Even though Dr. Who, the Ocean’s cast, and Ghostbusters have all been rebooted with women at the center (and Wonder Woman was, arguably, one of the best superhero movies to come out in recent memory), male comic book nerds continue to flip out about gender-flipped heroes (and villains).
Case in point: writer Geraldine DeRuite jokingly suggested reasons why the Joker should be re-cast in the new Batman to be a woman.
Her reasons were pretty hilariously on point, too…unless you’re a man with fragile feelings and stuff.
Because guys. They cannot handle it.

Moral? Be careful what funny and insightful thoughts you decide to put out there on Twitter.
The misogynists are waiting….
