• As a female star wars fan I say...IT'S ABOUT FUCKING TIME!

• Here he is. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/players/profile?playerId=4625 The Padres are doing pretty well (12-8)so far this season.

• So your saying she's taken...

• I hate gender stereotyping, but this could be worse. It's still ridiculous how women's T-shirts are designed to be overly fitted, uncomfortable, and often skanky.

• I'm curious, is the fact that this article was posted on the same day as the Slave Girl Leia Car Wash coincidence? Or Karmic Justice?

• That's the funniest god-damned thing I've ever heard. If I saw a girl wearing that shirt I'd propose on the spot. Do you have a link to a picture of this wonderfulness? P.S. (gets down on one knee) Will you marry me?

• Um, hell yes. I am so sick of going to Target and seeing the awesome geeky shirts in the men's department and NOTHING like them in the women's. My two SW shirts are men's and so I wear them to sleep in. These tees are what I've been waiting for--long enough, non-crew-necked, and more than just a Star Wars logo.

• Nerdy girl shirts that aren't shaped like boxes are always awesome. My favorite girly Star Wars T is a v-neck baby doll that I got at DragonCon. It reads "You don't need to stare at my chest. These aren't the breasts you're looking for. Move along."

• I didn't want to read every post but that is the wife of David Eckstein the second baseman for the Padres.

• I like that they are tailoring shirts for females. Women come in too many shapes and sizes (same as men but for the purpose of this post just talking about us ladies). I find the problem is even if you find a small 'unisex' type shirt, it doesn't exactly fit well. A small man is not a small woman, so these shirts tend to still be too big, or fit like a baggy t-shirt. Geek girls like being sexy. I think there needs to be a variety though, because not every girl wants to wear the baby doll fit. The best Star Wars shirt I have is a size 6 boys with a cartoon Darth Vader on it. The only way I get away with it is because I am a small chick. I wish they made them in regular sizes, both men and women, so we can all share our love for all things geek.

• Thanks! I really need to check that out. I've been wanting a decent Green Lantern shirt for years that didn't fit me like a burlap sack.

• I will join in with the FINALLY's! Now if we could only get footwear too! Do you know how frustrating it is to walk in a store and see awesome Spidey/Transformer/TMNT socks or boots or shoes and yet they are only in boys' size 6x and smaller?

• Author mentions that it's a basic t-shirt with no girly frills. Totally true and indeed us nerd girls will rejoice in that. However it's cut for a girl, which will also excite nerds girls. My Star Wars original poster t-shirt was made for a guy (basic rectangle shape) so I bought a small ...however over time it got super short and makes me look like I am choosing to wear a baggy short and wide shirt. Girls t-shirts are cut for curves and made in curve hugging fabric so as to look as it does on the model. Awesome!

• Now...now I regret shooting Ahsoka Tano in my Star Wars game. This girl is my hero.

• What I really like about those tees is the length- no belly flashing! I will be buying one of those shirts.

• Huh huh.. you said feminine products. I was expecting maxi pads with S-foils!

• Awesome! I'm not a SW fan so I wouldn't buy, but I do appreciate the effort. Here's hoping other franchises follow suit!

• @Gyren I have the third shirt on this page and I love it : http://www.wearyourbeer.com/batman-m-96.html Hot Topic occasionally has some fun ones, like this one : http://www.hottopic.com/hottopic/LicensedGear/EverythingElse/ComicsAnimeCartoons/DC-Comics-Batman-Football-Tee-288565.jsp Hope this helps. :)

• I'm incredibly excited, personally. I have spent years loving the men's shirts at various stores, but as a short, petite girl, I haven't ever been able to wear them as anything but a sleep shirt if I didn't want to look like a 12 year old. The few girls' nerd shirts I have are, as many have stated, irritatingly girly. I'm a fan of the purple as well. Now I can finally buy a few that aren't children's mediums, too. :D

• You ladies are cracking me up! TR has the best group of chicks around.

• This discussion is really an engaging eye-opener. Manufacturers and retailers would do well to read this thread. So if you know someone who fits either description, forward this to them!

• Ooops. This wasn't meant as a reply, accidental click lol

• -high five-

• It's awesome that they're making these, but baby dolls aren't always the most comfortable or practical...and if you have any extra tummy (like myself), it shows like a sore thumb. Either way, though, it'll be nice to be able to buy nice geeky shirts and not look frumpy. ........I want a Boba Fett shirt :)

• 80's Tees has a GL ladies shirt. http://www.80stees.com/products/Jr-Green-Lantern-Logo-T-shirt.asp. It runs super small btw, if you are interested in buying one.

• Dear Lord, YES! Millennium Falcon!!!

• I'm still not satisfied. Babydolls are notoriously small, and for those of us who are, let's say, well-endowed, you can get the largest size and they still won't fit correctly. Let's find something in-between the unisex and the babydoll, shall we? But the designs are freakin' sweet, so I'm still on board.

• To repeat a zillion times: this is awesome. The cut is perfect, none of that cap-sleeved, too-short crap. No hot pink, no glitter, no rhinestones, no flowers, no overly cute redesigns of the characters.... Seriously, to all those other "girl-sized" t-shirt makers out there: Just because I am female doesn't mean my shirts have to look like they're for an eight-year old. AND they go to XXL, so my rack thanks you.

• I'll join in, this is great. Plus not to short, I like my shirts to have some length to them. I just really hope she puts out a sweet Millennium Falcon shirt. Because my lord would I wear the crap out of it.

• Well, guess I'm far from being original here, but: hell yeah, about goddamn time! They're not pink! That may come as a shock to a lot of people out there, but not every girl is Reese Witherspoon in "Legally Blonde"... - and this applies all the more to us, geek gals. Also, the lenghth is just perfect, much better than babydoll cut. But... wait: where's the glitter?

• Why has it taken THIS long to make nerd clothing for girls that isn't horribly offensive or unattractive? Jesus Christ.

• Hahahahhahahahahahha! I hear ya sister!

• Oh, soooo agreed! Those unisex shirts really make me look 12 or something... not hot. At all. Now, these ones look really cool!

• Best. Comment. EVER. I'd wipe the tears streaming down my face, but I can't stop laughing yet!

• actually, they do make DC character symbol baby doll shirts. They're in stock at my store right now. In fact, we not only have the men's characters, but we also have shirts for Batgirl, Supergirl, and Wonder Woman. Just keep looking. If you can't find them on line for purchase, I'm sure you can find the clothing line that makes them. Keep looking good ladies

• And glow in the dark arc reactor shirts!

• Those of us with larger chests as well. I feel like I'm in a vice when I wear a uni-sex shirt.

• I'm wary of the baby dolls though. An XL at one site can be a M at another site. I might risk it though for that awesome Flash shirt I just saw on that site.

• Agreed. And those of us with *ahem* less up top have enough clothing issues without unisex shirts making us look like boys.

• Yes! Finally a shirt that I can wear without looking like a shapeless... whatever. And, like everyone else has stated before, I am very happy with the non-pink (although I prefer the term 'lightish red').

• You can get a ladies' GL shirt from that site that phoenixphire24 listed; however strangely enough they do not make a ladies' Violet Lantern shirts... only a men's. For the all female lantern corps. Makes no sense!

• Exactly. Girls do NOT = PINK. I don't want a mens shirt in pink, hell, I don't want ANYTHING in pink. I appreciate these shirts because they're MADE for women. Even some of the sites that have one design thats printed on mens shirts and the 'babydoll' shirts don't always looked as nice because its not considered that -where- you print on a babydoll shirt matters... But in general, yay.

• Hahahaha, can't stop laughing!

• Nope, just for the ladies. In baby blue with swirly hearts, no less. :P

• Yes! Finally, a Star Wars t-shirt that will fit me and isn't pink. Seriously, I hate crew neck t-shirts with a passion. Am I wearing clothing or trying to strangle myself? I can only wear t-shirts with a scoop or v-neck.

• Second that!!!

• I agree with the rest of toplessrobot ladies. It's about time to have some star wars t-shirts that are not the same cut as men's and they are not pink... And Gyren the day we find that Batman girly-T you described will be indeed a happy day!!!

• I love Wonder Woman but I agree. There ARE female Green Lanterns!

• Do they make that "I love my Geek" in men's? I need one for my husband. ;)

• About effing time we got more girly t-shirts! Now if only I can find a Batman girly-T that isn't pink, purple or all sparkly.

• Yeah, but c'mon... if the article hadn't said it was Eckstein, would you have been able to tell the difference?

• So far so good AND it's about freakin time. I just hope they don't make anything that wasn't pink in the first place, pink. Kind of like sports related wear for women. The team logo is not pink, so don't make the freakin logo and shirt PINK. I freakin hate that. Just because my vagina is pink doesn't mean I want every-freakin-thing to match it damn it.

• Hear hear! It's always a struggle to find appropriately nerdy shirts (that aren't pink/objectifying/STUPID) that FIT a female frame. Most importantly? I'm appreciating the length of these shirts. The babydoll cut HAS to go. They're just belly shirts with cap sleeves. I'm glad these are shirts that look like they can actually be worn!

• Wow. Did Kristen Bell just step aside for Ashley Eckstein?! Yummy...

• that'll be the day! i mean.. it's as if companies think us gals are only interested in wearing super girl Ts and Wonder Woman etc etc etc.

• What I think? <333!!! It's about frickin' time! Always jealous when my guy and I go shopping and the guy's side of the store has awesome nerd shirts and the girls side has the "female equivalent" in pink or yellow with some stupid "I only date superheroes" or some other "cute" message scrawled across it ruining the general awesomeness of whoever is pictured.... I notice that while the pictures of this out so far are all about Starwars, her website refers repeatedly to just "sci-fi". So maybe other franchises will get involved??

• Equally dumb are the ones that are just sexual innuendo (panties that require "lockpicking skill") or shirts that say, "I love my geek." As if we can't be geeks ourselves or are only useful for sex. Jinx and Thinkgeek irritates me with their selection for women (although they do have a few decent shirts).

• This was posted on her blog section regarding girly stuff, "I also read hundreds of comments from female fans begging for merchandise designed and made specially for them, and not something that was an afterthought made in pink."

• See, Marvel? It's not that hard. (And Valve, and Star Trek, and...)

• Also, these guys have a pretty good selection: http://www.stylinonline.com/ladies.html

• I agree! I hate that sites, even good ones like ThinkGeek, often only print shirts in unisex. Unisex never fits! This is one of the reasons most of my shirts come from Threadless, all of their shirts are printed in "girly."

• I appreciate the fact that it is the cut of these shirts (v-neck, a little more fitted to curves) that makes them for girls, they didn't make them pink.

• I think it's cute. It's not hot pink and super-girly which is a plus. Maybe DC/Marvel will take the hint and make some Green Lantern shirts for girls.

• Now all we need is DC to make Batman/Superman/Flash/Green Lantern shirts for women that do not have some sort of stupid saying on it like "my boyfriend saves the world".

• I like that they're colorful but not girly. Mostly I care about cuts that fit, I look much better in a "babydoll" than a regular tee. Looks like this delivers but we'll see...

• Um, no, the article clearly states that it is Ashley Eckstein in the pictures.

• So now I can get star wars shirts for the wife, sweet They have had shirts for females before but I would guess this is a line with different prints? Also that's Asoka? I want her to die less now

• Is that Christina Applegate ? Wow. She's lookin good. Who cares about Star Wars ?

• Wow. She is smoking hot. Seeing her in those Star Wars shirts makes the entire rest of my day.
