Gal Gadot and Kate McKinnon are two women who are suddenly taking Hollywood by storm—Gal Gadot with Wonder Woman, and McKinnon with various comedic roles. Gadot had just recently hosted her first episode of Saturday Night Live, and a skit has her making out with McKinnon for a really long time.
The skit involves two lesbians (McKinnon and Aidy Bryant) who find themselves stuck on the island of Themyscira. Though the idea of being stranded in an island full of only women seemed "super gay," the two are disappointed to realize that none of the Amazons identified as a lesbian.
Gadot's Diana, however, decides to give it a try and kisses McKinnon full in the mouth. Despite this, Diana remains straight and says, "I'm sorry, I feel nothing."
I can already imagine a lot of PC people getting triggered with the skit online, but I think that the message of having Diana straight despite being brought up by only women gives a good message: Being a strong woman doesn't necessarily mean you have to hate men.
The people who believe opposite of that are widely known as "Feminazis."
Just something I find interesting—the Amazons in the comics are not entirely stranger to men. To keep their race alive, they actually invade ships like pirates and have their way with the crewmembers. Pleasure then turns to horror as, when the men finish, the Amazons then murder the entire crew.

I can only imagine they also discard the babies who were born male.
All-in-all, I think Gadot is a good sport for being on the skit. She's one of the biggest celebrities in the world right now, and the internet absolutely loves her. We'll get to see more of her Wonder Woman when Justice League comes out Nov. 17.
