OK. So Children’s Place were selling Guardians of the Galaxy t-shirts for boys… and left Gamora out of the ugly-ass t-shirt design because she’s a female character and this “shirt in particular is a boy’s shirt.”
THIS. THIS IS WHY WE CAN’T HAVE NICE THINGS, PEOPLE.

We all know that’s bull because the girls’ shirts are always covered in male characters. Apparently having a female character on merchandise would accidentally give young girls and women the false impression that they matter too. And we can’t have that, now, can we?

COMICS.
As I mentioned at the time, I feel weirdly honoured that this guy – whose tweets tend otherwise to be shrieks of loveless gollumlike fear, rage and WWE – felt I merited a “thank you”.
