No one is jumping on you in “aggro” as you put it. That is a projection I think, because you are very impassioned about this subject. That being said please take the gutter politics and virtue signalling elsewhere. They are not logical here, and are more attempts to villify players because you have no logical reason behind your argument.
You say “Tru Horde” has always been a boys club, yet I distinctly remember Garona being in Warcraft 1 and a very independent female with 2 decades of character development.
No. What you are doing here is trying to dominate the conversation by making a issue where none existed. I will not concede or flee from arguments like that, because arguments like this need to be fought and shut down with cold logic and honest statements.
Case and point. Sylvanas midriff is exposed. A supposed issue, but one which only became one when people wanted to turn it into one. The same applies to her gender as well. The issue I take with Sylvanas (and I believe so too do many others) lies in these factors:
-She has used chemical warfare on a wide scale
-Engaged in genocide on a wide-scale.
-Has a blatant disregard for her allies, raising them as needed with no free will.
-Is now is making multiple deals that are unlikely to benefit anyone save her.
All of this goes counter to her original purpose and the nature of the Forsaken.
It isn’t her gender that makes a person dislike her. It’s her nature and how she is portrayed. Blame the authors, not the players if you dislike the package you get. I find that reinventing Sylvanas was a bad idea. She only became hyper offended about being called Lass when it became a problem for the author, much like how Tyrande’s Silence became a problem for others.
She only became a rallying cry on the need for powerful females, when the powers that be decided to turn her into a undead equivalent of that. That is something that ‘should’ be represented, and I respect the Developers for being inclusive.
Unfortunately instead of achieving it as they did with Queen Talanji; the writers disregarded that Sylvanas had too much baggage to fill that role plausibly. So now she’s been recast her as a mustache twirling nitwit who lacks any poise or restraint, flies off handle when she doesn’t get her way, and kills anyone who disagrees with her openly and without any sense of guile or cunning.
