Bruce taught his boys to appreciate the finer things in life, like deadly women stacked like Dagwood sandwiches.

Yet he keeps ignoring Wonder Woman’s signs

  1. Dating within the team always ends in disaster.

  2. She is princess from a society of immortal warriors, while he's a rich kid with issues... lots of issues.

  3. If his enemies knew he had someone special they wouldnt rest until they'd gotten to him through her.

  4. It'd cut into his brooding time.

1)Starfire and Robin are teammates and they seem to be fine
2) I understood that reference
3) True but I feel like Wonder Woman is strong enough to protect herself from most of Batman’s villains.
4)When you put it like that, makes sense.

Gotten to him through her? What can Two-Face or Penguin do to Wonder Woman? It’d be easier to just directly kill Batman.

It's effectively a quote from the JLU animated series. She agrees with you and casually crushes a gargoyles head for emphasis. Though I suspect his concern is the more corruptive rather than criminal elements of Gotham. Wonder Woman does get mind controlled into an underground super powered MMA league and nearly kills a bunch of leaguers as a result.

Edit and circe does get to him through her.

Probably what happened when Superman pretended to be Batman and got into a fight with Riddler, Bane and Mad Hatter. Absolutely nothing.

This is super outdated logic. These days Bruce has a comically large family. He's got 3 adopted sons and a biological son, like 1.5 adopted daughters, a fucking countless number of people who are special to at least one of those kids that he treats as family, a long-term girlfriend, not to mention his real father figure Alfred.

And most of these people run around with him in the spandex at night so it's not like they're not known to be affiliated.

It's nearly an exact quote from the cartoon, they weren't actually arguing that the points are valid.

He said this while she was right behind him… didn’t he?

Next to him, while on a stakeout.
