Etta and the lipstick lady are absolutely right. It’s a completely easy thing for Diana to say and do, because she looks literally perfect. Not just perfect, but perfect in a way specifically approved of by this society. Apparently the “beauty of Aphrodite” means “beautiful in the exact way that heterosexual patriarchal man’s world values most”. And even if that wasn’t the case, even if she didn’t have a perfect body and shave her legs and what all, she comes from a society that doesn’t care. Whether it man’s world or her world, she has no sense of social pressure or social consequences that come from not looking like Sports Illustrated model.  So it makes sense for her to ask these questions. It does. It makes sense for her to not get it. And I’m glad that the women she asks get to fire back. But I wish that, instead of being relegated to just a quick joke scene of women being jealous at Diana’s gods-given beauty, the answer would actually be discussed. Because you’ll notice neither Etta nor lipstick lady give her an answer. And I think that’s because the answer is one that would be uncomfortable for (male) audiences: Because of the power structures dictating women’s “acceptable” appearances that were designed by a male-dominated society, and how women are taught to adhere to them from an early age just to get by with a modicum of respect in that society. But, that wouldn’t be funny. It might make audiences balk at Wonder Woman being, horror of horrors, too feminist, or worse, man-hating. It would be too political or too preachy. Better just to have it seem like something silly vain women do to themselves just because we’re frivolous and insecure by nature, dohohoho! Good thing that the (absolutely beautiful with no effort because she was literally created that way) Diana is there to teach them that REAL beauty is natural and/or on the inside! So long as you naturally look like Gal Gadot, anyway.

I’ve touched the darkness that lives in between the light. Seen the worst of this world, and the best. Seen the terrible things men do to each other in the name of hatred, and the lengths they’ll go to for love. Now I know. Only love can save this world. So I stay. I fight, and I give… for the world I know can be. This is my mission, now. Forever.
