It’s pretty simple to understand. They take any stereotypically attractive female character and make her fugly. All they do is invert value structures so it’s easy to predict. Downside is that most of the time the characters fundamentally can’t happen now.
Imagine a frumpy female James Bond like they wanted to do. Or this new Karai who looks fat and weird. She’s not even unattractive so much as completely unathletic. The character is no longer plausible. You’re not supposed to relate to super heroes so much as look up to them. You can relate on personal matters but the point is that they’re trying to be the best they can be so you should too.
I can’t imagine anyone’s reading this garbage anymore.
The older versions of She-Hulk looked like a hot chick that was green most of the time. You could change her colors and call her Wonder Woman or any other hero and it was the same generic look, just green, and sometimes she’d be more muscular when fighting.

But she also looks here like Brianna Wu.

She Hulk?? Where do you live with such stereotypes?
Their Karai is supposed to be muscular, but Jesus Christ:
