There's a reason Wonder Woman uses a lasso.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Summary Wonder Woman has stood for many things over her decades of publication: love, truth, even the aspect of war. But her modern depictions tend to gloss how, when the character was first conceived in 1941, one of the major components of her lore and legacy was the act of submission.
Wonder Woman's indestructible bracelets were deliberately designed to invoke the act of being bound by the wrists; likewise, the Lasso of Truth compels honesty from a person once they have been bound by it, compounding the notion of gaining strength or virtue through submission. Modern day depictions of Wonder Woman have largely left these elements behind, focusing instead on Diana's martial prowess and compassion.
