Oh come on, now you’re just feigning ignorance. The body types correspond to both modes of human sexual dimorphic presentations. Just because you take away the names doesn’t mean the dimorphic traits are absent. It IS a sexually dimorphic character creation system. So within that, let’s look at who gets to be the default and who gets to be the “second sex” (highly recommend reading de Beauvoir, again). OP is taking issue with not just the veiled binary but also the hierarchy within it.

Let me put it this way. Imagine if the body types were no longer sexually dimorphic but had varied skin tones. And despite the fact that we know skin tones present in a variety of ways, they only offered light peach skin tones and dark skin tones. And they made the secondary one the darker skin tone. Maybe you or I would have a problem with it, maybe we wouldn’t. But could you understand why someone might take issue with that? It’s a fair objection to make, whether we can conceive of a solution or not.

And hey I think OP’s solution would apply pretty well here: let us create characters with a variety of presentations! Or maybe just take away the “light” and “dark” options? A lot of people in this thread responded with great rationale from game dev standpoints, and that stuff is valid. I can see why devs do things the way they do. But I can also see why OP doesn’t like it.

OOPS sex is a social construct too

“Why do we have to be Universe B?! You be Universe A and we’ll be Universe’s 1!”

lol you should see what the slider does. it’s not great. max femme makes you turn cartoonish puffy and red

yikes, OP wasn’t calling this secondary any more than Simone de Beauvoir was when she published The Second Sex… it’s an actual problem that deserves recognition, and shitting on someone for recognizing it? you’re the one reinforcing the problem now!!

OP was merely gesturing at another instance of patriarchal culture treating the feminine as secondary by putting it second. not a controversial revelation tbh quite trite really

still haven’t tried it! it’s in my library

That one was recommended to me in my search for a satisfying mobile game. Didn’t look into it much. Does it have mtx?

MHW Iceborne is fun

Diablo Immortal on mobile is shit

Oh I’m sure you love immigrants nominally but you seem to advocate for policy that is harmful to them.

I’m not doing your homework for you. I don’t give a shit about you. I don’t know who you are, and I’m not gonna waste effort doing research to pull some random stranger out of their hypocritical bias. I’m just letting you know: you have made some beliefs on false info. If you want to stop living your life bitter about immigration, how about you learn about its positive effects? For starters, how about anyone YOU have positively affected, or the people your dad has?

Oh what a cliché story… a first-generation immigrant who hates immigrants. Yeah, I’m sure your dad did things perfectly and you are even more true blue perfecter than him. Get a grip. Immigration improves lives for natural citizens. Look it up. You probably wont because you seem to have made up your mind.

So… you don’t want permanent residents who intend to live their entire life in Australia to be able to buy property? Don’t you think this is a bit xenophobic?

Then where do you live?

so does this mean India is giving control of the region to Pakistan?

fascists

Cool chart, where’d you get it?

Some rough conversions:

30 km/h = 18 miles/h

50 = 30

70 = 45

96 = 60

what’s SBU?

the heck does “should” mean?

but they’ve probably driven one at least once between birth and death
