Psst, Laura croft is fictional. You are not fictional. You are not designed and drawn by a creepy guy. No-one is judging ~you~.

Neither was Lara, apparently.

Fail by person you are replying to.

Sorry, I should post the quote.
It was never the intention to create some kind of 'page 3' girl to star in Tomb Raider. The idea was to create a female character who was a heroine, you know, cool, collected, in control, that sort of thing. The problem with those other games is that the female characters are actually there for purely exploitative purposes. I know you could argue that Lara with her comic book style over-the top figure is exploitative, but I don't agree. I think it's ridiculous to say that portraying stylised people is degrading.

Psst, the quote was in reference to the Jessica Jones TV show, which stars an actual real woman who has the "acceptable bustsize."

And even so, the whole idea that women in media have to have small boobs to be "acceptable" and not "creepy" or overly sexualized IS a judgment of real women who are busty. At the very least, it says there's something wrong and sexist with characters who look like us, which let me tell you, is not a good message to send to ANYONE, and I think it's fucking bullshit to claim feminism while saying a certain group of women shouldn't get characters who look like them simply because those characters are "too sexy."
