Fluff: Are these Disney t-shirts sexist?

1. Apparently Disney don’t think girls can be heroes.

Marvel comics, which is Disney-owned and publishes The Avengers series, has released a line of T-shirts in anticipation of the upcoming sequel to the extremely popular film. The T-shirts, which are being sold on the Disney website, include a blue version for boys that says: “Be A Hero”. Cute.

The female T-shirts though, come in red and pink and have the slogans that read “I need a hero” and “I only kiss heros”.

Customers let rip on the company’s Facebook page, and a petition started by women’s advocacy group Miss Representation on Change.org has garnered 7000 signatures.

What d’ya reckon?

The boy version is on the left. REALLY Disney?

3. Bradley Cooper lives with his mummy.

But it’s not what you think. Cooper, 38, recently admitted to his current living arrangements, and if possible, it has only made him more desireble.

His father died from cancer 2 years ago, and to cope with their mutual grief, the mother and son shacked up together and haven’t looked back.

Cooper has taken his mother as his date to several red-carpet events in the past, and has been very open about their close relationship. But this is the first time he’s admitted they actually live together. He was quoted in this month’s Details magazine:

“…don’t get me wrong. It’s not without complications. It’s not like I live in a compound and she’s in the guesthouse. No. She’s in the next room. But here’s the thing: She’s a cool chick. We can hang, and she can roll with the punches. If hat wasn’t the case, there’s no way.”

The ads, which are for New York pro-gay bridal store Stone Fox Bridal, show Kirke modelling a number of gowns on her own, along with one shot of her kissing another bride. The store’s website says: “You guys did the hard part. You fell in love. Let us do the rest, and help you walk down the aisle in style.”

Kirke, 27, has been married to lawyer Michael Mosberg for almost 4 years. They also have two children together.
