Well, he sure looks like a guy with an IQ of 75 whos only triumph was becomin an assistant manager at a Dollar store.
I know it's 7 years ago but this looks exactly like how I'd imagine he looks.

🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
Feels like to compensate for Space Marines being all men, every piece of anciliary media I see has girlboss guard officers and commissars.
It's a bit humdrum.
"In the grim darkness of the far future, you are constantly scolded by women."
Fuck me, that's too dark.
Can't I just get my skull reaved like the old days?

Yeah but every codex looking like a Tom’s of Finland catalog gets old after a while, I’m not sure what the happy middle is.
If you're buying wargaming supplements to wank off to, I can see why that might be a concern, but there's literally three whole factions that consist of distilled fetish material already.
Don't make me use the coom broom.
Besides, the women they shoehorn in aren't even hot.
They're all hatchet-faced one-eyed lesbians with boy hair.
Which is what I thought cool girls were like when I was in my "Chasing my friends with poo on a stick" developmental stage.
And mutilated masculinized women front and center all the time, acting out a strangled parody of masculinity to prove that they are "manlier than the men" just seems like a feeble and badly couched attempted repudiation of *actual* femininity.
Like the mirror version of the emasculated male cutouts that populate girl-centric media.

Rate me controversial here, but I unironically think you shouldn't be allowed to have an opinion about anything in this hobby until you've painted at least three hundred tiny plastic Orcs.

It's a game about war. With some rare exceptions, women don't belong in the setting in the first place. Most of those exceptions are because of their rarity (Banshees) or outright absurdity (Sisters of Battle).
I get that modern Western culture is such that telling a woman that maybe something isn't for her is anathema to the most important thing in the universe: her ego, but at the same time, I don't care.
It's a game about war. It's a male space. Women can join if they want, as long as they remember to shut the fuck up.

Women typically play Tyranids or Orks. I even know a couple who play Space Marines.
I have never met a woman who plays Custodes. Or Guard, for that matter.
I have encountered a few 'women' that do, though.

I’ve only ever seen women play Nids. It’s so bizarre too. I find them boring. Guard seems so much more interesting.

In Star Trek, the crew of the Saratoga were trying to send friendly "hello" messages to that whale proble.
In WH40K, had a giant flying cathedral warship encountered the whale probe, they'd just try to blow it up.

Girls just seem to dig the creature vibes, and are likely less enamoured with endless gunmetal and dirty tank treads.
They're also a good canvas for weird colour schemes, and the faction is "thematically" feminine, being led by "Norn Queens", and essentially having a constant focus on rampant consumption and production, which seems to be reflective of the jungian "devouring mother" archetype; literally when tyranid bioforms are recycled back into biomass before the fleet moves on.
Girls who get involved are more likely to be on the collecting and painting than play side of the hobby, so it really is going to be about the appeal of the faction's aesthetic, rather than anything to do with the game itself.
The one chick I know who paints miniatures has an Idoneth Deepkin army; lots of sea creatures and pastel colours, plentiful organic textures to paint, and loads of colour options, which I would say maps roughly to my theories.
What sorts of factions were you likely to see girls collect in Fantasy?
Wood elves spring to mind, which is thematically very different to Nids, but has many of the same qualities of providing plentiful monsters, organic surfaces textures, and opportunities to experiment with colour, using a whole natural woodland and floral palette.
An army of knights might be colourful, but there's always an awful lot of drybrushing steel involved, and knights tend to "gallantly" slay the sort of horrible majestic rippling organic beasties that girls seem to favour.
Makes me look askance at all these princesses who keep getting "kidnapped" by dragons.

What gets me is that these grifters don’t have any interest in the hobby outside of the culture war. They might own Space Marine 2, but that’s it. Never read a book, played a tabletop game, or even owned a miniature!
Say what you will about a guy like CerberusXT. He painted Space Marines up in pride flag colors to own the chuds, but he clearly enjoys the hobby. Crisp, clean paint schemes, demonstrating a mastery of painting miniatures. That guy has more of a claim to represent the “community” than grifting faggots like Endemyion or Jon del Arroz.
Someone hasn't seen the romance section at a Barnes & Noble lately...

No romance in 40k is as wholesome as Telemachon falling head over heels for another man’s waifu (and scoring) which it’s really telling that ADB’s OC donut steel gets cucked.
It’s always cuckery.

...depends on the monster to be honest.
It's funny, cuckery is either the ultimate insult or "being a cuckold is-" rather than being portrayed as the actual problem that it is.

if your only options are limpwristed leftist soycucks there aren't many options anymore to flip your bean to masculine and animalistic rapey "romance".
pretty sure that's they only "tragedy" they've only every experienced or can think off, it also fits with the whole beta mentality seeing themselves as the proud (but sad misunderstood) cuckold, not the one who fucks bitches.

Circumstances can change. It's not a setting in our Current Year time of unprecedented peace and plenty where stronk girlbosses get promoted so nobody calls us sexist. The chick next to you in the foxhole won't be one of Emma's Two Moms, it'll be Jill Valentine.
A Stalingrad Do-Or-Die is the norm in M41. Women will be put on the front lines because the Imperium needs any able body who can point a gun in the general direction of anything trying to kill you.

So I just finished watching the Secret Level episode, and honestly, the action felt really uneventful? I don't know how to explain this, but every fight felt effortless on one end, from the marines easily mowing down the cultists to the daemon freezing them and picking them off one by one until Titus manages to flip the script. It really didn't feel anything like original Astartes. Heck, even Sodaz's old SFM animations with infinitely less production value absolutely blow it out of the water.

I assume this was already posted? And yes it's the Fag/Maid marine guy. He's (probably) 100% serious.
