Is Power Girl Corrupting Our Youth?
Concerned Parents Decry Busty Superheroine
Ever since the sudden appearance of the buxom blonde superhero known as "Power Girl" several weeks ago, public interest in this new metahuman vigilante has spiked, setting Twitter and the blogosphere buzzing about her nightly activities, as well as her rumored romantic ties to Superman.
However, some are more concerned with her choice of attire, and the effect that it is having on Metropolis' and Gotham's youth. The media watchdog group known as MARB, or Mothers Against Rogue Breasts, are criticizing what they see as her gratuitously scanty costume, including the cleavage window that is quickly becoming iconic of the mysterious metahuman.
The public reaction to our latest hero can be found in schools, to the chagrin of parents. On Monday, a 17-year-old girl was suspended from Metropolis' deeply religious Holy Family Academy for joining the Facebook group "Power Girl's boobs turned me lesbian." One local Gotham teen, who only identified as A. Dawes, echoed general male sentiment with the quote, "Dude, who cares? She's totally hot."
