I  hope I managed to do this right.  For Gods’ sake, I just figured out how to do this on LJ.  This image cracks me up.  The poor little Batman fleeing with a look of terror on his face, while obviously aroused.  I mean, nice package little cartoon dude.  What do you guys think?

Say that three times fast. Anyway, I essentially wanted to address two quick points.  1.  Rachel pointed out that my list could discriminate against some folks I don’t wish to discriminate against, so here is the updated version:                     1.  Do you identify as Female?
