Christian Grey is like Batman!

Due to the explosion of orgasmic girl hype over the new trailer for 50 Shades of Grey I took an interest into the main character Christian Grey and why women drool over this motherfucker. It just so happens I found striking similarities with iconic icon of badassness......Batman.

Who is Christian Grey?

This Nigga.........

Christian Grey is the main character in the soon to be chick-erotica-flick-book adaptation movie Fifty Shades of Grey. You've probably heard of this book before because everyone fucking has! From it's 2011 electronic book debut(who knew electronic books sell when we have *cough* *cough* torrents and google) it has become a freaking pop culture staple, making not only teenage girls but grown women go crazy reading it's pages. It's pages being littered with scenes of sexual alpha male sexy sex scenes with the highlight being Christian Grey.
Personally I am shocked by the novel's enormous success. First of all I didn't even know people still PAY for books these days. Second of all we live in a time where feminism is on the rise and powerful women are portrayed in a very positive light. Yet this BOOK trilogy has managed to become one of the  best selling book series of all time with it's pages being flooded with the main female character put into such submissive sexual situations and it's a book(not even an audio book).
I grew up learning that to get girls to like me I would have to treat them equally, but then this book shows up to fuck with my principles. It's obvious that I will never understand women.
Anyway, the alpha male in the novel probably wouldn't attract so many women if he didn't share so many characteristics with the infinitely awesome BATMAN:
  • Christian Grey is mysterious. - Batman is like the most mysterious of all the superheroes....he fucking hides in the shadows.
  • Christian Grey is handsome. - Have you seen Bruce Wayne? He looks like a Christian Grey(or Christian Grey looks like Batman).
  • Christian Grey is extremely wealthy. - Batman has what we like to call imaginary wealth(so much money that he doesn't even no what money is).
  • Christian Grey has a troubled childhood. - Batman is based off of a troubled childhood.
There laid out plain and simple. The defining characteristics of Batman and Christian Grey are EXACTLY the same. Actually it wouldn't be very far fetched to say that this is just another one of Bruce Wayne's hobbies....every so often he moves out of Gotham to be Christian Grey, another one of his identities, making 50 Shades of Grey just another Batman chronicle.
A Batman chronicle.....that's how I'll remember this book from now on.
Here's the trailer for Fifty Shades of Grey by the way. If I see some good reviews on it I'll probably go and watch it then read the book. 
P.S.You want to know how to enjoy a movie adaptation? DON'T read the book first.
