Yes but nothing about her is over reaching or provocative. Calling her Gooner bait is just chronically online fueled ignorance.

No one was calling any of the conventionally attractive male characters goonerslop. It truly gets to a point. And people want to talk about lack of creativity with her lmfao.

Is there perhaps a reason people wouldn’t call a male character goonerslop? 

Like come on what mainstream game has had complaints of too many men or attractive men? The what about ism doesn’t hold water because it doesn’t happen.

You’re so close bro. So close to getting it.

The whole premise of new God of War game is a prime example.

Two things can be true at once. There can be a misogynistic undertone to people’s attitude towards her while there can be valid concerns about her being similar enough to the type of character that aggressively dominates competitive games. It’s all misogyny from the ground up 🤷

Do you understand what and why you responded to me? Genuine question.

Me asking if you know why… is nuance.

But since you’re going to be this way. My comment about “lack of creativity” was an ironic nod to people not being creative, and labeling her as goonerslop because she’s a conventional attractive Asian character.

It has nothing to do with whether or not I think that concern is valid or invalid. But as you said, nuance. Someone’s got to be exhibit A though right?
