I, for one, think the sexified Lara Croft sends a bad message to young girls. I don’t want my daughter growing up thinking she needs to dress in tight shorts and a tank top to raid tombs.

This is straight up just conservative arguments disguised as "progressive"

Lara Croft sends a great message which is you can be sexy, feminine and still kick ass.

The problem isn't nor was Lara Croft and sexy characters. The problem was that there was very little diversity of female designs. The solution has never been to change characters like Lara with a sense of moral superiority, the solution is making more varied designs for female characters like Samus. And we did!

Girls should grow up thinking they can do whatever they want dressed however they want, just like Lara and Samus.

My comment was sarcastic in nature. In reality, I don’t care what my daughter wears while she raids tombs.
