Harley Quinn is a woman who dropped a fight when she figured out Black Canary was pregnant and sat and talked with her and visited her in the hospital with baby gifts.

She is a woman with a doctorate degree who can break into Arkham with only a handful of objects, something no other Batman villain can do.

She’s a woman who knows she’s been abused and is working past it.

She’s a woman who called Dr Fate on his shit because “some of us went to school and earned that title”.

Doctor Harleen Quinzel is a complex character who is probably going to be reduced to Shooting Sex Toy in Suicide Squad and nothing makes me more disappointed.

This is my fascination with Harley – she’s become a very complex character who reflects most situations a woman can/will have experienced, but the common view of her is invariably hyper sexualised.
