Lordosis

A comment or two on the highly sexualized pose used by most female comic book characters and especially when coupled with the phrase "strong female".

"Our own TNH and I used to have a plot in which the worst offenders of this sort of female costuming/posing would be paraded onto a stage at Comic Con, forced to wear five inch heels, posed in those butt-and-tits-out lordosis poses, and left there for an hour...just to see long they would last, and how many of them could walk afterward.

  1. Yeah I've always wondered about that stance, who actually stands like that and why is it a good thing?
