I’m going to be a bit of an asshole here. With the amount of effort that she obviously put to attain that level of physical preparation (which is impressive for my couch potato standards), I’m a bit miffed that the costume itself is a bit meh. Still, she is a better wonder woman in that than I’ll ever be even with the original costume and a team to set me up!
Yeah, she might need someone to work on a costume for her. As I understand it (as just an instagram follower) cosplay isn’t something she does a ton of. It seems like mostly cool Halloween costumes.
There’s a couple cool youtube videos of bodybuilder, James Hollingshead, cosplaying as Kratos at comicon. He gets professionally done up and it looks like a lot of fun (https://youtu.be/lrGU77uf4Ic)
It’d be a lot of fun to see Jessica professionally done up as an action heroine at a comicon. She could be a real life she-hulk or wonder woman.
Congrats on her for the work and thats a really good wonderwoman.
Omg @RespectMyAuthoriteh@lemmy.world so glad you’re here!
The way Wonder woman in the movies should have been. A jacked up Amazon who has trained to fight her whole life, not skinny, supermodel, 0oz of muscle gal Gadot.
Yeah but where are you gonna find actresses that also do body building.
Or willing to get roided up.
There was Natalie Portman in thor love and thunder. But yes, I think they would incur in the wrath of guys with fragile masculinity that can’t see a woman with more muscles than them
We had one, but she started saying some things about how conservatives were the real victims of the holocaust…
Obviously, she’s attractive. I’ll let someone else posts tired Futurama memes.
But I’m glad more women are getting into weightlifting and no longer believe the myth about it making you look masculine.
There was (and still is) a taboo around it, but I think it would do a world of good to a lot of women. Not only does it make you look more attractive, but feeling stronger can be very empowering, and I suspect help you feel safer and more confident.
Personally, I’ve found it’s great for keeping weight off and tackling mental health issues too. My life may not always go as planned, but I keep lifting, and I keep making (admittedly) slow progress. And when it comes time to lift the washing machine, I no longer have issues.
no longer believe the myth about it making you look masculine.
It depends on how far you go with it.
It’s definitely possible to make you look masculine. But the average woman lifting weights is probably never going to reach that point. It’ll just enhance their physique.
The women’s 76 kg IPF worlds competition was insane this year. You should watch it. And join me in !powerlifting@lemmy.ml
