75 years after the first issue of Wonder Woman's self titled comic book was published, she's finally getting her own big screen debut. The world is clamoring for the Amazonian Princess, Diana, and reviews suggest the film is everything we've been waiting for.

Wonder Woman has gone through many cosmetic and philosophical changes throughout her impressive run in comics and television. One more notable change has been her weaponry. When Wonder Woman was first envisioned, her creator, William Moulton Marston, dreamed of a superhero who fought villains not with guns and swords or other masculine implements, but instead with love. With the help of his wife Elizabeth Holloway Marston and their live-in partner Olive Byrne, Diana Prince, demure army nurse by day and Amazonian protector by night, was born.

A psychologist and inventor by trade, Marston imbued Wonder Woman with his own passions, and the vivacity of his female partners. In her first appearances, Wonder Woman is armed only with her Herculean strength, a pair of bullet-deflecting bracelets that were a reminder of her birthright, bestowed by the goddess Aphrodite, and a Magic Lasso that compelled anyone bound in it to bend to Diana's will. If you think that a magic lasso that makes people submit to you sounds sexual in nature, you would be absolutely correct.
