I think there's a cooling system somewhere in there. Or n her Zero suit... suit. Like I've said before, sexism goes way back in this business and that's where she picked up her bikini all those years ago, and it stuck. Whether or not it's a love letter to the fans, Samus received that suit because of female objectification. But I don't feel like this conversation is going anywhere, do you? |
This isn't objectification! Putting a woman in a sexy outfit (however practical it is) isn't objectification. Yes, she is attractive, and maybe she was made attractive because the game designers wanted to make her attractive, but who cares? There are plenty of attractive men in games and other media, but you rarely see them being targets of objectification tirades. She is in exercise gear, get over it and stop being so touchy. This doesn't harm women or women's rights in any way. This in no way is discriminating against women due to their gender. This in no way treats Samus as an object more than any of the other characters or more than any other costume.
This conversation may be going nowhere, and as you said, you don't have much to say on the matter, but people keep dragging you into it. While you don't have much to say, you choose to keep saying it, and if I see you saying something utterly ridiculous and unfounded, I'm going to call you out.
There is nothing sexist about putting samus in typical work out gear. It is only sexist because you (and the SJWs of the internet) are trying to make it sexist, and I think that is more of a personal fault than the fault of a game. If you can't look at an attractive woman without thinking that she is a sex object, that is on you...
