The ulterior motive is gold, land, prestige, and/or the favor of a monarch, you moranus.

Are you implying that lady knights aren't all lesbians?

The only time a lady knight isn't a massive dyke is if she met the only man knight that can put the lesbian in her place, or she has sworn celibacy.

That's a guy. The artist just draws really feminine men and armor. There's a picture right next to it of a clearly male knight with a buzz mohawk wearing slender, shapely suit of plate. His females also have the typical bright, clear skin and plastic surgery perfect looks of South Korea/2D.

That's actually kind of sad. I experienced huge gains when I started at about 120-140 lbs and hit 200 lbs. Are you a female by chance? If you're a guy you should have gotten a bigger chest and arms/forearms by at least a little bit, unless you started out huge already, which can't be true since you couldn't even lift any weights on the bar. Maybe you shed fat so you seem thinner? Or you simply got used to your gradual gains.

Male, natural t-rex mode. Even ate a balanced, relatively healthy bulking diet. When I realized how far I'd gotten and how little of it showed up on my body, it was really disheartening. I didn't expect huge beefy gains by then, but I at least wanted my arms to look normal. Haven't lifted in about a year and fell back into my lower-calorie eating habits so I've pretty much lost most of what gains I had. Trying to get back on the horse though.

Dude's shin-length coat will impede his movement, even more because he's got the bottom belt buckled. His female counterpart has less material to obstruct her stride and she made the smart choice to leave that bottom belt unbuckled.

The speed of drawing your sword is greater than the speed of flipping your gun around and winding up a swing to deliver a blow capable of the degree of gore created.

Its funny when you think about the fact that men tend to do things many times without even thinking about it - like getting in danger to save a damsel cause she is there.
And then you compare it to women who as a gender are Known for -always- having ulterior motives. Quite literally, when a woman does something, its because she wants it to lead to X other things.

you know what? I kinda wish more d&d settings didn't simply accept women warriors so easily. Then I could rp as a woman who's trying to live outside of the role society has determined for her gender. Instead, I'd just roll up a female character, the dm might notice it says 'f' next to gender on the character sheet, and then we'd move on to mindlessly killing some goblins.

It also sort of trivializes all of the historical women who dressed as men in order to serve in the military.

I understand it. It's not like the table top community needs any more reasons to make women feel unwelcome without actually playing in the "-4 str setting". Oh well.

The hard thing about being a female elf knight is being taken seriously as a knight by men and as an elf by humans in general.

Humans act like we elves are good for only one thing. Fetching firewoord, I mean.

Considering we're on 4chan, ladyknight is most likely a literal translation of "onna kishi", which Chinese cartoons use to refer to female knights. "Lady" is an official title after all, used in place of "sir" for female knights IRL.

The term "ladyknight" makes perfect sense.

I totally disagree. Even in apocryphal IRL history you have people like Tomoe Gozen, Khawlah bint al-Azwar, Hervor, Olga of Kiev, Pingyang, Isabel of Conches, Khutulun, etc.

While these individuals are often not knights or do not live in a society with knights as we know them in the West, they're of noble rank and either fight or command armed combat. There are plenty of historical analogues (often of ambiguous historicity, sure) who could be considered/inspiration for knightly characters.

Looking through the Wikipedia section on her military escapades, the only actual things she seems to have done are: Carry a flag
Come up with a successful plan once
Warn a duke about a cannonball
Get hit in the head by a rock and live
Send threatening letters

If this had been done by an ordinary French soldier, ie a man who hadn't been claiming he was hearing the voice of God, nobody would have given a shit.

My favorite author says it best, really.

> The strategy of alluring a sexually aggressive woman by coy and amorous teasing and batting the eyelashes, so that she throws the man over her shoulder like a female Tarzan and carries him off to a floral bower for dangerously passionate ravishment makes the man weak and comical, a joke akin to Bugs Bunny wearing a dress.
> There is a reason why Superman rescuing Lois Lane remains a charming and beloved center of their myth even after more than half a century, whereas no one remembers or cares to remember any scenes of Wonder Woman rescuing Steve Trevor. The stark fact is that a healthy woman admires and should admire strength in her man, including when such strength sweeps her up in his arms. She should be delighted even if she is offended when Tarzan throws her over his shoulder, or her bridegroom carries her across the threshold. A man should not admire physical strength in women, because this is not a characteristic that differentiates the sexes for him.
> The sexes are opposite, and culture should exaggerate the complimentary opposition by artifice in order to increase our joy in them, including artifices of dress and speech: when women dress and speak and act like men, some joy is erased from both sexes.

Well Joan of Arc did lead her army in 13 battles, having a decisive victory in 9 of them. I'm curious why people actively try to undermine her contributions, like not even begrudgingly accepting she actually planned, positioned, and led armies. Everytime I see her brought up in /tg/ the her contributions go from her being a knight, to being a commander, to just carrying a banner and nothing more. Even though the people of her era, ally and enemy acknowledged her as a soldier and commander. I've never seen any other military commander so scrutinized by /tg/

You're getting upset by a single thread on a Chucklefuck Macaroni Art Website. Do you want a female knight motivated by justice?

>It was other people's armies
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joan_of_Arc#Rise
>The extent of her actual military participation and leadership is a subject of debate among historians. On the one hand, Joan stated that she carried her banner in battle and had never killed anyone,[39] preferring her banner "forty times" better than a sword;[40] and the army was always directly commanded by a nobleman, such as the Duke of Alençon for example. On the other hand, many of these same noblemen stated that Joan had a profound effect on their decisions since they often accepted the advice she gave them, believing her advice was Divinely inspired.[41]
Calling her just a standardbearer and nothing else is a gross simplification.

There are accounts of her directing her army, dictating the placements of troops and cannons and prioritizing targets. Sure her tactics aren't subtle, or Subutai tier but she was infact the commander and leader of the armies afforded to her by either Charles VII or her own volunteers.

To be fair, Brienne is fuck-ugly. Like, in the books, she's so ugly that Jaime can bathe naked with her and feel no flicker of interest. (While he does get aroused when Pia is around in Book 5, even though she's had her teeth smashed out.)
