Also Shevek (and maybe Mr. X) both seem to have argued in many threads that a very SPECIFIC kind of sex appeal is the only valid one. Looking at the concept art for the movie I think that's a very sexy heroine. She's not overly sexualized (which is a totally different thing), but she's still sexy as hell. A woman can be "butch" or have short hair and still be hella hot. She can kick ass in practical shoes and be hot. That's okay if those things don't do it for you, Shvek, but you constantly seem to be equating what YOU think of sexy as universal and painting anyone with differing sexual tastes as being invalid and almost inhuman. You throw around the term "SJW" as if its not just an insult, but referring to another species. It feels like your intentionally dehumanizing anyone who presents an opinion you disagree with, which definitely muddies the waters of any argument your trying to have and puts people on guard. You might not realize your being so insulting, but you ARE and it makes people want to push back.Femina wrote: ↑6 years agoWhat I am NOT saying is that I think sex appeal being in Captain Marvel is a bad thing, I'm only saying that if there ISN'T sex appeal in Captain Marvel it isn't the end of the world, and it could STILL be an amazing film that isn't a waste of time, and that it doesn't have to mean it's some 'SJW' Conspiracy either.
We've all heard your opinions countless times. And we know if we dare mention a contemporary character/comic your going to appear as if by magic and going into your normal rant. Personally, because of that, I don't really see any point in even trying to discuss mainstream comics on this sight. Because you (shevek) and a few other people are going to ensure the thread turns out just like this one. So what would be the point?
