Reddit reviews The Secret History of Wonder Woman

I'm aware of the story of Wonder Woman's creation and the peculiarities of her creator. I read an entire book about it. I don't see how it's problematic at all these days.

People should read up on the creator of Wonder Woman. There's a new book out about it: http://www.amazon.com/The-Secret-History-Wonder-Woman/dp/0385354045

Basically he took on a mistress, they all lived in the same house. All the kids were his and all the kids just grew up knowing their parents had a weird relationship but it worked.

The wife got to be a working woman (back when this was very un common). The mistress raised the kids. There was a door so he could pass between

One of the kids caught him and his mistress once and they were just told "Daddy's feeling sick. Ms. ___ is making me feel better". And for a 5 year old it worked.

There is an awesome NPR story where they interviewed the author. It's 45 minutes long but well worth the listen: http://www.npr.org/2014/10/27/359078315/the-man-behind-wonder-woman-was-inspired-by-both-suffragists-and-centerfolds
