(Anonymous) 2013-11-14 02:32 am (UTC)(link)I disagree.
I think a character can have the look of a sex object, and still be more than just a sex object, look at... Almost any Angelina Jolie character. Look at Linda Carters Wonder Woman.
On the flip side, look at raiden. When Kojima pitched the idea of raiden, his wording was something like (Forgive me I this isn't 100% correct it's been years) I want a beautiful fragile looking man as the new main character. Then the game comes out and he's a fucking badass... Who occasionally does naked cartwheels. Do the naked cartwheels diminish him as a character? No. Fuck no. He's wearing less clothes than Quite, and yet, look at that: not an object.
It's the whole thing about not judging a book by it's cover. I don't think you can say a character is being reduced to the status of an object based on how they look. Shit, look at lollipop chainsaw. The objectified character in that was not the girl in the cheerleading uniform. She was sexualized, ofcourse, and I'me sure you'd argue that her character design looked like it was objectifying, but then you play the game and follow the story, and you see that the looks do not dictate the character's strength.
TL;DR. I respectfully disagree.
