The bumbling oaf guy compared to cool, calm, collected woman badass has been a trope for as long as I can remember but now I'd imagine it'd piss them off
Yeah when that trope happens today it causes discourse from those types despite none of them caring before a youtuber told them to be angry about it.
Basically if the male protag isn't a murder fuck machine like Conan The Barbarian and the women in the media have no speaking roles outside of sex appeal it's going to piss off a generation of impotent millennials who don't fuck.
I thought the girls were allowed to talk if they were hot and sexualized but they're saying the new Lara Croft design "looks like a man" now so I guess not.
Gotta enforce the gender role to it's logically violent end.
Man, calling it discourse seems incredibly generous
I tend to use the term pejorativly at this point lmao.
