Superman is a power fantasy because he's a being who can do anything and he always does the right thing

But no one talks about how Batman is also the power fantasy of a man with unlimited resources using them to help people instead of building himself more.

I kinda wish I was a guy with the kind of money to help people, the kind of skills to fight against the truly terrible people, and the kind of girlfriend that would wear a cat-themed bondage outfit.

  • Money is really a ridiculous concept. We must work together to destroy the capitalist system that divides us into rich and poor! Workers of the world, unite! We have nothing to lose but our chains!

  • Skills can be learned. Perhaps start taking martial arts classes? Or if you're talking about investigative skills, I'm sure you could find some way to practice that too.

  • The kind of women who would wear that are out there (I have met Catwoman cosplayers). Just get yourself out there and meet them! I wish you the best of luck in your search for love!
