Aye, I was about to say that, but I had a feeling that this thread was already striding the lines of political commentary that is forbidden by the rules.

It's an honest mistake, and I, myself, didn't find it offensive. Just ironic, is all.

I did not like the implication that females = weak and therefore you can only have one girl on the team, since she'd be somewhat of an oddity. Because having two strong female characters would be completely preposterous!
I understand that yellow has become more of a feminine colour though, I'm fine with that and I don't have a problem with them marketing a show aimed at boys at boys and leaving out a second girl on the team for that reason, but that's not what was said. Chalking it up to "cultural differences" doesn't make it any better either. |

But the first comment about femininity makes me think the second explination was just one of those bullshit "Sorry if I offended anyone" apologies. |
