Things to Bitch About Regarding the Au Ra Checklist
☑ Dimorphism
☑ Character Creator
☑ Tails
☑ Horns
☑ Lack of Ass
☑ Kawaii Desu
☑ Scales
Hmmm...What other stupidly petty things can we add to the list?
...Oh, OH! THEY HAVE SKIN! SKIN.
HOW FUCKING DARE YOU, YOSHIDA?
Alright, in all seriousness, this is just the Miqo'te arguments with a new coat of paint and scales. Don't tell me you're not drawing comparisons.
Honestly, this thread has been moving along fine without any added cursing and negativity. Zyrsticue may not like Au Ra very much but he/she still managed to create a thread that was fun and speculative. No one's been negative. I haven't been a fan of their designs either but I have still been looking forward to having my character meet them in game and to see what kind of dynamic they bring to RP. Some of my friends are very excited for them and I am happy they get something new to attach to.
On that list, it's probably the Dimorphism and Kawaii Desu that get to me. I just think it's an unfair and sexist representation for SE to make the men big and intimidating and the women small and kawaii. (and still, that is even okay because you can still enjoy something, even if you don't like the way it is portrayed!) You don't have to agree. You might really like the dimorphism and really like the contrast of fierce men with cute ladies who can probably still stab you anyway. I can expect that people will adamantly disagree with my opinions and that's fine.
But I don't think you should call out my opinion as being 'petty' or 'lesser' than your own. It's just after all, an opinion and we've been having fun speculating in this thread. No one's knocking them.
