Here's a quote from them when people bring how some of their designs look like men instead of women.
For people who may not like this one because she looks too much like a dude… sometimes people do look like that. And maybe the problem is with our definitions of “manly” and “girly.” Why even cisnormativity.

Even muscle women who aren't jacked up on steroids still have some feminity, breasts and curves. CIS will always be the norm since trans folks will (no matter how many kids you brainwash) always be less than 0.5% of the population.
 
Not going to lie, as much as I dislike BABD I'm actually going to side with them on this one redesign. While I hate their "cover her up as much as possible!" solutions this one is quite justified. I'm not bothered by sexy armor but I definitely won't defend it on "loli" characters even if they're really supposed to be a thousand year old dragon in human form. Not to mention the redesign is actually pretty neat. It incorporates the traits from her original design instead of lazying filling in the gaps. I even prefer it over the original.

Credit it where it's due, they actually had a legit point when they tried to improve this. Props to BABD for making something that is honestly an actual improvement.
 
"Women hate sexy feminine stereotypical outfits that have no practical purpose!!"

Doesnt every women on second life play a triple D skimpy string wearing sex goddess?
 
While looking at this post of theirs where they put ugly sweaters on women, I noticed that they also made one of the women uglier (see the face) while they did it.

Aren't the bikini thot avatars usually men? Genuine female avatars tend to wear lolita, or at the very least keep their proportions in check.

Hard to tell really. Despite what BBAD would like you to believe men don't have a monopoly on skimpy and women don't have a monopoly on practical.

That's just fucking insulting. The sweater gag would've been fine (and I would've laughed), but mucking up her looks? Guess it's true; all women really do view themselves in competition with other women -- even fictional ones.

I might be showing some :powerlevel: here about what my interests are, but it should be no surprise that women have fought for ages - both in the nude and with what would be considered skimpy clothing. The Spartans, Amazons and Greeks, all the way to the Japanese have tales of women fighting either for the attention of another partner or to win dominion of another authority. Spartans specifically to where they were whipped, beaten and bruised to be the best of the best in combat. Regardless of gender, it seemed from birth they were trained to be soldiers from the start IIRC. As with Amazon women they also were similarly combative and well-trained. A lot of the training we see today, even the modern concept of entertainment wrestling all comes the rigorous fighting lifestyles of those peoples.

This is true, but there's a conspicuous absence here: armor. The thing is, armor starts at "heavy" and goes to "I'm wearing a fucking refrigerator." The number of women who can handle medieval-style arms and armor for long periods is tiny, which is why warrior women were almost exclusively light: biology didn't give them an alternative. BABD, of course, doesn't care about the actual biological differences between men and women that caused realistic arms and armor to be as they are (and will, in fact, scream "muh sore giney!" if you bring it up) they just want to see their "stronk wamman" fetish catered to while getting the dopamine hit that comes from being mad on the internet about the most trivial shit.

That's the thing - there's a plethora of women in combat in different time periods and eras with distinct ruling power (either they were considered same lowerclass men if they were in the same class, or some women were proven dominant over some male figures in an existing male hierarchy) - yet BABD choose to take these existing feminine archetypes and completely reverse them to the point of removing them of all femininity. What does that do for "empowerment of women" if they're no longer women?
Are they trying to say that existing powerful women who were also provocative to the male gaze in Greek or Roman lore (ie Helen of Troy) are somehow "part of the patriarchy?!"

Not only do we get BABD's obsession with poofy pants and uglyfying faces but we also get trans fetishization too.

I'm extremely disappointed in this design. Maybe give her a coat to something akin to the coats you see in artic native tribes. It was so easy for them to do,that only to shoot themselves on the foot.

Sigh...
 
There were no women in combat positions, especially not in pre modern armies. To actually pretend the Amazons were real outs you as a goon fetishist. There were female slaves sent into the gladiator pits, but to be torn apart by animals. Only total nerds who never did any contact sports could believe women can compete with men physically.

Ancient Nordic cultures like the vikings absolutely had female combatants, (shield maidens.) Whether they played a significant role or were effective is another story.

The Dahomey Amazons were real (again, effectiveness is a different question.) Gladiatrices were also a thing, but they fought other women (it was a specialty act, like dwarf fighters or whatever.)

But yes, the statement "no women in combat positions" is substantially correct.
