I'm with you.  I can't read anything that's so laden with HAES bullshit.  Tess is NOT a goddamned "superhero".  The only thing super about her is her size, girth and weight.  Off topic...why does she always have one or both of her hands bent at that weird, completely unnatural angle? What is up with that?  I was trying that myself and thinking, when in hell would I ever, ever hold my hand at that angle??  Never, that's when.  Sorry about the mini rant....for some reason, that just really rubs me the wrong way.  Maybe it's because there is absolutely nothing natural about this particular creature.
