Manstream Awards is a site set up by the Manstream Society in 2007 to highlight misogynystic and silly portrayals of women in comics. Subtitle: Comics from the Mainstream, for the Manstream.
The "Welcome" entry notes that
- Inspired by divalea, every week the Society seeks to recognize (and make fun of) images published under the Marvel or DC comics banner which appeal to the 'manstream' — that is, the reptillian part of the fanboy psyche which responds to images of excessive female flesh, ginormous breasts, females in bondage, etc. In other words, pictures that would probably get you slapped by your girlfriend if you were stupid enough to show them to her.
- The Society also accepts works that, in general, earn the ire of irate fan girls.
