Jenner posted:I'm glad Monster High is trying to be forward but I look at it as someone who's semi-artsy and all I see is how disproportionately thin these girls are and how every last one of them is drawn the exact same way just with different hair/clothes/accessories. It's less 'animation costs' and more 'we want all clothes and accessories to fit on all dolls.' Kind of like how all 12" G.I.Joe figures (for boys!!) have the same body so their clothes and accessories are universal. This particular problem is not a gender one-- it's just a consideration of the toy making process. As nice as it'd be for different body types to be included in a set, it would be a lot less fun (and stifling, in its own way) If the fat girl had to wear the fat girl clothes and the tall boy had to wear the tall boy clothes, you know? The thing to pick on in toy production is the sculpt of the master body... As a 33 year old straight female who has been a severe tomboy her entire life (seriously, I dress not unlike a butch lesbian). I've never felt much pressure to conform to beauty standards. This, I'm sure, is thanks to extremely supportive parents who just wanted me to experience all life had to offer and to follow my dreams no matter where they took me. I didn't even get much pressure in school... Though I'm not sure if that was because the pressure didn't exist where I grew up (rural Maine) or if I was just not keyed to perceive it.

I liked this thread better when it was about video games, not my little pony and avatar

Playing the new South Park Stick of Truth game, there's... this! (skip to 3:40... the commentary blows, but it was the only video I could find) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAITYDfTvpE

As a tattoo artist myself, I was delighted to learn that a tattoo can be applied using only the needle and tube assembly... This is great to know, because a good tattoo machine runs upwards of $5-600 and I can save a TON of money by not using one! (here's how the needle and tube attach to a tattoo machine in the real world)  I know, a girl game getting something wrong? Say it ain't so!
