  • Sally Whitemane:
    Yup; all the cosplayers keep making her old 90's outfit. Found ONE of the new DK version.

  • Tyrande Whisperwind:
    Again; all the cosplayers do her 2011 dress (and even her classic forest bikini ). Found ONE of her new bulky armored togs.

  • Jaina Proudmore: Actually, it's a mix. Cosplayers are still making her old midriff dress, but 50/50 are cosplaying her new outfit... but of course they all accentuate her bustier. So props to Blizz for understanding NO cosplayer can resist a leather buckle underbust corset.

favorite women in gaming

Cammy (StreetFighter II)

  • Gamers have adored her muscled arms for 30 years. She defied the "delicate female" body trope and gamers loved her for it.

  • Her facial scar has taught kids not to be body-shamed by injuries beyond their control, and empowered women of all ages who felt anxious about their "imperfect" faces.

  • She brought minority representation (Britain) into a game dominated by paticipants from the American (Guile, Ken, Balrog, Dee Jay, T. Hawk) and Asian (Ryu, Honda, Chun Li, Zangief, Dhalsim, Sagat, Bison, Fei Long) continents.

  • As an MI-6 agent, she proved a young woman can hold her own and thrive in a predominantly male government agency

  • Unlike many of her peers, she does not use weapons or shoot firebals. Her strength is her physical martial art skills tailored to her diminutive size, learned and practiced, making her relatable to young girls everywhere.

  • She isn't ashamed of her femininity and does not promote the message that women can only be "strong" by imitating men. She's proud of her long hair and doesn't let puritanical society shame her into covering up her skin and leg tattoos. Like all female volleyball players and gymnasts, she choses to wear her signature leotard because it's practical for the competitive physical sport she engages in.

  • Serves as a role model for young asexual women by boldly defying gendered fashion norms through her repeated wearing of neckties, while also normalizing female sexual empowerment through her fondness for chokers.

  • Is as popular today as she was back when she was voted 5th best character in 1993. Adored by female fans and one of the most cosplayed characters of the franchise, and has consistantly swept polls for the most popular and most wanted character in Streetfighter games for decades.

  • Teaches everyone that inclusive, all-female groups are a force to be reckoned with!

They think if every girl is covered up, then the playing field will be "even"

Deportation of ONE leader was a mistake. You create a martyr.

Should've deported twenty. Then no one would rally or print posters.

Tatsuya went from edgy 90's to openly "Women are the superior species; the apex of evolution" (and lesbians are the supreme beings, for they have evolved beyond animalistic desire for inferior men), and so naturally became the Champion of Women™, attacking all who didn't bend the knee.

But then he saw his side downgrade his precious lesbians on the ladder and saw them forced to kneel to trans dudes.

He could never allow that.

The point was to show how respectful music used to be.

Damn. Meme failed.

And yes, women love dancing to that last song.

It's an insanely popular LOVE BALLAD.

It's weird how leaking government data is a literal crime, while doxing is perfectly legal (but a bannable offense on most tech platforms).

That Frieren show is so huge, I'm considering watching.

Problem is, I was a huge anime fan/collector/fansubber since the 90's and stopped sometime around 2004.

Never watched anything since then... until 2016, because I spent years seeing memes abut Haruhi, and how it became the biggest anime phenomenon since Eva. So I watched a few episodes.

Worst mistake ever.

I was promised a show about a schoolgirl who was LITERAL GOD but didn't know it, and was unknowingly rewriting reality to shape her wishes.

Instead I got high school drama and near zero fantasy/superpowers, with school club meetings and whodunnit mysteries on island vacations.

Then came the (I'm told) notorious "repeated episode" arc where they thought it was CLEVER to repeat the same episode over and over. By the 5th rerun, I quit entirely.

Haven't watched any anime since.

Never forget to point out that since they transitioned, they are the top earning female directors of ALL TIME.

The Matrix trilogy is a triumph for women film makers.

  1. Matrix Reloaded (Lana & Lilly Wachowski) – $739 million
  2. Frozen II (Co-Directed by Jennifer Lee) – $477.4 million
  3. The Matrix (Lana & Lilly Wachowski) – $463 million
  4. The Matrix Revolutions (Lana & Lilly Wachowski) – $427 million
  5. Captain Marvel (Co-Directed by Anna Boden) – $426 million
  6. Wonder Woman (Directed by Patty Jenkins) – $412 million
  7. Frozen (Co-Directed by Jennifer Lee) – $400 million
  8. Shrek (Co-Directed by Vicky Jenson) – $267 million
  9. Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel (Directed by Betty Thomas) – $219 million
  10. Twilight (Directed by Catherine Hardwicke) – $192 million

And women everywhere clap furiously... right?

Season 5 has the new female captain

Everything Sheridan did, he did in THREE YEARS as captain of B5.

I remember the Crusade sequel series (soundtrack: dinka-donka-dinka-donka...) they checked in on Lochley, and she had been captain of B5 for... I don't remember... 6 years? Seven?

And literally nothing had changed. Particularly Her. She looked and acted the same way she did on day #1.

Star Trek: Voyager

The native American commander had LITERAL MAGIC POWERS.

Because "muh tribal elders."

That said, there were moments of uncomfortable clarity:

And let's not forget that while many of us grew up watching DS9 and liking Sisko... I'll never forget how he did something so profoundly Leftist and anti-Star Trek that it disturbed me even then:

Checking in on vintage anti-GG champions of women everywhere

Still hasn't had a job since 2010 and still living in a "commune" house with 8 other people struggling to pay rent...

...but his Maga=Nazi comics are on the front page of reddit again, so he's got that going for him.
