or lesbian.

[Fate's Faith]

Wonder Woman used to be clearly hetrosexual. I think the old run pre-Crisis is pretty clear there. Not so clear if she ever... did it. But once she became Saint Diana, I suspect she looks a lot like Barbie down in that area.

[Don-Jack]

It doesn't matter, but I think she is, so I voted in these two options.
Pre-crisis she was definitely not, though.

[Quinnhop]

Marston's Wonder Woman was always implicitly bisexual, so I don't know what you two mean by "pre-Crisis."

Pre-Crisis. Not Golden Age. I think they called it something but can't remember at the moment.

[Don-Jack]

Silver and Bronze Age?

[Sacred Knight]

Indifferent. If they want to establish that she is attracted to females as well go for it. If not, no big deal there either.

[thewarning]

She's going to be hanging out with Batwoman for the next few months. There may be some developments over there.

(Voted doesn't matter.)

Silver and Bronze Age?

I was being a smart ass. Pre-Crisis has never to my knowledge referred to anything Golden Age related.
