I think you're a male chauvinist pig masochist pretending to be a female gamer who's not offended by having Kitana dressed like a stripper.

the MK games will no longer have strippers fighting monsters.

Do what we've all suggested to rubes like you and go play DOA.

not to freaks like you who want to keep the series mired in cheese and 80s action cliches.

Admittedly me and others who share my opinions had to be mean to some fellow MK fans, I've felt bad after sending hateful PMs to other members on other MK sites, I know I may have ran some people off of other forums, I know I've purposely gotten people banned from other MK forums like TRMK, GameFaqs and TYM and I own multiple accounts on said sites and even banned from said sites but it was all for a just cause....We've won, they're no longer strippers, but the MK females still aren't where they should be.

I look at Kitana in her new duds and I STILL see a slut.

not like from some 14 year old's porn infected fantasies.

I think you're a male chauvinist pig masochist pretending to be a female gamer who's not offended by having Kitana dressed like a stripper. you're just upset about the franchise's recent sea change in portraying women. sorry about you not getting off on seeing cg boobs and asses in MK anymore, but they're gone for good, the MK games will no longer have strippers fighting monsters. Do what we've all suggested to rubes like you and go play DOA. NRS has listened to US, to those who wanted the female proportions and costumes to be normalized for the series to be taken seriously on an artistic scale, not to freaks like you who want to keep the series mired in cheese and 80s action cliches.

We need more females like Cassie Cage in the MK universe to represent REAL WOMEN like we see in the REAL WORLD, not like from some 14 year old's porn infected fantasies.

Let's compromise and say futanari.



You meant sadist, not masochist. Sadist is also wrong in this context, but we're grading on a curve here.



FanFiction.net



This is good advice anyway. Lei Fang's counters are so goddamn sweet.



Because there's nothing 80's about the game with magic ninjas, U.S. special forces and invading hordes from another realm.



Tumblr feminism 101, kids. The presentation of fictional characters is more important than the treatment of real people.



Respect women, unless you don't care for their manner of dress. Then it's not only okay, but imperative to call them sluts. The key thing to remember is that women should be treated as equals up to the point that they offend someone.



Yeah, I can't even imagine the sort of sickos who would find sex appealing.

I'm a girl and I don't get offended, why is it wrong for a woman to show more skin? To me its more offensive reading things like "if you show skin you're a slut, if you have big boobs you're a slut!", like, wtf?

Shouldn't men be offended by Kotal Kahn or Kano then? Heck in the comic a lot of men are shirtles and with huge muscles, you can even see Kotal half ass, why is it ok when are men who are showing skin?

To me it looks like typical white knight complex, you think women get offended when girls show skins BUT nope, if you have a dirty mind and cries when you see some women legs it's not my fault.

Yeah, Cassie is flat (cause you know, if a woman has huge breast is because she must be a slut) no muscles, petite, and full covered up. God I hope she doesn't show her arms, that would be too offensive for me!

Funny how fatalities are ok but women proud of her body are not. Hilarious.

Ps: I didnt like MK9 Sonya outfit but that was because it didnt fit her. Edenian girls can dress like the hell they want.

Post of the year?
*Maria_Linda does a side-eye*
More like post of the catastrophe.

Let me write a little essay right here, let me tell you..

Men who insist they have a right to judge and insult a woman because of what she chooses to wear are being delusional and don't even realize... women who also insult other women for those reasons are just as delusional... women who do that are not doing anybody any favors. Fact of the universe and the galaxies.

You are being insecure when you do that.

People need to learn to recognize themselves first and foremost as free individuals and human beings.

Basically, a woman can do whatever she wants with or without your validation.

Ideally, everyone should stop putting labels on people, especially strangers they don't even know.

And that futanari thing that user was speaking about.. I don't know what a fluatanari is but please speak for yourself, you don't speak for me.

I speak for myself, as a free citizen of the universe.

You don't see anybody calling Kano a stripper. So why call Kitana a stripper.

It's so incredibly simple. LOL Yet, society and people in general kontinue to troll women, even to this day, in 2015!

Whatever. I am not impressed with this kind of deluded mess going on in the world.

Kitana remains unbothered and epik. An example to all. Learn respect and learn martial arts.

All the female kharakters in Mortal Kombat should be an inspiration for girls AND boys. If you are not strong and don't have a six-pack, you can go work on that. Ok?

Bye with this messy thread now.

All fair points.

But you're treating Kitana as if she's an actual person who made those decisions for mk9, same for the other women.

Sonya didn't choose to wear a high heeled - boobs out uniform to combat. Mostly male designers did, for one reason.

'Strippers' is a simplified and unfair label, but the criticism is real all the same. And as I've said before, NOT because women can't dress skimpily. But because ALL of them did in MK9. All of them.

That's just not good game design. All I want is for the women's outfits to be as diverse as the men's, and it looks like the designers agreed.

I've been called an SJW for that, but if that's the case then I'm a happy SJW. I want diversity. Mileena I love in exotic outfits.
Sonya and Cassie I want to look like military women - which can still be made sexy if you think for two seconds. Sonya's alt was revealing, but I've seen military women wear similar on their downtime. It made sense for her. Unlike her primary.


Diversity please.

I appreciate where you're coming from, but you can't expect one series to be all things. Mortal Kombat, as I've said before, is "Teenage Boys: The Game". That's all its ever been and NRS have never tried to convince anyone otherwise.

I think the mk females have more personality than most games with or without their boobs hanging out. Even when it's there it doesn't come first to most people. Sonya's getup never distracted me from playing or enjoying the game. How can it bother someone that much, I don't get the hate. Especially a game like mortal kombat where literally everything is over the top. A military unit would never dress like that, but it's the magic heels that allow her to rip somebody in half with her legs while doing a handstand. That's why cage is dead or in a wheelchair.

It doesn't bother me SO much... Clearly I don't mind that much as Sonya's in my signature...

But that doesn't mean it isn't bad character design. It makes Sonya look silly to be in heels and a boobtastic vest (that is clearly not meant to be worn as JUST a vest) and be on a mission.

samuhai Wrote:
You don't have to yell out to be put off by it.

You can have concerns with character design without freaking out - I loathed Kitana's hair with a fiery passion from a technical standpoint but that didn't stop me playing as her, but when we discussed it, I still had to say that it was awfully designed. etc etc.
