Probably not. It's one of the few things I appreciate about "the boys" is exploring this dynamic.
Men and woman are different, anon. Trophy wives are a thing but you've probably never heard of a trophy husband. Part of it is women wanting men that are stronger/richer/influential than them, and part of it is men needing to feel useful.
You bring up good points I was also going to touch on. The thing is, you CAN see "trophy husbands" in fact you see them all the time of you just go out and look around at couples. The reason a lot of people DON'T see them is the phenomenon of unattractive women being invisible.
So from much observation I can tell you that the way to give supergirl a realistic nonpowered boyfriend would be to make Kara fat and the boyfriend black.
>Trophy wives are a thing but you've probably never heard of a trophy husband.
You fricking stupid or are you just pulling shit out of your ass? Trophy husbands are 100% a thing.
There's enough people in the world for anything to strictly exist, but that hardly makes it a thing. To put a point on it: name five living trophy husbands. There are approximately 600k living people notable enough to have a wiki page so if it's a thing this should be plenty easy enough.
What kind of creepy stalker thing is that?? >"Name 5 trophy husbands".
How the hell would I possibly know 5 trophy husbands or wives. Like the hell is wrong with you?
He never said they didn't exist, he just implied they were incredibly rare. There may be a woman willing to be with (You), but you'd be hard pressed to find her. Lmao
I'm just not fond of convoluted comic crap like the Legion-Supergirl's appeal is being a superpowered girl in a world where that's not normal being with the Legion makes her less special. And the comic version of Braniac is convoluted and full of ugly designs, I'm not fond of the green skin human look at all.

That's how unmemorable Braniac 5 and the Legion in general is to me that the only reason I even typed 8 is because I initially wrote "Braniac 13" then google searched "supergirl brainiac" in y google search bar and "8" was the first result.
And it isn't for lack of trying, I've attempted to get into multiple Legion eras and stories and it's all the dregs of comic book melodrama to me. comic shop junkie fair.
>Going on holiday together to foreign destinations, Kara wants to see her adopted planet >She says she'll save you first if the plane goes down, she half expects it will >She likes going to sunny destinations and has an upbeat attitude wherever you go >She learns about sunscreen and the negative health effects of too much sunlight on humans >Kara insists on on covering you in suntan lotion, you have no choice but to accept
I'm just imagining you sitting on the ground with your eyes closed waiting for her to rub a little sun screen on you only to hear her super speed/flight go away and come back. You open your eyes and see she's holding like 100 giant bottles over her head. She used the Justice League credit card and bought every bottle at the gift store.
My retort to this was that she has no personal finances, but then I read your entire post. Until she integrates into Earth society and gets a job (fake identity courtesy of Bruce Wayne), she'd be financially dependent on Clark or her bf, and also depend on them for housing.
Like does the Justice League offer pay/housing? Like in Kara's situation she most likely gets money from Clark and we know she does live with the Kent's in a lot of continuities but what about other heroes?
The Justice League probably offers a stipend or something to help heroes make ends meet And for Batman to use as leverage in case someone gets out of line.
In fiction, the plot is whatever you want it to be. IRL? No, you would learn quickly why the X Men universe has Mutant Control Squads, or whatever they are called. All the super people stories make the characters way more moral than they would be, to not get kicked off the news stands or tv. How would a normal even touch a Kryptonian without risking serious harm? Plot armor, in ficton. Devestation in real life.
However, sticking with the fiction themes, Kara probably would have a man in her life simply because she is gorgeous. She and many a super heroine would also probably have at least three or more children. That doesn't sell product in marketed fiction land. Keeping her lonely so all the lonely men dream about being with her, does. So does rewriting the rules for Kryptonians on the fly. One second they are invulnerable to everything. The next second they can gently cradle and carry regular people out of dangerous situations and their bodies are squeezably soft. One second, metal bends when it touches her. The next second, she can shave smooth with normal metal blades. Her hair is immune to hostile metal but not friendly metal? What? Oh, right. Let's not let the facts get in the way of a good story. But keeping with the romance theme, Kara seems like she would be a real sweetheart. Always trying to make her man happy and go places with him. Not wanting to be alone from him for a minute. Not the kind of girl who would even dream of getting into a deadly fight, unless to make sure her man stays her man. Very eager and proud to make a family with her husband. That kind of plot usually doesn't sell too well though so she's Gorgeous Action Girl, instead.
I still say kryptonian flesh should be like a non-newtonian fluid, being perfectly pliant and supple, only hardening in response and scale to the force exerted upon it. Mostly so one could make love with a kryptonian while they're still bulletproof.
>Anon and Kara go to spend a weekend at the Kent farm >Kara gets both hers and your chores done in just a few seconds >Frees up all your time to hide in the barn and makeout instead >Eventually head back >In the meanwhile Clark showed up, having decided to spend the weekend at the farm too >Ma calls everyone to dinner >Once there's a lull in the conversation, Clark shoots you a knowing smirk and a little tip of his glass >You can't understand what he means with that... >...Until you remember that X-ray vision and super hearing are two of his superpowers
So, since she grew up in her own culture, how would alien dating customs differ from human ones, and what would Kara expect from a potential mate that might not be obvious for a normal guy?
Very briefly they sort of had her as more innocent and naive, in like 2008-2011 when the "loose Supergirl" thing lead to some backlash. Not entirely the 03 Starfire speech impediment but she did have some awkward grasps of human culture and was more sweet and innocent.
This thread is really making me itch to do my "geeky college boy and his superhero GF" comic idea I've had since middle school.
I wonder if there's any Public Domain heroine that would work as a good stand-in. Mary Marvel may or may not be public domain if you avoid using her name on the title.

laying on your stomach because your back got burned. so you rub aloe vera to cool the burn. Also too much sun tends to make you sleepy I'm kind of brown but I still get burned
So Kara's super villain persona finally reveals itself.

yooo i dunno where tf to ask this but this is a female related thread so i'll just ask it here. is red sonja any good? my local comic book store has a few graphic novels (no idea wtf that means i just know its in a book form) on sale and the covers look really cool and sexy. is it worth a purchase? its going for about $10 a graphic novel which is cheap in my country.

As good an anyone could be fore a non-super. Her super-ness doesn't really factor in.
>a reasonable first post
kudos
Why not?
Only if he's black?
Well she is a girl from the MidWest.
Why would you want to be the boyfriend of a Supergirl when you can be the boyfriend of a Superman?
Is Jon still dating the boy with the pink kryptonite hair, or has he found someone better?
Because the story was crap.
Remembering how quick DC ruined Jon always makes me sad.
Remembering that they just keep doubling down on it makes me depressed.
I don’t see why not. If Clark can fall in love with a regular woman, then so can Kara with a regular man.
Probably not. It's one of the few things I appreciate about "the boys" is exploring this dynamic.

She's fictional anon. You can just make shit up and make it true.
>You can just make shit up and make it true.
Terry was a good boyfriend, husband, and father up till Byrne got a hold of him.
Does Supergirl have a super-sensitive clitoris? Does that make it dangerous to have sex with her?
Just take it in the ass like Superman did.
>that sad porn comic
just take a super potion whenever you frick
Wonder how fun it is to date her
If you're Robin, not very
What is better for Supergirl, midriff or no midriff?
Midriff with a tiny skirt.
What went wrong?
That was supposed to be Mary Marvel, but because her mini got delayed they colored her like Kara
no because women don't date inferior status men
If she's literally Supergirl, what else is there for her?
Darkseid lel
>tag: stomach_deformation
The big black darkseid
Brainiac.
Oh. we do. we all do 😛
Supergirl dating a normie would be cute, fricking hate the Braniac 8 ship so much
What's wrong with Brainiac?
they aren't even from the same time. plus, a supergirl should have a normal guy like how superman has lois.
>supergirl should have a normal guy like how superman has lois.
Kara isn't a normal girl like how Clark was a normal boy.
I'm just not fond of convoluted comic crap like the Legion-Supergirl's appeal is being a superpowered girl in a world where that's not normal being with the Legion makes her less special.

Leave
You leave homosexual. Wholesome greentexts are the best.
>cute

The word lost all meaning. Ao I guess it depends on op shit taste.
Kara is with Brainiac 5, 8 is a different Brainiac.
That's how unmemorable Braniac 5 and the Legion in general is to me that the only reason I even typed 8 is because I initially wrote "Braniac 13" then google searched "supergirl brainiac" in y google search bar and "8" was the first result.
And it isn't for lack of trying, I've attempted to get into multiple Legion eras and stories and it's all the dregs of comic book melodrama to me. comic shop junkie fair.
You must hate the fact that her ship with Brainiac 5 is her only really notable ship.
Earth boys can't compete with the BCC.
Brainiac doesn't have a dick. Hence why his son is an unmodified clone of himself.
No a normal person can't date her.
No midriff + diaper.
I wasn't too thrilled about the lack of midriff, but those knees are doing something for me.
HNNNG!!
New 52 costume and the short hair was the best look.
>short hair
>no skirt
>no midriff
it's shit
Your reaction?
Ask her to do it again
Inaccurate because Kara's boobs aren't that big.
They should be. She's been aged up.
No, that's what Power Girl is for, Kara should have comparatively small booba.
What did he not believe? That her breasts are not fake? Because why else would she use her breasts for a demonstration?
She isn't a human woman, so maybe. If she were just a superhuman, id say no.
Best costume comes through. The 70s one was good too

Supergirl's never had sex in canon, right?
Having heroes get with normies is lame. They could never really understand them and it’d only cause problems in the long run.

Kek.
So, since she grew up in her own culture, how would alien dating customs differ from human ones, and what would Kara expect from a potential mate that might not be obvious for a normal guy?
I wonder why they never explored a 2003 Starfire type of characterization for her? Including her way of speaking.
She should definitely have a pronounced accent at least
What kind of accent would Kara have?
Very briefly they sort of had her as more innocent and naive, in like 2008-2011 when the "loose Supergirl" thing lead to some backlash. Not entirely the 03 Starfire speech impediment but she did have some awkward grasps of human culture and was more sweet and innocent.
Kara and Steph actually do have some chemistry together.
I like how Steph suddenly becomes the straight man when faced with a perkier blonde. It's a fun dynamic.
>You will never watch college movies with Kara

Does your store do refunds? Because if so just go buy them and refund them if you don't like em
Depends on which comics. The writing usually isn't very good, but Carlos Gomez is a great artist.
Don't be baited by the sexy comic book cover. Those sexy comic book covers are used to lure in naive fools such as yourself.
He looks so upset at being carried by Supergirl.
