Basically only the male casting in the netflix show makes sense. All the women are ugly, and most of them have been race swapped. Yennefer, Fringilla, and Triss are all dog ugly and race swapped.
Fringilla specifically was the most egregious, she's supposed to be the most beautiful woman on the entire continent and in the show they pulled her straight out of Heart of Darkness.
I have noticed that when these Hollywood types race swap a character, it's never with a beautiful version of the race they are replacing, it's always ugly or (in the case of men) gay.
Having a beautiful black woman play Fringilla is still race swapping, but at least it's something decent to look at.
But nope, black AND ugly. It's almost like these Hollywood types are the actual racist.
Notice how you also almost never see women in Hollywood movies with breasts larger than DD.
Salma Hayek is a good example of this. She's extremely voluptuous and well endowed by Hollywood standards, and yet she's not that far above average in the real world. Christina Hendricks is probably the bustiest actress I've ever seen, and she even talked about how she would be turned down for roles because of her size.
In real life you can see women with G or larger a lot of the time, but not in Hollywood, because women feel threatened by them, and they can't afford to lose women's money.
In a way though this kinda makes sense for the narrative they're trying to push. "You could be the most hideous person on the planet, yet one day a super attractive guy will find you hot even after you accuse him of rape 37 times."
I'm not big on the overall lore, but yeah, I'm pretty sure all mages of note are sterile. And this would probably help play into how she feels about Ciri, being the lover of the man trying to be a father figure to her would naturally lead Yen into being a motherly figure towards Ciri.
I didn't see season 2, but wasn't her whole persona that she was beautiful and powerful, but sacrificed her ability to have children and regretted it?
If they dropped that, what was her character's point/motivation?
yennefer is hot in the video games.
in the show she's an ugly indian chick.

sounds like Twilight.
