She-Hulk's Vagina

Peter DavidI am the picture of restraint: I stayed away from the Peter David super-strong vagina thesis for three whole days. Why? It's too easy. It's like shooting dead fish in a barrel. Still, the wait was hard.

For those of you who missed it, Peter David (or Skrull Peter David) posted the following to Newsarama on April 12th:

I think any normal man who would have sex with She-Hulk is courting disaster. I don't care how stiff your stiffy is: She-Hulk's vaginal muscles alone, if she were to orgasm, would be enough to earn you a trip to the E.R. The price of a tumble with She-Hulk being broken bones pales in comparison to the prospect of a broken boner because, yes kids, it can break, and not all the king's horses, men or Viagra will put Humpty back together again. Lambskin Trojans? Forget that. Tony Stark must have used an amored condom. The Invinicible Iron Man Thing.

Well. Yeah. My wait was justified by this LiveJournal post by Schmevil, wherein Schmevil writes:

So Dan Slott writes stories about the evils of promiscuity, and PAD thinks that She-Hulk is physicially incapable of having sex with a 'normal man' and that her 'bed hopping' is a consequence of her not being able to find a man who can withstand her mighty vaginal muscles. That's 31 flavours of fail right there, folks, particularly considering that Jen and She-Hulk are both sexually active, and both canonically enjoy sex.

To be very fair, PAD is clearly channeling the old Larry Niven essay, "Man of Steel, Women of Kleenex". To be equally fair, Schmevil does score some significant points.


More She-Hulk Vagina

Wow! Stupid on so many levels. It's pretty ridiculous to apply 'real world' physics to superhero stories in most cases anyway, but applying it to sex is just beyond inappropriate. Especially when you throw a little vagina dentata imagery into the mix ("Be careful, fanboys, she might just bite it right off!").

That said, PAD clearly has She-Hulk vagina on the brain at the moment, as evidenced by this preview of issue #30:

If you ARE going to have sex with She-Hulk, you could at least use one of those vibrating dildoes or something. I mean, if you wanted to stay out of the hospital, that would be a smart move.
