Oh yeah, sorry. We should discuss her playstyle and how good she is, when we know nothing about her. :|yeah because most of the post are ONLY about her looks

And from what I understand SlayerS has regular team/clan tournaments to decide what players get to be part of the 'team' rather than the 'clan' (I remembe reading about some of their players talking about this in interviews, correct me if I'm wrong), so I could only imagine that she had to of made it into the team to get on the bench, which can't be that easy. (or she might have been there just for today because she was only just announced? I dunno.) Wait until she actully plays a game, so you actually have something to criticize. | ||

Regardless of how well she can actually play, this is clearly a publicity move. That in itself wouldn't be too bad but: 1. It appears like a demonstration of equal opportunities and emancipation while 2. subversively reinforcing chauvinistic stereotypes by associating womens success with their appeal to men. So it's not just sexist, it even disguises itself as the opposite. It puts womens success at the mercy of their appeal towards men, which is one of the most subtle and unfair prejudices towards women. And you cannot tell me that her looks and appeal to men did not play a role in her recruitment. They could have picked thousands of other girls. And if one tries to argue that one has to pick from the thousands of girls by some aspect, then making it her looks reinforces the picture of the dominance of male interest whether you want it or not. The people here saying that her looks are not important are making it even worse, because they are acting as if this issue did not actually exist. Even if she plays well, it still reinforces the stereotype that only women who appeal to men can be successful. And the same is true for TossGirl. You should rethink your enthusiasm. Sex appeal isn't the only appeal. If a grandmaster girl came around, men would like her even if she wasn't a looker. | ||

Damn son, she is cute and all but she looks way to young, it would just feel wrong (even tho shes 22). And besides MMA did in fact train mma before going pro, so prepare to get you ass kicked if she begins screaming :D. | ||
