Subject: Parents told their daughter’s Wonder Woman lunchbox is too violent for school
Written By: Philip Eno on 08/27/15 at 8:00 am
She may be the world’s premier cartoon heroine, but according to one school, Wonder Woman and her Golden Lasso of Truth are too are absolutely not suitable lunchbox fodder.
According to Redditor twines18, who posted a copy of the letter and offending lunchbox on Imgur, the lunchbox contravened the schools dress code which states children aren’t allowed to bring ‘violent images’ into the building.

So basically, her school (or pretty much any modern school nowadays), believe that superheroes are really violent and they should just have lunchboxes with friendly characters? I don't know if that's pathetic or they think that some kids would be terrified with superheroes nowadays. I don't like superheroes, but I don't think they're scary (since the school probably thinks they're scary nowadays). They're just lame pieces of crap who just fight super villains and save the whole goddamn world from evil, with lame CGI effects.

Like you say, superheroes are not violent, they save the world from evil doers.

The mainstream media being so quick out there with a press of a button, has caused society to be more sensitive towards every little thing.

I wouldn't say the entire mainstream freaks out over violent things. That's basically today's schools, who think that anything that doesn't have any educational purposes in it, or has appropriate behavior shouldn't be allowed at schools.

Hell yeah, it's thought control. They basically want everything to be educational and informative, especially kids' interests on backpacks and/or lunch boxes.

It really doesn't look that violent. It's just Wonder Woman being awesome. How is that violent to the school board?

I think it is because Wonder Woman is a STRONG badass woman and we can't have little girls aspiring to be a strong badass woman. They need to aspire to be like Suzy Homemaker and to be subordinate to males.
