Remember When We Said Man of Steel‘s Jimmy Olsen Might Be a Woman? We Have New Info On That.

by Rebecca Pahle | 12:30 pm, May 16th, 2013

Earlier this year speculation arose that Man of Steel might be genderswapping Jimmy Olsen. There’s no Jimmy in the movie, the theory goes, but there is a Jenny Olsen, and she’s seen in the trailer running away from an explosion with Perry White, which would seem to suggest that she has something to do with the Daily Planet. After that initial rush of “OMG they might genderswap Jimmy Olsen, that would be so cool!,” the whole thing kind of died down.

Until now. If this new detail we’ve seen is true, you can count that rumor as…

by Jill Pantozzi | 4:17 pm, February 1st, 2013

We previously told you about the campaign launched by Allana Maiden asking Victoria’s Secret to make “survivor bras” to “help breast cancer survivors feel beautiful.” Maiden is close to the concerns of those with breast cancer, her mother Debbie Barrett is 21 years cancer free, and hoped a Change.org petition would help urge the company to participate. Yesterday, Allana and her mother delivered the petition to the company’s office in New York City and got really positive responses.

Male German Soldiers Have Started Growing Breasts, Turning Into Real-Life Amazons (Kinda)

by Rebecca Pahle | 2:00 pm, January 23rd, 2013

It’s said that the Amazons would cut or burn off their right breasts so that they could throw their javelins without pesky boobery getting in the way. So I feel completely comfortable in calling what’s happening with Germany’s Wachbataillon a “reverse Amazon.” Instead of lady soldiers losing a breast, these male soldiers are gaining one.

Yep. Dozens of German soldiers have started growing a left boob.

First Female-Specific Body Armor Ships Out To Afghanistan

by Jill Pantozzi | 4:16 pm, December 3rd, 2012

It’s safe to say, having body armor that doesn’t fit correctly is almost no armor at all. That’s why we’ve been following the development of body armor for women in the armed forces so closely. Previously, the armor was in a prototype stage and being worn by the 101st Airborne Division out of Fort Campbell, Kentucky. It turns out, the women of the 1st Armor Brigade Combat Team, Third Infantry Division are being deployed to Afghanistan soon and when they do, they’ll be wearing armor that fits.

Woman Walks Marathon While Watching a Lord of the Rings Marathon

by Jill Pantozzi | 4:00 pm, November 22nd, 2012

This may be the greatest thing I’ve ever heard of. This woman, who goes by preservetheverve online, decided to walk/run a marathon while watching all three of Peter Jackson’s The Lord of the Rings. Here’s what she had to say, “In honor of The Hobbit coming out in December, I decided to have an unexpected journey of my own. 26.2 miles in 9 hours and 18 minutes, a movie marathon marathon.” Before you put on your nerd monocle and fault her for not watching the extended editions, first of all, think about how long that would be, second of all, read this: “When we watch our family LOTR marathon for real we will watch all three extended edition blurays on widescreen with hobbit themed food.” Booya.

So what’s next? “Now I just have to figure out how to do a Triwizard Triathlon,” she wrote. I can see this catching on. Before you try it yourself though, read the comments on her post to hear the entire experience.

Read on to find out why.
