Mal, you're going to call me a hypocrite, actually read what I said. Also, have the gonads to actually call me out by name.
"This same female" has no issue with sexuality. She has no problems with sexuality in games or art. The problem arises when characters have little to no diversity in design, like when the only way women are portrayed is within a certain degree of conventional attractiveness. With very little exception, all of the ladies of the League are overly skinny white girls with giant breasts, often with schmexxy voiceovers and oodles of exposed skin.
THAT is why it's upsetting when they sexualize a non-sexual female champ.
If you enjoy a sexual skin, good for you. As you so astutely noted, I have too. My problem lies with the developers who refuse to step out of the comfort zone of the male gaze. I am allowed to enjoy something while simultaneously viewing it critically.
Unless, of course, this female is not allowed to voice her opinion on something that matters a great deal to her.
