    Question:

    Is this making handbags manlier, or swords more feminine?

    Damnable cultural indoctrination. Okay, yeah, that looks feminine to me, but it's not because the color scheme and artistic choices (e.g., floral patterns) are inherently feminine, it's because society says so!

    Or something. Look, I took gender studies in college and do my best not to instinctively assign gender to inanimate objects.

    Neither. If my girlfriend sees this, it's making my wallet less heavy. Does that count?

    The pirate hat is the sexiest hat in the game and I will never take it off ever.

    It looks like icing. Icing is delicious and beloved by both genders.



    THIS is a girly sword:

    What does feminine or masculine even mean? Their just stupid terms people use to define things because people feel the need to label everything. This only leads to people degrading others based on their perception of objects. Shut up about it and grow up.

    Yeah.. We're actually being whimsical. I'm pretty confident no-one here actually means any of this.
    Other than swiftlovebird's girlfriend definitely wants that swordbag.

    If I'm honest, I do too, but it just doesn't go with my shoes.
    Plus, I basically HAVE a handbag already. (you can call it a messenger bag all you want, it's still totally a handbag. /is fine with that)

    PLZ DUN DEGRAD ME FOAR HAVIN WAT IZ CLERLY A HANDBAG DDDD:

    Oh. I had TOTALLY forgotten that guy..

    Yeah, we ALL object to that game.

    OH HO HO~!
    /insert pun regarding characters of that "game" and the word ho.

    (It was "reversal" because the last time I saw anything about that game, it was only female characters, and thus, a reversal of the norm. Now they have a super manly woman.)

    Get out

    On topic, I do think the butterflies on that dash are a bit overkill, but besides that I don't really see any other really apparently girly gear.

    You know what's weird about gender based things? Action figures/dolls.
    They're pretty much the same thing, yet viewed in such a weird way.

    NEVER.

    Seriously though, it's a sword that requires zero upper body strength to cut through pretty much ANYTHING, would easily fit in a handbag, and weighs practically nothing.

    If we go by "fit for purpose", then this has all the features of an item that is perfect for women.

    This, this right here. Everything I own needs to be the epitome of pink, with an added "princess-y" feel.

    I'm going to be the pinkest, princessiest sstabby sstabber the worlds ever did see. That being said, one of these days I will find the butterfly dash. It looks lovely, but me and techs apparently don't live in the same galaxy.

    Hm. I'm quite vocal about my murderous tendencies in this game, and I've stated previously that I am the Prettiest Princess™...

    I've got my eye on you.. >___>
