@largishcat: hey you wanna point me to a single post about dumb lady armor that DOESNT go literally “not only is this SEXIST it wouldn’t even work!” because you’re making it seem like people are concentrating on ~accuracy~ while pretending that boob armor is NOT sexist and let me tell you that is very much not the case. plus its very VERY common for fuckboy nerds to plead ~accuracy~ when defending their sexist media, is there a particular reason why you object to people refuting that

Me: Really, cause I’ve seen many.  I’ve also seen a fuck ton of lady armor depicted as practical that simply fucking isn’t.for the aforementioned reasons.  Also given the history of military attire, it’s also just an absurd, ahistorical, incoherent argument.  Like it’s just a bad fucking argument because (as someone who is really into costume history) it’s simply not true.  Like they don’t actually care about accuracy or everything wouldn’t be covered in spikes that prevent you from raising your arm all the way.  Incidentally, the arguments against boob plate being workable and protective are… frankly bad (as I explain here).  I just hate the modern “utilitarianism” aesthetic invading fucking fantasy art and being outlandishly misapplied to historical periods.  I don’t want practical armour for women, I want armour that is every bit as spicy, horned, and over the top badass as the dudes get (or dudes in tiny leather booty shorts, either is acceptable to me).  IAlso I have never seen a nerd boy plead accuracy on cleavage armour, ever.

but boob plat is totally unworkable and would totally get you killed you guis (DO YOU SEE THE MAN TITTY ON THAT THING?)
