I would like to take a moment to recommend The Paper Bag Princess by Robert Munsch if anyone is looking for a good children's book with a strong female character.
It's about a princess who decides to rescue the prince she's supposed to marry from a dragon when he gets kidnapped. However, the only thing she can find to wear is a paper bag. After the princess eventually outsmarts the dragon and rescues the prince, he's a complete jerk to her because of what she's wearing. So, she calls him an ungrateful bum and decides not to marry him after all.
The boots look quite a bit like a combination of hoof high heels and ballet boots. Here's an Amazon link to an example; click in a private browsing window unless you want your future Amazon suggestions to be fetish gear. Not really combat gear, but then it looks like that the game's style.
I see what you're saying, largely agree with your suggestion. But.. indeed on the part of the authors credibility, for example: https://www.amazon.com/Life-Before-Childrens-Memories-Previous/dp/031237674X
> Letting women be equals
Since when weren't we?
I bring this book up cause everything I know about D&D came from Slayers, and I've wanted this book for years.

> Why video games? Why not movies or television that depict violence and sexism and have larger audiences?
Do... do you realize that these conversations happen much more broadly and are much more accepted within movies and TV?
Do you pay attention to media criticism at all? I always feel like GGers don't, which is why they freak out over such trivial, widely accepted things. To them, it's an attack on their precious, when it's common elsewhere.
There are books about this very subject
These aren't controversial things, only when applied to video games, and even then, only to young white males who can't understand this isn't an attack on them or an attempt to ban anything.
> As they documented in their book Crash Override, Quinn received a deluge of death threats, their online accounts were hacked, and family members were also targeted. The message to women in games was clear. Don’t make games that challenge patriarchal preconceptions of how games should be.
So I wonder if /u/Alex__V would call this a "conspiracy theory", because there's no direct evidence that these death threats were primarily from GamerGate.
Also, to be avoid being deliberately misinterpreted, I am not personally calling this a conspiracy theory, as I consider it a reasonable conclusion, much the same way I consider it reasonable to conclude that the Gamers are Dead articles that all happened to drop on the same way were coordinated.
I think you have to give people a certain degree of credit for "assumed basic common sense". I don't know if you've ever read this, but it's hilarious. There are tool companies putting warning labels on hammers saying "do not use to strike any solid object". On a hammer. Warning labels on packets of salt not to put it in your eyes, warning labels on lighters that "flame may cause fire", warning labels on urinal cakes not to eat them, warning labels on superhero Halloween costumes that WEARING THEM WILL NOT GIVE YOU REAL SUPER POWERS!
Actual labels on actual products that got put there because the company is terrified somebody will do something COLOSSALLY DUMB and then sue them. And I don't wanna see that attitude come to the arts, where one person's stupidity becomes everybody else's problem and "this is why we can't have nice things".
So sure, if a game, or any other piece of media, is making big pretensions about its authenticity and how it's "ripped from the lost pages of history" and so forth claiming to be accurate, and it's NOT, it's totally reasonable to say, as it would be to say to anybody else spouting bullshit, "hey, stop spreading misinformation!", but the rest of the time, if you're playing Civ or COD or watching fucking Aladdin or whatever, you HAVE to realize that you're getting the theme park version of an event or a culture or whatever else, not reading a history textbook. And if somebody is dumb enough to get their impressions about what other cultures are like, or what groups are moral or whatever from such media, that is clearly neither real nor reflective of reality, we as a society have to be willing to say to them "that was YOUR problem. The work doesn't need to come with warning labels".
