The Wasp's Suit in ANT-MAN AND THE WASP Draws Up Controversy Due to Sexual Imagery
We all know some fans can be a little crazy and they like to stir up ridiculous controversy when they can. Last week, Marvel gave us a new photo from Ant-Man and the Wasp showing off Paul Rudd as Scott Lang and Evangeline Lilly as Hope Van Dyne all suited up in their cool looking costumes.
Well, some fans on Twitter are calling it out due to some sexual imagery that they feel was deliberately added to The Wasp's suit's design. They are pointing out the breastplate and the stomach armor are testicles and a penis pointing at her crotch. Yeah, if you have a dirty mind then it's not hard to see, especially if it's pointed out to you. But, the fact that they are saying this was done deliberately by Marvel and their team of artists is ridiculous.
Some people just like to stir the pot with silly made-up controversy like this. The crazy thing is, once you see it... that's all some people might be able to see from here on out!
I find it REALLY hard to believe that not a single person noticed the design on the front of Wasp’s suit looked like a penis pointing right between her legs... 😒 pic.twitter.com/ojwRm7RXSH

No one brought this up when the suit was first revealed in Ant-Man! It has a similar design:
Also, no one brought it up five or six months ago when this photo was released:
Then there are fans complaining about the color and how there's not enough in it in the design. One fan on Reddit even went ahead and redesigned the suit with a splash of gold to brighten it up. It actually looks pretty cool and I like what they did with it.
It's not like Marvel is going to go back and redesign the costume for Ant-Man and the Wasp, but maybe we'll see a redesign in the next Marvel film that she pops up in.
Regardless of the color, do you think Marvel deliberately made sure The Wasp had a big penis running down the front of it?!
