Terrible idea and bastardization of the source material. I will never support any adaptation that treats its source material with disdain instead of actual respect. If they feel like the cast isn't "diverse enough" (which I find silly) then create some new characters, don't bastardize already existing ones. This is quite troubling, after reading the news about Henry Cavill I was excited about the adaptation but this is a deal breaker unless the casting people reconsider.

The Witcher games and books are sexist that they decided to counter-balance it with some positivity for once on the Netflix side of things

Nicely done

What the hell are you talking about?. Even if the books are sexist, how is this decision "positive" in any way shape or form?.

I hope that was a joke and it flew over my head.

Bingo.
