This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.
The RPGPundit's Own Forum Rules
This part of the site is controlled by the RPGPundit. This is where he discusses topics that he finds interesting. You may post here, but understand that there are limits. The RPGPundit can shut down any thread, topic of discussion, or user in a thread at his pleasure. This part of the site is essentially his house, so keep that in mind. Note that this is the only part of the site where political discussion is permitted, but is regulated by the RPGPundit.

Not very realistic - needs bigger breasts.

Why?


It's a better picture than that prom picture- I'm still hoping it's a hoax.

Thing is, the art style behind it is actually very competent- professional, even- but it somehow lacks life.
I'm 55. My profile won't record this. It's only right younger members know how old I am.

Assuming one needs a WHY to think it needs bigger breasts.

Here is why this forum tends to be so stupid. Many people here think Joe Biden is "The Left", when he is actually Far Right and every US republican is just an idiot.

Speaking of which, in reply to the prom picture earlier (and I wish I could forget) notice how this one seems more "real" in its way:

They don't look as though they had a whiff of the Joker's laugh gas.

What in the ever lovin' fuck is the species of that critter on the right? It is painfully obviously female, but a female what?
"Meh."

They do seem to ape My Little Pony. The creepy fanfic actually.

Do you even want to know?  I am just asking because I certainly don't want to know what that is.  I like to sleep at night.

Looks like a little bit like one of those shitty "baby dragon" resin statures they sell at pipe world only with an HH cup size and a wig.

Someone tell me that’s just somebody’s deviant art project, and not actually going to wind up in a WOTC product.

As to what that creature is, I can only as that it’s very creepy and weird. It’s in some kind of uncanny valley territory in part because it doesn’t really fit with the rest of the image. It’s almost like it was worked on by two different artists.

It has turquoise hair so it's obviously some sort of social justice warrior.

I've heard this expressed as an idea before, but I'm skeptical. What is the extent of the evidence for this? Another idea I've heard expressed is that women tend to prefer men to be dark, while men prefer women to be light. The implication is that this is a genetically-programmed universal, but that is quite difficult to prove.

I have noticed that in nearly every culture where there is any variation in skin color at all, there is a preference for women with lighter skin, sometimes men too. To the degree that women will smear their face with layers of white makeup. People from the Indian subcontinent (where skin color varies a lot) can sometimes come across as rabidly racist against themselves, something my wife has run into numerous times. One exception is the modern Western world where having a tan is quite fashionable, although it held true even there until fairly recently ("fair" meaning both light and pretty).

One hypothesis that would explain this both in the West and elsewhere is that it's linked to having resources and being upper class. Before, the upper classes were the only ones that didn't have to work the fields, and so they were lighter in skin color. More recently more people work indoors, but the upper classes have more resources to go on vacations and spas and such, and so they show off their tan instead.

There is also the idea that skin color is more important in women because vitamin D is important for milk production. Maybe there is something to it, but it's hard to demonstrate beyond "it's the best explanation we got".

Excepting for the cultures that obsess on having a tan of course.

Tanning as a culturally desirable thing is a blip historically.

To the extent that a preference for lighter skin exists the root cause probably lies with selection for fertility markers. Lighter skin is a youth marker, and hormones like testosterone & estrogen impact melanin production.
