Good grief.
These are CHARACTERS, which were DESIGNED by real people! Most of these characters were designed by MEN! To be HOT!
Tell me if I lost you somewhere in there!

(Anonymous) 2019-08-03 10:52 pm (UTC)(link)Unrealistic expectations... that video games might occasionally have women who are anywhere under an F cup? Who wear one (1) whole shirt and one (1) whole pair of pants? Who don't need a "totally deep and emotionally complex u gaiz" reason for wearing a bikini on the front lines because, twist, she's wearing the same thing as all the male characters?
What the fuck comment did you think you were replying to, there?

(Anonymous) 2019-08-03 11:22 pm (UTC)(link)I think the original anon was pointing out that it's not the women people are blaming, it's the men who design them to be sexual. Those were exclamation points of frustration, not approval.
Then you told them to go back to reddit, and they were like "what's wrong with wanting women to have normal size boobs and wear clothing?"

(Anonymous) 2019-08-03 11:26 pm (UTC)(link)1) OP is pretending that criticising character design is the same as criticising real people. That's what the "body shaming" and "sex positive" bits are about.
2) I point out that these are fictional characters, not real people, and that the bulk of criticism is usually directed at the designers of the characters. Video game designers are predominantly men. When interviewers ask game directors and designers why none of their female characters have small breasts or own shirts capable of covering said breasts, it usually comes down to "titties hot".
3) Here's where you come in, and somehow draw the conclusion that I am being sexist, or maybe that women with tiny waists and large breasts need more representation in the media. I'm gonna be honest, I'm not really sure what you were going for there, apart from the bit where you accused me being a redditor.
4) I try and seek clarification on your weird-ass comment. Maybe you thought you were replying to someone else? Maybe you're suffering full-sensory hallucinations and Quiet from Metal Gear Solid is leaning over your shoulder and telling you to defend her fanservice-y honour? I don't know. I give more examples of common sexist character design decisions, in the hopes you will work out what this whole post is about.
5) You pretend that not being invested in things is the superior position, and I realise that you just don't know what the fuck is going on.
Has that clarified things for you, or do I need to start making a chart?

(Anonymous) 2019-08-04 02:19 am (UTC)(link)Their comment was perfectly comprehensible, dude. You just have the reading comprehension of a potato. Are you getting enough sleep?
