Walk into your average university campus and (among the teaching staff, at least) you'll almost exclusively see old, white men.
Walk into your average army barracks and you'll see about 0.12 women.
This is the big difference between the two: in-universe, wizards are militant academics or mystics.

In a world of magic and magic fighters (He-Man, DBZ BS, any animu, and let's be honest high level Barbarians due to DR), the physical difference is negated.

I guarantee that every Manly Man Who Does Manly things op has jerked it to is at least as unrealistic as "warrior women". Probably more so, given that there are plenty of examples of pre-modern women fighting in wars and such whilst the OP's fantasies exist only in fiction.
If we're talking about the female Barbarian archetype, then you just need to realise how many people are into femdom.
>>43946672
''retarded excuses''?
It ain't an excuse. Its an explanation. Why care about ''warrior women'' when you've got wizards and dragons in the same army? When you've got dwarves in the same party and an elf that talks to trees?
If you want to enforce realism in your game, feel free. Everyone is a human, 1 person is allowed magic and theres no monsters, just bandits. Thats your call. For everyone else, its largely irrelevant considering the standard set by other factors.
>>43946471
>>Why are warrior women so popular in board games and fantasy in general, when the entire concept is just laughably unrealistic?
You just answered you own dumb question ya level 1 bait. Because it is fantasy, it is supposed to be unrealistic.

No, I'm pretty sure that would outlift your example.
>>43946471

It doesn't need to be realistic because in a fictional world you can set your own rules for what counts as normal. If it's declared that men and women are equally competent at adventuring or fighting, then they are. If magic is said to exist, then it does. And so on.

>Why care about ''warrior women'' when you've got wizards and dragons in the same army?
The latter would be destructive even in real life. The former wouldn't.
Unless you have an explanation for why women are physically equal to men, women will fare more poorly in battle. "IT'S FANTASY" by itself is not a justification.
>>43946637
good joke, friend
>>43946471
It's perfectly realistic anon. Take the women of today and put them in a fantasy realm. Why would you even bother with them when there's so many other things out there to hump? Who wants to bother listening to women cry about cleaning dishes when there's a brutish female ork out there past the tree line ready to molest you?
No one wants to bother with that, so in order to stay relevant, women attain juicy gains and attain memorable status. The lazy ones become bitter tavern wenches, cuz hey, someone's gotta do it nomsaiyan?

I'm just saying no militarily succesful civilization heavily relied on female "warriors", and the one that did had a tendency to get rekt. Western civilization was built by the men who fought and died to protect it, not women. The idea of strong independent womyn warriors is an anachronistic tumblrism.
>>43946884
Elves are weaker than Orcs. Why are there any Elves in your nation's army?
>>43946608
Why not? Can you show male nips?
Here ya go OP. This is probably what you want instead of those icky women, right? Can't have those bitches ruining our totally heterosexual sword-fighting where we swing our long, hard weapons around occasionally colliding but ultimately trying to penetrate the other's soft, warm flesh.
But yeah, OP is a faggot.
>>43946934
>Why are there any Elves in your nation's army?
Don't elves usually serve as, you know, archers and wizards?
I haven't seen frontline elves so far.
>>43946938
>WAAA FEMALE NIPS ARE JUST LIKE MALE NIPS
Go back to tumblr faggot.
>>43946884
Well, it is fantasy. How do we know that they share the same form of sexual dimorphism as us? Maybe the females are larger and stronger as in many species? Maybe a female goddess boosts their abilities in battle? Maybe they fight because they need to?
Theres loads of reasons realistically. ''Its fantasy'' isn't one but it allows one to come up with ones own reason. In my setting, its usually because they have a skill for it in the case of uncivilised people and the minimum requirements for the military/guard allow them amongst civilised people.
>>43946504

They punched well above their weight. I wouldn't use them as an example.
That said, no nation has ever relied on female warriors. Your insistence that some of them did and that this led to their downfall is ridiculous. The Scythians were not destroyed because they allowed some women to fight in their armies.
>>43946966
>Steppe nomads who spent literally centuries in desolate lands
>The only signs of their existence we have today are burial mounds (which were reserved for their nobility exclusively) and Roman accounts
Yeah, sure sounds like a succesful civilization to me.
>>43946949
Archers need more strength than frontline dudes, except for horse archers. Also other cavalry situations are good places for weaker people, since the horse is providing the power.
TL;DR: Get some elf mongols in your campaign.

It is scary. Scarier than a man, for sure.

So did ones that relied on male "warriors", but I don't see you complaining about them.
>>43946974
War game as in something like Warhammer, or DnD? Because in the case of DnD a fat pair of tits is usually one or two sessions away in the nearby downtime village, and since mages and clerics are vital to any party you'll undoubtedly have a priestess or female caster around in those sinful robes or vestments.
I don't know, I just really like how they did it in The Witcher and wish more people followed that model for representation.

>>43946930
The point is, you could point to any civilization at time, replace 'women' with something else -- for the sake of an example, Aztecs utilizing the mahacuqitl and point and say, 'look how that happened.'
Reasons exist beyond 'women were allowed to fight,' you dumbshit. Aztecs faced off against a militarily smaller force yet were outdone by Spanish collusion with their enemies and the fact they used really fucking strong weapons to wage war. You can say literally the same shit about the Romans conquering the Celts and more.
The point here is this. There are facts beyond who they utilized to wage war that led to defeat. There's more to it than your simplistic view of the matter, that's for fucking sure.
Your sentiment, generally spoken, 'women warriors are unusual, unlikely, and no nation ever heavily relied on them' is true, but throwing that under the blanket of 'if they did, they got rekt' ignores factors beyond this that led to their fall.
>>43947018
>raided both china and the roman empire
>raided
Yeah, that's what happens when you use the same name for a large group of entirely unrelated tribes that live in a gigantic swathe of land reaching from the borders of the Roman Empire to the borders of China.
What next, early 19th century Super Muslims because they raided the coast of Southern Europe before the French pushed their shit in?

>>43947016
>War game as in something like Warhammer, or DnD?
>>43947016
War games refers to Warhammer dude. DnD is a ttrpg. Significant difference.
Personally? I rarely ever play females as non-casters and when I do its following a similar model to Guts from Berserk, just female. But each to their own man.
If its in your group, disagree with it to your hearts content, argue if you want. If its in a media, ignore it or stop consuming the media.
People put warrior women in fantasy, especially since its a trait linked to the ''Old World'' that a lot of fantasy takes inspiration from. Thats how shit be.

>Literally one of them was deployed in an area with actual pitched fighting, all others were only used in skirmishes
Camp women in the Napoleonic era were subject to greater danger than most of these snipers.
>>43946471
Because for a long time in DnD martial classes were completely useless compared with the Spellcasters thus allocating martial classes to females and casters to males was a decent way to keep things more grounded
>>43947066
They also thought women made better machinegunners.

Given how /tg much shits about Tumblr, I almost feel like going there to see what's about.
To ignorant idiots like you, here's a good list of women who fought during history.
http://www.rejectedprincesses.com/women-in-combat
Pic is of Yevdokiya "Frau Black Death" Zavaliy was a marine commander during WW2.
>>43947216
They can get away with it because it takes much less effort for a woman to be conventionally attractive than it does for a man. They pretty much just have to not eat like a hippo, any that even see the inside of a gym are already doing more than most women.
>>43947244
If you actually got this axe you are a bad person who likes stupid axes.
Also, nice try OP. I know that qt warrior women won't make you go away, it'll only make you stronger.
>>43947204
Yup. That's why many guys seem to get erectile dysfunction their first time. The excitement of finally getting to have sex triggers something very similar to an actual fight/flight response, resulting in the rerouting of blood from the penis.I had the luck of my first girlfriend being a very sweet and understanding person. Who also happened to give great blowjobs.
>>43947116

You must have gone to very different universities than I did. When I was in school, a good 30-40% of professors were women, and I was in civil engineering, which only has about 10% female students. Ethnic minorities were also vastly over-represented in the faculty compared to the general population in the area I went to school in.

As a person who used to go on tumblr for about a year, and still sometimes uses it to follow drawfags, it's not actually too bad. Most of the time, depending on what people you follow, you're just going to get mostly pictures of cats or funny jokes or something like that - I also get some miniatures, history stuff, and a lot of 40k pictures. And porn. Sure, it's nearly impossible to avoid the odd SJW thing, but you can minimize them.
One thing you should know, however, is that roleplaying sucks on tumblr. Not only do the people generally suck at roleplaying or want to go lewd, but tumblr isn't really well designed for anything going back and forth. It's meant for seeing something, passing it along, and having no other contact with people. It's also not good for discussion - if you try that, you're really just screaming into the void hoping someone will here you. So usually you gotta go with the mainstream opinion and hope you don't get anonymous haters.

Mommy issues.
A lot of people these days see their mother as providers, but single mothers fail miserably at it. So they create a super mommy fantasy.
>>43946471
it's just a problem with how most people create them. There are a lot of explanations for women to be warriors. Perhaps lack of males where they live; perhaps they all gone to war and is up to the women to protect the place. Perhaps a rebellion, they were just tired of men's shit and killed them all and stablished some kind of Amazon tribe. What is wrong is treat it as normal.

Honestly good luck finding the popular vision of 'tumblr' without actively seeking it out on there. Large portion of those with the attitude are literally 16 or under. Hell I'm a tranny and i still can't find anything but ridiculing the 'die cis scum' shit with any amount of ease. For a place where bullshitting and jokes are the extent of posts, 4chan seems to believe tumblr is incapable of the same.
Also more than that, it's full of porn. We once tried searching nationality tags, so just 'british' or 'italian' etc. all without fail had porn, mixed in with more stereotypical things (food and cars for italian)

It gives a very good addition to the holy warrior. The focus becomes more on being 100% pure and humble about it and then the world shits on them for the fact they're chicks. Male Holy Warriors always have some vice that gets them and otherwise everyone loves them. Going full Mulan about it is also fun.

I know you're bating, plate armor doesn't slow you down, its weight is distributed across your body and will actually make your charge more fearsome and arguably faster. The weight will add to your momentum.
Maille however is a different matter, although it sure as fuck is better than going naked.

No they aren't, the military fucking hates women being given active roles, and the Marines even provided evidence that women make fucking horrible soldiers (their injury rate is something like 60% more than that of males, making them more prone to recovery times and thus less time working).
The military has more women in it to dodge accusations of sexism, not because the women are actually decent soldier material.

I am sure some people in the military dislike the fact, but again, it is increasingly the policy of governments to have more women in active rolls.
Also I am not sure what you mean by decent soldier material. There are lots of roles for soldiers in modern military systems that require different skills. While most women are not in active infantry roles (again for those who have difficulty reading, that itself is changing) there are I am sure plenty of women who are more than capable.

A discussion that has been going from the beginning of time - can /tg/ accept women as warriors?
I don't know if there's enough of a physical difference between the sexes for it to really matter, I'll leave the experts to discuss that. Point is there is nothing other than social norms that prevents women from becoming physically fit and trained for war.
Someone asked if any culture has ever relied on women warriors. To my knowledge, the answer is no, most cultures have either let fighting be something for the men or relied on a combination of male and female warriors. This does not mean that women are incapable of filling military roles. The Scythians have been mentioned. The Dahomey Royal Guard is another example, as is the current Israeli military. And the Amazon Rain Forest is so named because Europeans saw tribeswomen fight alongside the men.
All are examples that go against the commonly observed trend of war as the sole domain of men. Some might say exceptions prove the rule, I would be more inclined to say that such examples prove that there is no truly adequate explanation for not using women warriors other than simple social norms.
>>43946962
Unless, you know, they want to. Because it's make-believe.
Pretty much every female character I've ever used art for--including NPCs when GMing--has been at the least a bit on the cute side unless they're like an old crone or something. And I do the same with the men.
Why? Because it's make believe, so having most people look pretty/handsome/cute/whatever doesn't actually matter that much. Even the stereotypical grumpy scarred veteran has a little jolie laid/laide to them. Why not? So why not make attractive women warriors?
Trying to force this limit or that limit on fantasy as a whole because of how it is here is absurd. If it fits the world in question, it fits the world in question. People who insist fantasy is always super realistic just don't make sense to me. Take it on a setting-by-setting basis.
>>43947977
In Israel they can even be conscripted, yet everyone knows that female batallions are held in reserve while male batallions do the actual fighting. This'd be fine and dandy if the women didn't get constantly praised and glorified to the point where they overshadow their male peers despite doing FUCKING NOTHING. And people wonder why we talk about "easy mode".
This is also why the warrior woman trope pisses me off: it's a reminder of everything real women will never be. This is also why I can't handle waifus, they only serve as a constant reminder of what will never be real.

99% of fa/tg/uys would probably be fantasy farmers rather than adventurer classes anyway. That's assuming that the village reeve didn't intentional get them killed by assigning them shitty tasks.
But instead of playing cobblers, farmers and dungsweeps almost everyone on /tg/ playing a fantasy game is playing some superheroic archetype so why can't women play a superheroic archetype?

When two clans compete for the same survival niche, it becomes a game of capture the woman, they are what the the men are protecting in the conflict fundamentally. A nation is seized once they women are taken by the invaders.

>>43947958
Well yes, they'd make OK fighter pilots due to their low mass and clerks, but neither of those I think the military is particularly eager to do.
And the problem with them in active combat roles on the front is that they simply aren't capable. They can't carry as much weight without getting injured, and they can't lift as much. For example, the crew on a tank or APC is expected to be able to do repairs on it when needed. A female soldier simply struggles to lift the stuff that already strains the males, like tracks. Or dragging a downed friend into cover. Their lack of strength simply endangers everybody else and sinks the unit. The issue is that they AREN'T capable, but they're being put in those roles anyway to make the military look good.
Then there's other issues too. My cousin recently enlisted in the army and went through basic, and he told me NONE of the sergeants yelled at the female recruits out of fear of being charged with harassment. The women basically breezed through shit without getting smacked around much by the Sergeant. Thus you get a soldier who is not prepared at ALL for combat.
>>43946538
>Old people are simply a waste of space and resources
This is historically unsound. The elderly have always had their place in society, and are often viewed as resources for important wisdom.

It depends on the individual. A female classmate of mine became a fighter pilot in the IDF (fighter pilots there actually undergo physical and combat training several levels above that of the average infantryman, though not quite so much as special forces infantry. They do get special forces training, but only parts of it). Rare, but happens.

They're still extreme. And in any modern army, not just the IDF (though I'd imagine with their situation and history they'd stress it even further) combat pilots are required to undergo some actual, hardcore SF survival, combat, and evasion training. If I had to put the physical demands of training to be a combat pilot (the demands of the actual job, like in most combat roles, might actually be significantly lighter) on a scale, I'd say they definitely beat being a marine, but don't get so high as those of, say, Navy SEALs or Rangers (or whatever the Israeli equivalent of those is).

It is a bad thing.

IDF pilot training is mostly comparable to that of their elite infantry units (not special forces, not grunts), with the exception of survival and captivity training, which are among the harshest in the IDF. Captivity training for Israeli pilots, in particular, is considered among the harshest in the world, which given some of the shit some Russian soldiers go through I'd say's got to mean some pretty intense shit. The Israelis do NOT fool around with the chance of their pilots being captured and broken after the Arad incident.

Depends on your definition of "front lines". At the moment, I don't think any women serve in assault roles their. They are, however, known to serve in scouting roles, as well as patrols, border guard (which in Israel gets into some fucking BRUTAL situations on a near-daily basis), skirmish and marksmanship. They also serve in the air force, armored and artillery corps, and on board navy ships. Not sure if there're women on IDF submarines yet, but I do know they're TECHNICALLY allowed.

But nowhere near as bad when referencing female olympic lifters since steroids and blood enhancement is fucking rife ESPECIALLY with females.
So if you want to stop being a mongoloid and read what was said, the argument against stupid shit like this is that even a female olympic lifter will only possess levels of strength equal to that of an average athletic male, athletic meaning he isn't fucking overweight as shit and maybe hits the gym 2 a week.

I think it was a logistical issue. This only ever comes around when people mention Stalingrad.
Reinforcements were mustered so fast and thrown withouth the logistics to follow. At least I guess it makes sense, should probably check on records.

Yeah, no. They provide recon support, but if one of them actually gets shot in the head by a Palestinian, there would be national outrage.
>>43949514
Look, not even that guy. Hell, I'd go as far as to say I detest women. Nevertheless, don't underestimate Palestinians. They're not poor peasants who throw rocks. They have kalashnikovs and, more dangerously, IEDs. They can really fuck your shit.
Hell, last month eight poor immigrants killed 130+ people in one of the most modern nations in the world with one of the most well-trained militaries.
Kebabs can fuck your shit up when they decide you've offended their feelings.

You're missing the fact that combat troops being women is a liability.
>>43949589
it's always just been this thread
>>43949436
Because if the first 1000 conscripts, 500 of which were expected to die because frozen dead bodies literally were often used as makeshift sandbags, didn't manage to kill all the 100 or so krauts, the next 1000 were expected to loot what dead krauts they could find or take guns from some other dead body.
>>43949461
>What's Soviet propaganda
In truth, female "snipers" were a gimmick, never saw the kind of combat you'd expect a knight to and were vastly outperformed by their male counterpart when not being pitted against conscript tier soldiers
>>43949462
They did have a surplus well AFTER WW2 because Stalin found after WW1 that a conscripted military doesn't work if you can't even arm a fifth of it.
>>43949554
Ammunition was scarce for any conscript. Soldiers got okay supplyment and Officers saw the best. For the most part though, Nazi weaponry was common place because German logistics was pretty good up towards the end of the war and when Hitler forgot about Russian winter.
>>43949454
Mixed unit casualties are more than double than straight male units, last I read, with many general and high ranking officers seeing it as a necessary disaster if they're going to have a powerful enough standing army.
>>43949568
Oh yeah no, I'm not saying that the palestinians don't have guns or don't know how to fight.
They just don't have MBTs, air support, artillery and IFV's.
I'd have more respect for the IDFags if they didn't flex their muscles by killing civillians.
>>43949589
That whole discussion is retarted and has nothing to do with the thread.
>>43949614
What does that have to do with the role of the "Caracal Battalion"? Because as far as I can see, they patrol the border in Israel, which looks fairly dangerous.
>>43949598
There's an ogre hiding in this picture. Can you find her?
>>43949514
You ever been in the middle of a serious riot? Not just "police shooting tear gas into the crowd", "police resorting to deadly force because otherwise they'll be overwhelmed and killed". This is what Israeli border patrol duty used to be like until very recently, except the "rioters" weren't pissed off entitled college kids angry about their McDonald's job, they were angry fucking Palestinians. I don't know what you think about Palestinians, but these guys are hardcore. That entire part of the middle east is hardcore. You make fun of "thrown rocks" but when some fucked up crazy ass raghead hurls a brick at you from several dozen meters away, that shit can kill you dead instantly, through a helmet. And that's literally just the bricks. Not the homemade slings and atlatls, which are plenty deadly. Not the molotov cocktails, or the knives, or the axes. When a hundred fucking dudes run at you screaming with axes and you aren't allowed to shoot back at them, military body armor isn't going to do you much good.
And this is just legitimate rioters, not Hamas dudes with firearms and explosives who would regularly sneak in through the tunnels until the last ceasefire. I patrolled alongside the Mexican border. We've seen shit you wouldn't believe. And I believe the Israelis have it way, way worse.
>>43949476
Uh, isn't it obvious?
>>43947001
Isn't fucking armor at all, unless wearing a leather shirt and belts suddenly can stop... anything really. She's also wearing retarded platform heel boots and has pointless spiked armor on her thighs that won't protect much and are more of a danger to herself.
>>43947233
I accidentally quoted, but the pauldrons are fairly stupid and her maille armor isn't really that good considering she's completely cut off the sleeves (muh soup I take it?) and has it cut as a thigh window instead of the cut going up between the legs, meaning the flanks of her thighs are exposed. This isn't good for a horsewoman.
>>43947244
Scale armor is open on the breasts to expose the sternum with only leather covering it (fucking why), is pointlessly cut so it flows BEHIND her and leaves her pelvis and thighs exposed, and I don't even know if there's scale armor on her lower torso either as it's hidden by that stupid corset thing. Proper scale is the same size as a hauberk and covers just as much.
>>43949634
Wait, just because they're a guerrilla force means they're civilians? Are you stupid?
>>43949653
Where? All I see is a bunch of people acting weird and a very cute dark skinned girl.
>>43949634
Yeah, unlike those noble americans and russians, who are renown for fighting guerrillas without killing civilians.
Like, I agree with you, but don't act like Israel's the only one who does this.
>>43949634
>They just don't have MBTs, air support, artillery and IFV's.
Neither does the Israeli border patrol. The IDF employs those during wartime (what they insist on calling "Operations") but during the day-to-day their soldiers are under some very strict orders regarding the use of lethal force. It leads to the absurd situation where Israeli soldiers, who are infamous worldwide for their brutality and use excessive force, often end up unable to respond to situations the soldiers of practically any other western nation would shoot their way out of with extreme prejudice (and be seen as justified in) because the IDF is too afraid of exactly that kind of public coverage. Twenty Israeli soldiers could die to thrown bricks and the world would never even hear about it, but it's enough that a single Palestinian gets accidentally shot in response and the world media comes pointing fingers and giving the entire military chain there a headache.
>>43949659
I've been in a food riot in North Africa, I know how fucking violent these people, I'm one of them. I don't approve of these teenage idiots running at armed soldiers or trying to get their martyr-boner on.
The problem is that they are allowed to shoot back, and they do so. With full force and sometimes heavy weapons.
We all know what escalation is, and the IDF sucks at it. Someone gets shanked and boom, it's martial law and full on military patrols with heavy armor.
It's all a waste of life man.

I don't know if you know this, but people can die if they are stabbed. And often times, lethal force is met with lethal force.
>>43949634
>I'd have more respect for the IDFags if they didn't flex their muscles by killing civillians.
With war in the Middle East, the line between civillian and enemy combatant is unclear until they start opening fire. Their soldiers don't parade around in uniforms.
>>43949677
>Unless wearing a leather shirt and belts suddenly can stop... anything, really.
I notice that for these examples you seem to consider any armor that appears to be made out of leather to be the same as no armor at all. Why is that?
>>43949740
Of course it's a waste of life, but Israel's neighbors all want to see it wiped off the map oen way or another, and it has to deal with a bunch of people who don't fear death but welcome it and would like to take as many Israelis as possible down with them. Waste of life or not, the moment the Israelis stop fighting they're fucking gone.

These are the parts we know about, because these are the parts foreign media tends to cover. It's scandalous, it's juicy, it's controversial and it serves political motives on both sides. While it's true that the IDF tends to escalate things quickly, you need to understand that for every such incident we in the US hear about, there are quite a few where border guard (it's a separate branch of the Israeli "armed forces", although they don't call them that) troopers can basically just stand and piss in their riot armor and wait for authorization to begin shooting while ineffectually waving clubs around and waiting to be molotov'd. One of the reasons these guys are infamous (even WITHIN Israel) for being psychotically brutal is the frustration that comes from often being "leashed" in situations like these (it doesn't help that the Israelis knowingly fill their border guard with the type of people who in every other country would grow up to be gangsters and serial killers). I have friends there, and I've visited the place. The stories of what happens when border guardsmen get their hands on Palestinians and think their officers aren't watching are NOT pretty.
More to the point, they don't have access to most of the hardware the IDF proper has. They're meant to man checkpoints, quell riots, arrest suspects and police villages, not raze Gaza do the ground. Assault rifles? Sure. But the Palestinians have those, to. No smart bombs and countermeasures.
>>43946675
Literally the only good looking girl ITT.
>>43949824
See that's the funny thing. A large number of palestinians who've lived throught the occupation don't think that anymore. All they want is to be able to go home to their kids withouth having to cross two checkpoints. To open a small business withouth being pressured by the Hamas to stash weapon for them.
Most of these people want to live withouth the fear of an attack by either side.
Syria has some bigger issues, Jordan and Egypt gave up on the idea a long-time ago
There's only Iran left, and that doesn't matter because that's comparable to how Russia and the US were at each other's throat during the Cold War
There's a reason why the "Third Intifada" isn't happening right now. Because parents don't want to see their kids get shot and plastered everywhere as martyrs.
Same goes for Israelites, they don't want ot live in fear of a rocket attack or of being shanked by some teenage kid who saw his friend get shot.

If that were true, the majority of women would never get laid.

>Single fathers do not have such a negative impact
Do you think that might be because single fathers have to make an active choice to become single parents, whereas single mothers just have to decide not to get rid of the child they already have (and given motherhood instincts are going to be on overdrive, most of them will keep the child regardless of how much they actually want to be a parent)?
>>43951127
Not that guy, but pretty much. To become a father, a man has to be a fucking saint. To become a mother, a woman just has to cry in court.
You'd almost think that'd be a reason to overhaul the legal system, but then again logic is a cishet patriarchal structure to keep the black transwomyn down.
>>43950768
I didn't say that capability was required to BE attractive.
Just that capable people are especially attractive.
I give no shits about plausability and I like scantily clad warrior women. I find it far more pathetic that people think that their way of playing pretend is better than anothers.
