What I’m saying is that superhero comics are not for girls, because they are sexist.
Read this. It's a great, well thought-out piece of meta about sexism in comics - although it's also a wistful declaration of love for a thing that doesn't love you back.
Also, I recently saw The Bournce Legacy and thought that Aaron Cross/Eric Byer would make a great ship, which made me look for fic, which then led me to Bourne/Avengers crossovers (because of reasons), which finally led me to Clint-fic.
( So, basically, this is just a bunch of fics about Jeremy Renner being awesome. )
