It is superhero day at my workplace! I am a recovering anthropology grad student! I want to go as "Anthro-Woman: Non-violent defender of human rights and advocate for social justice"! Except anthro-woman is a terrible name. Alternate suggestions?

"Anthrogyne"? "Virago"? "He-Ra"?

Best answer: I like the Humanist, and you should also be part of the Social Justice League.

Response by poster: You are all brilliant, thank you! The Humanist it is! I shall challenge oppressive dictators and patriarchal systems using intelligent discourse and trivia!

I knew my M.A. had to be good for something...

The Human Being? ;)

Actually, I like the idea of a super-team based around anthropological movements.

Captain Kinship!
The Structuralist!
The Structual-Functionalist!
Ethos, The Reader of Cultures!
The Subaltern Subject!
The Fighting Frankfurter!
Mick Taussig!

on second thought, that sounds like a terrible idea

I love "The Humanist," but you might also somehow work in the fact that you're a "Master of Humanit[y]."
