I'm talking about the West constantly exotifying Asian women and demanding that the exotification be accepted.

You're talking about how beauty standards are sexist, and how any beauty standards at all are sexist things.

I don't feel there's any point in continuing this, as it's become obvious we're arguing at entirely different things here.

So, a western company making a game with, most likely, western fans in mind and not doing massive changes to a model that - they openly stated was not supposed to be "supermodel" attractive because the asian fans thought she wasn't attractive is the west demanding people agree with their standards of beauty? Even though a number of factors between both western and eastern beauty actually match up?

[Because, remember - the comments were mostly focused on her beauty, not how realistic she looked]

That is not what you stated you were talking about two comments ago. You stated that your entire point revolved around the fact that beauty standards are different in different places.

You know what's obvious? When people don't respond the way you want, you move the goalposts. Good job.

Oh, btw: arguing that it's okay for Japanese fans of a game to dislike a female character because she's not "attractive" to them but then decrying Western exotification of Asian women is absolutely fucking ridiculous. Either it's okay to judge women based on their appearance or it's not. Sort that shit out.
