just so you know, /you/ didn't technically say anything about neckbeards but in the most recent Wonder Woman post you reblogged it was already captioned with "wonder woman knew what was up with whiny nerdboys and neckbeards a while ago" and it makes sense

Didn’t even read it. My mistake.

They're gaslighting anons, particularly the one claiming "our side."

Ah. Okay.

Well, that’s kinda funny, I guess. :)

Okay. About "Neckbeards."

Suddenly I was getting all these DMs about calling people “Neckbeards,” which is a phrase I have never used in my life. I couldn’t figure it out.

So I went back, and sure enough, a panel of a Wonder Woman comic I wrote, which I retweeted FOR THE PANEL, was retweeted by someone else entirely first, in a caption I didn’t read. If you go look, you will see I am not the tumblr who posted about “neckbeards.”

First, I don’t make fun of people for their appearance, and second, I am not even positive what a “neckbeard” is.

I should have read the comment before retweeting, but the people upset maybe could have read to see who actually MADE the comment. As you can see, it wasn’t me.

Gail that's body shaming. Seriously calling people neckbeards? You're better than that

What the fuck is going on here? Who did I call a neckbeard? I have never used that phrase in my entire life.

I really wish we could retire 'neckbeard'. Making fun of someone's appearance makes our side look hypocritical.

What neckbeard?

What am I missing? I don’t believe I have ever used that term in my life.

Gail I'm really disappointed right now. You've always been above cheap potshots, and that was really rude. Insulting men isn't feminism, one of the reasons this makes me sad is because as a woman I've idolized you for years. You always made my dream of bei

I haven’t got a clue what you are talking about, frankly.

If you could write a spinoff starring secondary characters from any title you've written before, whom would you choose? Personally, I could read at least a dozen issues about Dinah, Shiva, and Cheshire trying not to kill each other...

I really wanted to do a baby Birds of Prey with Black Alice, Bumblebee and Misfit.

Wonder Woman asks good questions.

Is one of the new projects Medusa for Marvel?? People keep mentioned red hair... And she has a whole big bunch!

I wish. I love her!
