So this happened to me about a week ago when I was leveling my Gunbreaker. I got Tam-tara (Hard).
The healer and one of the DPS were new, so I took the time to explain stuff for them.
We get to the last boss and the new DPS decides that it’s a good idea to say this to me.
At the time I just kinda rolled my eyes I ignored it and we finished the dungeon. I bit my tongue though I wanted to say some stuff to them. It’s not the first time I’ve gotten this, and it’s not gonna be the last time I’m sure.
But it just kinda stewed in my mind. I’ve played Femroe since 2013. I’m dedicated to my girls and even though I wanted Viera when I started, there is no way I can change now because I’m just in love with Femroe.
I thought for a bit maybe they didn’t mean anything by it, but in my time thinking on it, I’ve just reached no other conclusion. They meant to be hurtful. They knew they were being an asshole. Fuck them.
That said, had this been said to anyone with a weaker resolve, I’m sure it would have hurt them incredibly and caused them a lot of sadness.
Fucking think before you decide to speak your opinions.
I don’t think femroe are masculine at all. I am a 5′4″ woman IRL, I am built very differently, but I know a lot of beautiful women that are tall and gorgeous and fit like Femroe. They’re beautiful and their femininity is NOT diminished at all. They are daughters, mothers, sisters, lovers, nurturers. They are beautiful women.
Just because someone doesn’t fall within your ideal body type, or what you think is feminine, doesn’t mean that you should take the time to open your mouth about it.
Keep your toxic bullshit to yourself and stop being assholes.
