Imagine having so much of your identity wrapped up in a media property that’s cynically over produced to extract money from as many people as possible using every manipulative narrative trick they’ve ever figured out — which huh I guess that’s part of why their identity is so wrapped up in it.

Its not egregious, its not sexualised, but it is feminine. It follows the character designs for the characters from clone wars and I'm sure they've all had millions of action figures of that design etc etc. It's an exercise in driving engagement having a go at the current popular TV show. Tedious stuff. Just don't read the Nazi website. BOOM problem solved.

I like Mandalorian but I'm not some kind of superfan. that tweet is just a good example of how she's always trying to stir poo poo up over nothing. her and her extremely trolled critics are part of a mutual ecosystem, like neocons and terrorists

the opposition to lady-shaped armor is ironic to me because the current body armor designs are far more effective if someone's torso is flat, so designing form-fitting armor for women could make it function better for them that being said, boob plates are not necessarily the way to go (maybe just adding layers in the gaps could do the trick) the dominatrix-style armor in sci-fi or GG cup boob cavities are definitely regressive Filthy Hans has issued a correction as of 18:34 on Nov 22, 2020 |

Maybe they should just paint big red kissy lips on the helmets, or put big eyelashes around the eyepieces.

it is genuinely funny that nearly a decade later, all she needs to do to rile up shitbirds is to do the exact same exceedingly basic takes on mass media properties like, there's valid criticisms of her, but el oh loving el at folks tripping over their dicks to point out that Boob Armor is good because it's canon or that it's just a little Boob Armor and not like they're wearing chainmail bikinis or whatever

The only issue I had with it was that the previous female Mandalorian didn't have boob armor at all. But considering that Mando's sect turned out to be hyper orthodox religious weirdos for all we know the Blacksmith had the equivalent of a burqa on.

I don't wanna get into a philosophical debate about how do you know for SURE what someone's REALLY thinking. I'm inferring based on what she's been doing for 7 years anyway my problem with the Mando armor is the opposite of hers. it looks too practical. having it raised a little in an area for a different body shape makes too much sense. what they need to do is give the women separated realistic boobs and put the men in hyper-detailed roman-style muscle cuirasses. nipple on both naturally

All the armor should be way more sexualized. An aggressive display of weaponized horny. Chainmail bikini samus, zero suit doomguy with demon skull codpiece, speedo greedo. This missed opportunity to JoJo-ize their defensive armaments doesnt speak well of the martial prowess
