TF2 is about soldiers repeatedly fighting over pieces of land. Not very "feminine".

  TF2 is also composed of blatant caricatures of various cultures. Scout is a New Yorker / Jersey type, Engineer is from Texas, Sniper is an Australian, Medic is a mad German Scientist, etc. etc. Its not even subtle about it. I dare say, if TF2 tried to make a female character, it would have to be sexist as all hell just to fit in with the "feel" of the game.

    Are saying that all men are a "racist" stereotype, so if there was a woman it would have to be a "sexist" stereotype? How does that make sense? Why can't one of the "racist" stereotypes be a woman? Just because a woman is not a man, it doesn't mean that you need to add something to repeat that they are different. There are other differences between the characters in TF2 other than their nationality that do not get their own sterotypes. Why is it necessary that as soon as a woman appears, sexism is necessary? Why isn't the reverse true? Do you think that it may have something to do with male being considered a "default" gender?

      Is it sexist that Touhou is a 100% female cast? There are 133 Touhou characters spread over 13+ main games, and several side games, and it has remained a 100% female cast throughout. I'm a male gamer, and I don't mind. (in particular, because the gameplay is so damn awesome).

    Ok, good point.

  This is not about something being "feminine" or not. A lot of people will say that War is not feminine, but it still doesn't make sense that there were no women in CoD.
