00:00There's this trend recently about hairstyles for women in RPGs and how they're all so bad.
00:07I've seen that on TikTok. It's so good because they're all just like,
00:11bloop, bloop, bloop, bloop, bloop, and it's weird that those are not exaggerations either.
00:16Those are the hairstyles you could pick.
00:18It's like a normal half up, half down, a bun, it's all got weird pieces coming up everywhere.
00:24It's just interesting the way that even when you as a player have agency to make your own woman
00:30and make her the kind of woman you want her to be, you're still limited in the mostly male developer's
00:37vision of what that is.
00:39With the hairstyles, it's just funny that knowing that many studios, according to stats, the majority of game devs are
00:47male.
00:48When they're like, we're going to finally let our women players branch out and do their own thing,
00:53and they're like, what do women like? I don't know, like five, like, ponytails on their head?
00:59That's something cool. Like, they don't know how to relate to the female experience.
01:04Like, it's almost like they're creating a fantasy and like what female empowerment looks like.
01:11It's like, oh my god, I wish I felt empowered by five different types of ponytails.
01:16But it sounds heavy on my head.
01:18Yeah.
