Stop stigmatizing sex workers.

Okay, even I'm getting a bit annoyed by PC.

But Andrew Farago's description of what Frank Cho should behave is a portrait of a very cynical person.
-----
Being able to treat a job like a job is cynical? We're discussing artists drawing characters they don't personally like, not asking people to compromise their morals.

Less to do with political correctness and more to do with thinking that people's attitudes toward sex work is hypocritical (especially among people who have ever watched porn), but all this is a separate topic.

Shouldn't fans be more concerned about who's ACTUALLY writing and drawing the superheroes, in the comic books you supposedly love, not the creators who TALK about them?

No, I'm sick and tired of rock star artists, writers and editors shitting on characters. I've never really understood why we continue giving them free passes.* Comics may merely be "a product" for them. But it's not just "a product" for us. Otherwise I wouldn't be "a fan".
*I'll give Frank Cho a pass though. I've never really thought of him as a artist of superheroes. He's more like a cartoonist who ended up drawing comics. Probably quite unwillingly.

Wow, 4 pages and going on this topic!
Isn't there some sort of quote that it is better to have
people talk about you than forget you? So Frank Cho is
probable enjoying that article keeping discussions about
him alive. Before this thread, I can't remember last time
I heard people talking about him.

Thank you. I was so far off when I tried
to Google it, I got nothing that helped.

Oh please. If anyone wants to really see examples of oversensitivity run amok, spend 30 minutes reading Social Justice Warrior blogs on Tumblr.
