Does it really increase sales among female gamers?

Marvel did the whole pixie cuts and grrl power promotion and it didn't increase their readership any. I remember one comic author for the company being disheartened when she discovered that, upon questioning, most of the people reposting empowering comic panels admitted to not personally reading comics.

If the women of tumblr and Reddit are the most likely to buy video games, then go ahead and include them in the video games. But if they're not the women most likely to buy video games, why punish the rest of us with eyesore haircuts? I'd much rather have a tomboy, a Goth, a geek (I mean that term affectionately), a muscle queen, or a gamer gurl than somebody with an eyesore haircut as a playable character.

That, or at least be consistent. For every woman with a tumblr cut, have one dude with a mullet. Let's be consistent in our freedom of expression. If I can rock my "business in the front, party in the back" look, then you can have your "freedom on the side, no maintenance in the back" look.
