    Wonder Woman’s lasso does significantly better than our real world equivalent of at best, measuring somebody’s stress when you’ve intentionally put them in a stressful situation.

      Wonder woman’s lasso doesn’t even detect lies. It just forces you to speak the truth with a varying compulsion to reveal secrets depending on author.

      Calling it a lie detector is an odd thing when it’s the one thing it can’t do

      Edit: I stand corrected on my last point

        I think that’d actually be a pretty easy thing to use as a lie detector, just wrap the thing around whomever and say “say that again”.
