I always kind of liked the idea that Superman was blasting people with multiple Grays worth of X-rays, just to see if they're hiding anything

spog posted:'Bugs Bunny Nips The Nips' - guess how racially sensitive it is. Is it.... a lot? Also: Lois Lane could never bear Superman's seed. He'd blow a load like a shotgun blast right through the back of her. Wonder Woman is the only woman strong enough to bear his seed, unless he wore a Kryptonite condom... but that would kill him. (apologies to anyone who hasn't seen Mallrats)

Because it's actually from an old Larry Niven article from 1971. http://www.rawbw.com/~svw/superman.html quote:He's faster than a speeding bullet. He's more powerful than a locomotive. He's able to leap tall buildings at a single bound. Why can't he get a girl?

I wouldn't be surprised if Smith read that article before writing the movie since he's such a loving nerd. And fuckin lol of course it would be Niven who would write it given how creepy sexually it is.

Big Bad Beetleborg posted:Japanese, because of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YKK It has nothing to do with YKK. They didn't invent the zipper, and they were a tiny company at the time. The exact origins are unknown, but it's typically thought it was invented in the Korean war, either when a Koreans head was run over by a truck tire leaving a "zipper" pattern, or when one was shot in the head, the head "opened up like a zipper".

It probably had it's first origins in WWII, but came into regular use during the Korean war (or even Vietnam, since that's seems to be where it was really thrown out left and right)

This applies to all fiction, but Sci-fi especially serves as a cleaning house for whatever two-bit transgressive ideology is rattling around in the author's head. And unlike fantasy or historical fiction, where it's portrayed negatively but "that's just how things were back then," Sci-fi often plays up rampantly unfettered sexuality as a natural perk of erudite and enlightened society. Heinlein is infamous for poo poo like that. Skippy McPants has a new favorite as of 01:06 on Nov 6, 2017 |

That's one of my favorite things about Heinlein; he writes characters that seem like hardcore author tracts given life, but there's so many different ones! And only a couple were actually because of his changing political views. null_pointer posted:Jesus, has sci-fi always been a haven for Dawkins-esque pedophiles? haha yes, a comedic article about sex with Superman definitely means you're a pedophile, yep, any discussion of sex is a sure indication of pedophilia

There's a brief segment where Niven entertains and discards the possibility of the teenage Supergirl carrying a Kryptonian baby, and while he's careful to say that "they're cousins, so of COURSE they can't" he then goes on to consider the idea anyway and discard it because it would be *gasp* scandalous.
