Sometimes a rocket ship is just a rocket ship. athelind April 12 2008, 16:21:39 UTC
I would not have seen that if you hadn't pointed it out to me.

Seriously.

I like old-style pulp art and dynamic, optimistic futurist propaganda. I know, intellectually, that they often contain not-so-subtle Freudian imagery, but I don't see it. I see Woo hoo! Starships! Space flight! The Far Call!

And now I can't unsee it.

Actually, even before I saw Aeto's comment or your edit comment on the main journal, I was considering how thoughtful it was that they'd made form-fitting flight suits for all these women, so much so that one can immediately tell their gender, helmet or no.
