So, while I’m a computer guy, I don’t do social networking software, including twitter. However, [salon.com](http://salon.com) has an article, [FEMINIST HULK MAKE TWITTER FUN!](http://www.salon.com/life/broadsheet/2010/05/18/feminist_hulk) that amused me enough that I thought I’d pass it along.

IOW, a true MPSIMS. Enjoy!

Aw, it warms my heart that it’s Hulk and not She-Hulk (who is totally a feminist. The other day she was complaining, I think it was in the Red Hulk series, about having to work twice as hard as her cousin and not even getting her\* own\* superhero name).

Bah. She just doesn’t get her own name because she got her powers from the original. I’m sure if his cousin was a boy, he’d be called Mini-Hulk or Hulk II or something similar.

Exactly. Banner had to survive a deadly dose of gamma radiation in a heroic attempt to rescue a helpless child. Ms Walters gets a blood transfusion from him. What he had to get the hardest of ways, she gets handed to her on a plate, and she complains she’s disadvantaged. I agree with **Cat Fight** - she is totally a feminist.
