I may be trying to rationalize things, but I am by no means rational. This story is telling me to feel a certain way about Barbara when I don't really care. I don't feel sorry for her being able to walk again when other people can't. It's life. Same can go people who cannot be a super hero. Or for those who don't have friends or family. It's a sad part of life, but it's not something that should be on your mind like this. Geez, if she cares that much about folks who are paralyzed, why doesn't she become a doctor and help them to walk again? It's about as believable as going from a street fighting super hero to a pro-computer hacker.
Founded by girl geeks and members of the slash fandom, scans_daily strives to provide an atmosphere which is LGBTQ-friendly, anti-racist, anti-ableist, woman-friendly and otherwise discrimination and harassment free.
Bottom line: If slash, feminism or anti-oppressive practice makes you react negatively, scans_daily is probably not for you.
