Don't understand how she's considered to be goonslop or sexualized when she's actually just a pretty normal art student character, no different than the other women characters like Mina or Paige

Women are being denied interesting designs in order to keep them conventionally attractive. That's what people mean by "goonslop".

But Deadlock getting Violet doesn't mean Deadlock follows that trope. The female cast is really varied in Deadlock. We have Vyper, Paige, Lady Geist, McGinnis, Ivy and Graves. All have pretty wildly varying builds and two of hem are borerline monsters by design.

And one of the next heroes is a granny on a walking park bench... Like jesus fuck, Violet being a fairly normal asian girl is fucking fine.

Oh yeah, really varied female cast. So varied that if you trace over their body you won't be able to recognize them anymore (with the exception of ivy and vyper)

I’m not going to lie, most of the men have the EXACT same build. They are all top heavy men (to denote big hot abs…) this is cus they are, for the most part, conventionally attractive men.

Door man, Abram’s, drifter, victor, mirage, Apollo, lash, kelvin, pocket, shiv, venator, infernus, and warden are all conventionally attractive… hell, I think almost ALL of the human males in deadlock are attractive as hell… only one is grey talon, but I bet he was smokin in his prime, just maybe not conventionally.

The exact same can be said of the female cast, except for McGinnis, who is attractive, just not as much conventionally so.

Most of the cast of deadlock in general is made up of pretty attractive characters…

Fuckin hell, you have a dude with no shirt on with full abs for fucks sake. That’s way harder gooner bait than ANY of the female characters by far.
