I've mentioned before that I love the old 1950s Lois Lane comics because they're gloriously awful with some of the most ridiculous writing and plotting ever - but sometimes I just feel angry on behalf of any girl who read these at the time. Bad enough all the comments about Lois wanting "what every girl wants, a husband, house and babies" but when the titular character gets lines like "any girl would rather have a pretty face than a super brain - if she's really smart!"... *fume*

I am amused that every letters page has someone calling for Lois to get a good spanking, though.

Hee, I'm the opposite - never seen an episode of Lucy but I've seen clips of Desi spanking her. (I don't think The Lucy Show was ever on here, not that that stops connorbeast and me from using "Lucy, you got some 'splainin' to do" as one of our standard greetings)
