Batgirl Variant Cover Controversy
Truth
![Merlynn132 2 months ago +therealnikachu Absolutely not. If you can't tell a two bit con artist from one of your own,you really need to clean up your movement before you start "suggesting" anything But maybe you're just naive and don't understand the problem. Do you know why there's so many white male characters in video games? Especially leads? Because no one cares about them A white male can be a lecherous drunk. A woman can't or it's sexist. Sexualizing women and what all. A white male can be a mentally disturbed soldier who's mind is unraveling as he walks through the hell of the modern battlefield. A woman can't or you're victimizing women and saying they're all crazy Consider Guybrush Threepwood, star of the Monkey Island series. He's weak,socially awkward,cowardly kind of a nerd,and generally the last person you'd think of to even cabin boy on a pirate ship,let alone captain one. He is abused,verbally and physically,mistreated,shunned,hated, and generally made to feel unwanted. Now let's say Guybrush was a girl. Well call her Galbrush. Galbrush is weak,socially awkward,cowardly,kind of a nerd,and generally the last person you'd think of to even cabin boy on a pirate ship,let alone captain one. She is abused,verbally and physically,mistreated,shunned,hated,and generally made to feel unwanted. Now,you might notice that I've given the exact same description to both of these characters. But here's where things deviate While no one cares if Guybrush takes a pounding for being,for lack of a better term,a less than ideal pirate,Galbrush will be presumed to be discriminated against because of her gender. In fact,every hardship she will endure though exactly the same as the hardships Guybrush endured,will be considered miso And that ending. She goes through ALL that trouble to help,let's call him Eli Marley,escape the evil clutches of the ghost piratess Le Chuck, it turns out he didn't even need her help and she even screwed up his plan to thwart Le Chuck. Why it'd be a slap in the face to every woman who's ever picked up a controller. Not only is the protagonist inept, but apparently women make lousy villains too! gyny, rather than someone being ill suited to their desired calling. And that's why Guybrush exists and Galbrush doesn't. Men can be comically inept halfwits,women can't. Men can be flawed, tragic human beings,women cant. And why? Because every single female character reflects all women everywhere The horrible truth is you and Sarkeesian want to craft a box into which you can force every female character into. Some idiotic "ideal". Putting aside the stupidity of exchanging one unobtainable role model for women with another,that has the added problem of making all female characters exactly the same. And when all characters are exactly the same,that's boring. And boring characters do not sell video games Oliver Campbell @oliverbcampbell Dec 3 I don't know who this is, but this is the greatest thing I read on the internet today. pic.twitter.com/UNrFAqvfGj £7516 ★534](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/masonry/000/936/175/208.jpg)
