The writer of the reborn "Wonder Woman" comics has revealed that the character is TRIBBLE.
Greg Rucka tells Comicosity that since Wonder Woman comes from the fictional all-female island nation of Themyscira, she "has been in love and had relationships with other women."

Not sure I can ever understand the necessity of being historical revisionists when it comes to characters with a 70+ year history. Doesn't that stifle creativity?
Dear Devs: I enjoyed the
Legacy of Romulus expansion much more than the
Delta Rising expansion. .

In-universe, as another comics writer pointed out on Twitter, "They're a society of all-female immortals. What do you think they were doing on that island? A 500-year book club?"
Norway and Yeager dammit... I still want my Typhoon and Jupiter though.
JJ Trek The Kelvin Timeline is just Trek and it's fully canon... get over it. But I still prefer TAR.

You disappoint me. Did you expect worse from him?

amazons were warriors first and foremost , only time they would be with a man was to well get pregnant, then due to traditions and what not if the child was male it would be given to the father, if female raised as an amazon warrior.
Also amazons did not get into romantic relationships, as it was a burden to them on the battlefield , but then again amazons were supposed to be like 10 feet tall and have a single breast as the other would be cut off during puberty to show revrence for thier patron deity.
though ancient thebes had "The sacred band of thebes" they were peerless and one of the most feared warrior clans of ther day, also they were openly homosexual , it was acutally not frowned upon and made them ferocious as they always fought in pairs , and being romantically invololved made them fight even harder for their loved on who fought by thier side.
The media deluge about ficitional characters' choice of sexual partners has made me numb to this topic. The information has the sole purpose of making those who created or are using the character appear edgy, hip, or smart. All they are really trying to do is garner more attention in an effort to squeeze every last penny out of whatever project they are presenting to us.
I'm very likely to see this film when it comes out. Due to the fact my wife is a lifelong comics collector and Wonder Woman is one of her favorite characters. Unless it is going to be a porno, she will not care either.

oh and amazons are androginous (ik spelling is bad) , in mythology they didnt view themselves as men or women only as warriors period, they would only ake a sexual partner as a means of procreation not romance.
They also were forbidden to get romantically involved with anyone , as it was a burden to them when going into battle having a loved one somewhere would take their mind from the battle and that lapse could cost their lives and the lives of their comrades, and thier deity also forbid it any amazon found in a romance would herself be killed aswell as her partner.
anyways thought id share a few things on this subject
They live on an Island...
Everything they eat, tastes like fish.

Comicbook Amazons are not mythological Amazons. Both have the right to use the name as one is based on the other. In the old Norse religion, Loki is Odin's brother, not Thor's. Should Marvel give them different names? Should any adaptation of any media be required to change something because it is an adaptation an not the original?

Would likely be difficult.
"He shall be my finest warrior, this generic man who was forced upon me.
Like a badass I shall make him look, and in the furnace of war I shall forge him.
he shall be of iron will and steely sinew.
In great armour I shall clad him and with the mightiest weapons he shall be armed.
He will be untouched by plague or disease; no sickness shall blight him.
He shall have such tactics, strategies and machines that no foe will best him in battle.
He is my answer to cryptic logic, he is the Defender of my Romulan Crew.
He is Tovan Khev... and he shall know no fear."

Example: Captain Jack Harkness.
In Empty Child, he was shown as flirting with men and women. In (I forget the episode name) he flirted with robots. In another episode (when he was reunited with the Doctor (as the 10th Doctor)) he flirted with a humanoid/insectoid alien... In short, he flirted with everyone and anything. In Miracle Day, he was strictly depicted as being g.ay...
Barrowman once said in interview that a difference between him and Jack was "I'm [Barrowman] g.ay, he[Jack]'s not..."
A massively popular and much-loved character, was retconned away from one of the very qualities which made him lovable!
Same with making KT Sulu g.ay (against George Takei's request) If they had to incoude a reference to homosexuality because it was plot-relevant, rather than just a tired attempt 'to be hip', I'd much rather they had created a new character than pull that trick on an established one.
IMHO, there's a difference between 'revealing new information about a character', such as Worf having accidentally killed another boy when playing soccer, than 'revealing 'new' information about a character' such as making KT Sulu g.ay and in a relationship no one had ever heard of before.
There's a certain level of respect and obligation when working with someone else's characters, which frankly, they failed to do with KT Sulu...
And to bring it back on topic, yes, it makes absolutely perfect sense that Wonder Woman has had same-sex encounters... The point, or rather non-point the writers should be making, should be "And?? So what??" and down-playing it, not being "We made Wonder Woman G.ay!" to draw attention to another DC future-flop which has 'trying too hard' written all over it (like every other POS movie they've put out since Man of Steel...) All the time hacks can't use g.ay characters without needlessly drawing attention to that as an advertising point, there never will be mainstream acceptance of g.ay people or g.ay rights, because it will atill be being treated as different, and needing differential status, than simply being a 'so what?' notion...
Why does everyone go nuts about KT Sulu? It was barely noticeable! If you happened to blink once during that scene, you'd have missed it! It's not like it was right in our faces! I thought they handled it in a very respectful way by making it a very simple scene without making a big deal out of it. The only reason people are making a big deal out of it is because Paramount made a big deal out of it before the film launched.

It's not a retcon if there was no con to be reted. Sulu never had a sexuality onscreen. Mirror Sulu notwithstanding.

It's not even a retcon. I've said this before, it is possible to be attracted to both genders. Just because Sulu was attracted to females in TOS doesn't mean he wasn't also attracted to males.
Anyway, to put this back on-topic: as far as I'm concerned, changing a character's sexuality isn't that big a deal (assuming it's not a case of completely retconning their previous sexuality) provided the storytelling is of good quality. And I feel the need to point out that in-universe there is no reason why Wonder Woman couldn't have an attraction to woman as well as men.
Anytime any writer changes anything about a character, it gets blown way out of proportion. Remember when they had the audacity to divorce Peter Parker and Mary Jane Watson? And then how they dared to give Peter a new love interest? Except it didn't actually turn out that bad, but because it was different, it was hated on.

When George Takei asked them not to do it, they should have respected his request, not just done it anyway. They could have had any new token/unknown character (Trek uses them pretty much every episode) fill the role of 'g.ay husband', rather than unnecessarily tweaking an existing character. Especially when the original actor asked them not to do it. They said they were honoring Takei. Takei said he didn't want to be honored like that. They should have had the humility to expect that, not the hubris to just do it anyway...
They shouldn't have TweetLeaked it to try and generate hype, because all it did, was kick the hornet's nest.
I say every statement about "real amazons" is fantasy
