Lynda Carter’s portrayal of the superheroine drew a large number of fans. However, the truth is that she didn’t like all of the attention paid to her appearance. When she spoke to Us Weekly in 1980, she went into great detail about this. According to Carter, “I never meant to be a sexual object for anyone but my husband.”

“I never thought a picture of my body would be tacked up in men’s bathrooms,” she explained, “I hate men looking at me and thinking what they think. And I know what they think. They write and tell me.” Worse yet, she spotted a peephole in the dressing room at one point. The person who was responsible for this was fired. Lynda Carter reflected on all of the sexual harassment she faced as an actress in 2018. In light of the #MeToo movement, she shared this with The Daily Beast: “I fended off my share [of unwanted attention, and] I’ve been afraid. [But] if a man tried something, I would say, ‘Are you kidding me?’… We were women’s lib, burn the bra. We weren’t going to take any **** from people.”
