I'm only guessing, but I could imagine Wax is hinting at the inclusion here being, in practice, more so a form of exclusion. That is, the women are brought in more as exotic objects, the others if you will, not so much as legitimate players. If this is the case, then it may be argued that it only further demarcates professional BW as a men's field in which women are seen as outsiders or curiosities. The motivations may be good, if it as an effort to promote women as equals in BW, but in practice BW is such a hypermasculine form of culture that it might well turn out ugly. The ugly turn of events may be the spectators interpreting the women's games as secondary, as circus, as a form of sexual entertainment etc. ("Omg hot girl!") Of course it'd be much more desirable an outcome if what happens is that women are empowered to attend the masculine field and as a response the field changes, too. One form of changing the masculine field of BW may be abstaining from treating (here, elsewhere) the women players as if they were objects (of desire etc.) and more as player-subjects in their own right. We'll see. | ||

"On May 7th, 2012, KeSPA informed the public via their website that Movie had transferred from CJ Entus to Team 8 per his request, after a poor performance in the 2011-2012 Proleague Season 1" | ||

Indeed MBC HERO, AirForce Ace, WeMade FOX, and Hwaseung OZ were all shown being part of the league in Britney's original stream. Only reason I can think why they were removed is lack of participating players to fill those rosters. | ||
