      Like Fabio? Pretty much any depiction of a barbarian is some muscular dude wearing only a loincloth and his broadsword.

      I’d rather we stop sexualizing characters altogether. If anything, it’s silly and makes it more difficult to take them seriously.

        I think there is space for both sexualized and non-sexualized characters, as long as they are treated evenly. This is entertainment, they don’t need to be all business serious.

        I dread that in trying to be perfectly respectable, the medium might err to the side of prudishness and sexual repression.

      After a woman says she doesn’t like being sexualized, your response is to not worry because the sexualization of women will continue, but you’ll start to sexualize men, too?
