More and more, I'm noticing games and animation lightening up on restrictions about the way that female characters look. The most obvious example is April O'Neil. She spent the better part of a decade as a flat-chested teen. Now the 1987 version is back in two separate games and proudly flaunting what she's got. Black Widow is looking fine in the new Marvel game too.

You still get some characters like Teela from the new Masters of the Universe who are drawn to look masculine with only the slightest hint of being biologically female, but it seems like female characters on the other end of the spectrum are slowly slipping back in.

Have you considered some women WANT to be objectified? They're the real fun freaks.

It always was.

It's just that some companies took the "Let's not objectify" women thing too far and thought even mild attractiveness was too much.

....and a lot of people who freaked out if a woman wasn't rocking DDs in a stripper outfit. >_>

It's oddly worded, but Teela is drawn to look male.

It's not an anti-trans statement.

To be fair, that's the first image I've seen of her with a chest outline. She's usually shown with a figure-hiding chest armor.

there's no such thing as objectifying women. That's just shaming men for expressing their sexuality

which makes a lot more sense than having your oversized iron-clad male warrior fighting alongside a warrior in a g-string and shoulder pauldrons...

I guess you're right. They hide He-Man's chest. It's only fair they do the same for Teela.

Cosmo has been a joke for ages.

And yeah, armor really should cover up. Bikini armor is dumb as hell.
