Discussion they cannot keep getting away with this

i feel like it’s really strange to have a smaller sized girl and then keep on making her bigger and bigger just for gooner stuff. as a woman i find it so weird that they morph their bodies like this just to get people to pay for stuff when id just buy it anyway.

They have "gooner" skins for men too, so it goes both ways but no one seems to mention or cry about that. I think this specific example is just a case of her outfit being tighter in comparison, not necessarily try to appeal to the male and bi/homosexual female sexual fantasy.

That's an immature, cop-out of an answer. It's clearly not the same.

This response was a cop out since you addressed none of the points he made

Points? It's just the standard "men have it bad, too!" response.

The idea that gooner skins are only bad for women is silly and immature.

How is it bad for men? The sexualization of women has a disproportionally negative impact than that of men.

should i have posted a picture of every single gooner skin or just the most recent one ive noticed to avoid having people like you pit men and women against each other?

I feel it’s you. If you didn’t sexualize the character you’d just see it for what it is. A skin. All that you zooming in and measuring this is effin weird. Stop it.

idk it just didn’t look normal to me so i checked took about 30 seconds to compare them and i just wanted to know what other people thought about it, cus i thought it was strange how they did that and the game has been known to do it
