Captain Science and the Weird!

My friend Kristin has a calendar at her desk of old sci-fi book covers (or comic covers or whatever).

Essentially, they're almost all some dude in a spacesuit, with a rocket-pack, a bubble helmet, and a raygun defending some helpless, scantily-clad woman.

She pointed out something that's sticking in my head.

In NONE of these posters is a woman wearing a spacesuit or helmet.

Not one.

What's the assumption back in the '50's? Space-women didn't need to breathe? Necrophilia was okay?

It's vaguely-creepy.
