I don't want to hear another fucking peep out of a G*mer nerd that women in games aren't hot anymore or that Marvel is "woke".

Even then, depending on the artist, the only difference is their haircuts sometimes.

It's really really boring.

I get that they want them to be attractive but women don't all need the same bodies to be sexy, there is not just one type of sexy. But someone in charge for multiple decades must have pushed for every woman to be one specific appearance because it was their preference or some shit.

It really is. I think it comes less from them wanting them to be attractive and more that artists tend to just develop a particular "style" with how they draw people, and a lot of the "superstar artists" of the 90s basically only had like 1-2 body types they could draw for men, and only 1 for women. And because the biggest names in the industry would always draw women like that, all the other artists would emulate them.
