Preferred term

Wonder Woman  

Definition

  • Wonder Woman has been many things to many people: an icon of feminism, televised entertainment, a sex symbol, a fantasy, a threat, and an inspiration. She began as the illustrated embodiment of a doctor's radical theories about the human organism, but became a revolutionary character who paved the way for future representations of superwomen.
