I love watching Doll Customization videos but woof have I noticed some less than... eh, desirable behavior.
Not going to spefically name anyone because I'm sure they don't even realize they're doing this, but it sure makes me raise my eyebrow.
First is how feminine ≠ women. They were going to make a doll with the feminine prompt but didn't want to make a dude with that prompt because feminine is inherently... womanly?
Which is... strange. Considering when they got a masculine prompt they decided to do a women character. So.. If feminine can't be for men, then why can masculine be for women? (I will touch on this in a bit)
I've also picked up on some questionable ideas on what makes a character soft vs. masculine. While designing the aforementioned feminine male character, they said how they wanted to make him look soft and sweet and precious.
.. Right after saying how they wanted to make his skin tone very light.
Which I would've shrugged off as weird, but the fact they made their masculine woman a black woman is.. eh.
Having those two sentiments paired with each other is just yikes.
Like I said, I doubt they're doing this maliciously, but I do hope it's at least somewhat pointed out to them what their words imply.
