Snark seems like an unnecessary way to preface the page


[[caption-width-right:350:Normal female friend group bonding activity!]]



There's a ''lot'' of snark and wild theories about ComicBook/WonderWoman and the romantic life of a woman from an all-female society and a lot of people assume she's gay or bi.

** Hints, nothing. In issue 38, one of the Amazons states directly that "[some] have sworn themselves to Artemis, the virgin hunter, and Athena, the chaste warrior. Others choose [[UnusualEuphemism the way of]] [[ADateWithRosiePalms Narcissus]][[note]]Narcissus is a young man from Myth/ClassicalMythology who fell in love with his own reflected image[[/note]]. But most of us find satisfaction in each other. Three thousand years can be a long time, Reverend."

** During Messner-Loebs run on the book when Hippolyta and Philippus go over the plans for the last part of ComicBook/TheContest the setting is quite intimate, their conversation and posture makes them come off as flirting and Philippus is essentially wearing lingerie when she's never been seen outside of full concealing armor before.



* Creator/PeterDavid hinted at it once in a ''Justice League Task Force'' story, and Gail Simone has tossed out a few hints of her own in her run.

* To clarify: It's {{canon}}ical that the majority of the Amazons are either lesbian or bisexual, with several Amazons canonically having relationships with one another (including Queen Hippolyta/General Phillipus). Wonder Woman has not been confirmed as lesbian/bi in the comics...but WW writer Gail Simone has directly stated that as far as she's concerned Wonder Woman is bi, so WordOfGod has confirmed it, even if DC haven't got the guts to actually allow it to be addressed in the comics.

* Creator/GeorgePerez had moments in his run, before Themyscira could be made more explicitly gay. Hippolyta was very touchy-feely with her general Philippus, and in one panel she was shown sleeping in a bed with another woman, though it's so far away it was not immediately obvious.
