Harley Quinn is DC’s adult-themed animated show in which the characters can get away with more than usual. They can use foul language and do stuff that is not very kid-friendly. However, the show still has many limitations, especially when it comes to what Batman can do. It was highlighted by the co-showrunner Justin Halpern.

 

DC denying the scene of Batman and Catwoman 

In an interview, Halpern revealed that some freedoms were offered, and some were not during the filming of Harley Quinn. He said, “It’s incredibly gratifying and free to be using characters that are considered villains because you just have so much more leeway.” He also explained, “A perfect example of that is in this third season of Harley, we had a moment where Batman was going down on Catwoman, and DC was like, ‘You can’t do that. You absolutely cannot do that.'”

 

When DC mentioned that “‘Heroes don’t do that,’ Halpern asked, ‘Are you saying heroes are just selfish lovers?’ To which DC replied, ‘No, it’s that we sell consumer toys for heroes. It’s hard to sell a toy if Batman is also going down on someone.'”

 

As the episode of Harley Quinn has not aired yet, we cannot be sure whether you will see the scene. But, likely, you will not see Batman giving pleasure to Catwoman.

The real controversy here is that Batman is not allowed to be seen giving pleasure to a woman on Harley Quinn show. Many other heroes, including Vision, Captain America, and Doctor Strange, would have done it,

DC is also showing double standards when it comes to airing the scene on Harley Quinn. It has depicted sex in all its forms across its media. DC has also shown male heroes getting oral sex from female heroes in the past. So, why can’t it show that women also deserve pleasure?

 

It is about time that DC gets over this taboo and shows Batman pleasuring his woman. The scene should be aired on Harley Quinn so that people know that there is no shame in going down on a woman.
