Stamp: Comic Book Nerdess

Description

"Wait, you read comics, but you're a girl? How do you know so much about comics, despite being a girl? You know you're the only girl I know that reads comics as much as I do..."

Yeah, yeah, I get that a lot actually. Yes, female comic book readers do exist. We're an elusive kind of breed, almost a mythical one. There are far more girl gamers in the world than there are currently female comic readers. We're as rare as unicorns, as rare fully-clothed comic book superheroines. While the leading demographic for comic readers are, of course, men at 80%, women fill the remaining 20% and shrinking each week.

Today, we live in an era where comic books are marketed to males 18-34 — to hell with children and women readers — and its target demographic that they've been trying to sell to for the last decade with diminishing success. Despite the fact that comics do not lift a finger to market to females, despite the fact that comics publish artwork of female characters that regularly crosses the line from cheesecake to embarrassing, and despite the fact that female characters are often treated like crap in comparison to male characters and that being treated like crap is still better than some of the other things that have been done to them, comic books still has many, many loyal female customers.

So if you're a comic book nerdess, like I am, share it with the entire world and show that we truly do exist!
