I know the first is a tomboy which is a type of girl personality, assuming the second is the same. Loki is a Norse god so don't even apply human rules them and wtf is the 4th image?
If they are paying to push this, it means even the idiots that do it for free are realising it's a losing front, which is good the sooner all this multiple gender shit is in the trash, the sooner the west at least can move onto rebuilding.
GIR from Invader Zim. Who is an alien robot who has to try and blend in with Humanity but doesnt know how that works because they are an alien.
Also, the second is probably actually what the Lefties are talking about and is not a Tomboy. But that is because it is a character from an animated show that was based on a Tumblr comic series....which should tell you everything you need to know about it.
GIR, last I remember was also broken. Given to Zim cuz every real invader got one and he got a broken one and send away because he was annoying.
not just broken, his brain is literally some shit the leader pulled out of his pocket and threw in the robot.
He is also the epitome of writing a "deliberately annoying personality."
Anyone who lived through the 2000s knows that girls, and almost exclusively girls, loved Gir because of how annoying and "quirky" he was. Was almost a perfect venn circle with "holds up spork" type of girls that nobody liked.
I liked the doom song but Zim was the clear favorite of the series.
Relating to the second image, I hate how these tumblr inspired shit can get the style of tomboy about right but then fuck up their personalities. In their heads all tomboys are essentially men inside women's bodies or full on trans.
The sad part is the original run had a lot of fans poking fun at lefty stuff. We shipped the chair and a coffee mug at one point.
Next in the ultimate heel-turn they'll be pointing to droids in Star Wars and claiming "the CHUDS can't accept that droids are genderless!"
it's interesting to think about. droids indeed do not reproduce, so technically speaking a male and female sex would not apply. protocol droids will have male or female voices, but they will otherwise act and are built the same. Since they are built to be humanoid and social, this makes sense.
droids like R2D2 and other utility and astromech droids don't have a gender because they're fucking robots. they're not even supposed to resemble anything human or be social. if memory serves, they are never even referred to with pronouns, but rather they are always referred to with their designation or a shorthand of their designation. "c-3po, 3PO, r2d2, r2, etc." droids that do have names given to them, such as Chopper, are also referred to by name or nickname, and never with a pronoun.
asking what r2d2's gender is is like asking what Google's gender is. both Google and R2D2 do not have one because they're not alive. They aren't people.
I'm pretty sure google is a she, because I'm absolutely sure the org is collectively a bitch.
As I remember it in the EU droid 'gender' was about on par with why youd use a male or female voice for a computer prompt or public announcement- that is, entirely utilitarian to the function it serves.
Even in (at least)some of the Extended Universe books, the droids were referred to as "it," but that had to do with them being seen as not people
I'm surprised they haven't already, if just to disown the actual Feminist Stereotype droid in the Solo movie from representing women.
