Wonder Woman

Wonder Woman is one of the most important super heroines in the DC Universe, and she is considered as one of their three big characters alongside Superman and Batman.

Since her introduction in the 1940's she has appeared in thousands of comic books and she has also made appearances in film, tv and weekly paper strips among others.

Wonder Woman is one of the best known damsels in distress, and her origin is tied to bondage.

In her first comic books she was constantly bound and kidnapped and her creator William Marston saw her sexuality as a way to explore human psychology and relationships.

Much of her attire including her magic lasso that comples to say the truth and her bracalets are linked to this origin.

Unofrtunately as time has passed by, all this sexual elements from Wonder Woman have been eliminated, however she remains a very important damsel in distress.
