Yes that Anita. Anita Sarkeesian. After she complained about a female Mandalorian having somewhat titty armor (and yeah, I do think she's overreacting in this instance, but the reaction to her overreacting will be even worse).

I'M ABOUT TO GO FERAL. I AM READY GO COMMIT GAMERCIDE.

    I recently worked in a museum summer workshop thing where visitors could try on a replica of a knight's chestplate and women had no problem wearing it whatsoever.

      interesting. still, unless there's concept art that emerges showing that the female mandalorian armor was specifically sexed up for the show, then the most likely explanation for it looking the way it does is that the costume department took the actress' measurements and matched the costume to her.

      Were you taking surveys on the women that tried it? Excuse me miss, how does this make your breasts feel? Is this uncomfortable on your nipples?

        Actually yes lol. As part of the workshop we were testing mobility in medieval armor, so visitors who volunteered (both men and women) ran around and performed various exercises in plate and then made a rather detailed report (what movements they could and couldn't do, whether the armor chafed at some places, how quickly they tired etc.). Medieval plate armor was actually surprisingly spacious as a lot of padding went underneath.
