Lynda Carter Claps Back Against Twitter Troll: ‘I Thought… You Were Already Straight’

Wonder Woman Lynda Carter has taken down many Twitter trolls during Pride Month, and she just crossed another one off the list.

On Friday, the "Wonder Woman" TV star got high praise from the LGBTQ Nation for fighting for love in all its forms on Twitter.

The LGBTQ Nation tweeted that she has "been in fighting form this Pride month, giving bigots like Lauren Boebert a piece of her mind on Twitter."

Carter explained that she wrote "Human and Divine" as "an anthem for the kind of love so powerful, it changes you forever."

"I wrote it for my husband Robert, who I miss dearly. Now, I hope the dance remix can be an anthem for LGBTQ love and liberation. Everyone deserves a chance to experience true love.❤️"

The former Miss World USA married Robert Altman in 1984. Unfortunately, he passed away in 2021. That same year, Carter released her song "Human and Divine," which can be heard in the video above.

On June 30, the 70-year-old actress felt that Pride Month flew by and felt that it should be extended into July. "Pride felt so short this year," she tweeted. "Surely you can have another, as a treat? July = Pride 2."

"No thanks!" one follower commented. "I idolized you as a kid, and just like that... one stupid comnent sets me straight. I'm done with you! Not following anymore 😣"

Carter clapped back with the perfect response: "I thought the whole point of comments like this is that you were already straight..."

Many users showed nothing but support for Lynda Carter and what Wonder Woman stood for.

"Try as I might you've never managed to turn me straight," one follower shared. "Every time I'm told to stop being gay by watching you as Wonder Woman I end up twirling around and capturing men with my lasso of truth."

"Keep twirling!" Carter replied.

Carter also commented on another fan's post about deflecting negativity. "We all need those bracelets, now more than ever," Carter replied. "I find that humor helps."

Back at the beginning of June, Lynda Carter wished her followers a Happy Pride by sharing artwork from Paulina Ganucheau of Wonder Woman smiling against a rainbow-colored background.

"So excited to celebrate with all my LGBTQIA+ friends and fans," she tweeted.

However, not everyone was ready to celebrate. "Wonder Woman IS NOT A SUPER HERO FOR GAYS!" one user tweeted.

Carter immediately clapped back, "You're right. She's a superhero for bisexuals!" It quickly sparked a firestorm of comments, but Carter didn't stop there.

Earlier in the day, Carter reminded her fans that she didn't write the scenes for her character. However, she noted that "if you want to argue that she is somehow not a queer or trans icon, then you're not paying attention."

She added, "Every time someone comes up to me and says that WW helped them while they were closeted, it reminds me how special the role is."

Later in the day, she thanked her followers for all the love and support.

"Love seeing all the love from LGBTQ+ fans today! Now here's one I call the 'ready to fight your homophobic relatives' pose," she tweeted. "Just kidding. (Or am I?) Haha!"
