>>8782818>What made them change like that?This fucker right here, Fredric Wertham and HIV/AIDS.
In his book Seduction of the Innocent, he claimed shit like , "The masculine comic type of story may stimulate children to homosexual fantasies, of the nature of which they may be unconscious" fucker was not only closet gay but most of his work was debunked years later where most of his work was seen as the grifting it was such as pushing gay couples to claim they roll played as Batman and Robin when the reality was more likley things such as Tarzan and Jane, Wonder Woman and Steve Trevor, and other straight couples, showing that the complexity of homosexuality had something more to do than just the genitals itself. Sadly his influence was already impacted and his work was a huge deal when the 1980's HIV/AIDS pandemic roared in and gay culture being the ground zero of the outbreak made homosexuality go from an awkward taboo to being seen as leprosy, and suddenly boomer parents were terrified of their kids going homo because it be seen as another filthy AIDS carrier. Thus 40 years later culture is still poisoned with such irrational stupidities.
