Women in Refrigerators

Women in Refrigerators (or WiR) is a website created in 1999〔Simone, Gail (March 1999). ("Women in Refrigerators" ). LBY3. Retrieved August 24, 2013.〕 by a group of comic book fans, and more broadly a common comic book trope, from which the website took its name. The website features a list of female comic book characters who have been injured, killed, or depowered as a plot device within various superhero comic books, and seeks to analyze why these plot devices are used disproportionately on female characters.
==History==

The term "Women in Refrigerators" was coined by writer Gail Simone as a name for the website in early 1999 during online discussions about comic books with friends. It refers to an incident in ''Green Lantern'' #54 (1994), written by Ron Marz, in which Kyle Rayner, the title hero, comes home to his apartment to find that his girlfriend, Alexandra DeWitt, had been killed by the villain Major Force and stuffed into a refrigerator.〔Condon, Michael (October 2002). ("The Fanzig Challenge" ). Fanzing. Retrieved January 11, 2006.〕〔Prowse-Gany, Brian (August 12, 2015). ("Rise of the Female Superhero" ). Yahoo! News.〕 Simone and her colleagues then developed a list of fictional female characters who had been "killed, maimed or depowered", in particular in ways that treated the female character as merely a device to move a male character's story arc forward, rather than as a fully developed character in her own right.〔〔Simone, Gail (March 1999). ("The List" ). lb3.com. Retrieved August 24, 2013.〕 The list was then circulated via the Internet over Usenet, Bulletin Board System, e-mail and electronic mailing lists. Simone also e-mailed many comic book creators directly for their responses to the list.
The list is considered "infamous" in certain comic book fan circles. Respondents often found different meanings to the list itself, though Simone maintained that her simple point had always been: "If you demolish most of the characters girls like, then girls won't read comics. That's it!"〔Simone, Gail (March 28, 1999). ("Email as of 4/28/99" ). LBY3. Retrieved January 11, 2006.〕
