So let me get this straight...your girlfriend is playing a game set in a universe that is bursting at the seams with strong female characters, where women are demonstrably every bit as capable of kicking tail as men - and often more so.

Lets see now...possibly the greatest MechWarrior in the franchise? Female. The pilot who finally manages to kill her? Female. Current leader of the richest and most industrially powerful Successor State? Female. Her predecessor, respected by all, a political and military mastermind, perfectly capable of untangling the numerous and multifarious plots against her by her own nobility? Female. Current (as of this point in the timeline) leader of one of the oldest and most widely respected mercenary units in the Inner Sphere? Female.

She comes into this and wants a ******* pink mech with D-cups?

Wow...

Yeah, that's kind of sad.

Ahhh, Protomechs, kill them with fire!!!! Seriously I never understood the whole make a mini-mech between power armor and regular mechs but I hope they never get in this game. Its bad enough having Jenners and Commandos coming up to the waist of heavies and assaults, could you imagine Protos coming up to their knees or thighs. TARGETING NIGHTMARE!!

just wanna know

wahh I have ******* and feel the need to bring attention to myself. Mechs aren't male or female, they are ******* robots. If you had played any of the older games, you would have known that there are plenty(and I mean plenty) of female pilots available.

Before you going playing the sexist card, any post ever that starts off with "im a chick" is asking for attention, in the exact same way a black man posting "as a black man..." before they start their post. It's not needed, and your skin colour or boobs do not add anything of value to any discussion. That being said, I would've called you an ***** even if I hadn't known you were a chick, since your idea is kinda dumb

Most of the early battletech mechs came from Robotech which is, in fact, anime.

Actually, almost as many came from Fang of the Sun:Dougram and fewer from Crusher Joe.

[Aegis Kleais]

You're anthropomorphizing the Mech if you see it akin to a human being. Mechs aren't designed to look male/female. They are (usually) bipedal but the actualy mechanics and physics involved are different for moving a war machine than a human body.

If you think your mech has genitalia, that is *you* projecting onto the Mech. It's a fallacy to believe that "Female Gamers want a Female Mech"

Some male gamers don't mind when the protagonist is a female, some do; women are the same way.

No, THIS is mechwarrior fool:

Captain Greg Oliphant: Piloting a Banshee leaves many pilots sullen and resentful, but Oliphant is far from that.
Inheriting his ’Mech, “The Court Jester,” from his mother, he decorated it with a giant fool’s cap with bells. As if violating one regulation wasn’t enough, he has painted an elongated grin on its face. Despite his rebellious attitudes (or perhaps because of them), his company in the Seventy-first Regiment of Eridani Light Horse performs excellently in the field, and nothing can dampen his spirits.
