look ricky, i know you’re reasonable. we’re not talking about the character in a vacuum, we’re talking about kojimas extreme defense of what would otherwise have been accepted as just standard fanservice, and the fact that the excuse was so flimsy. quiet doesn’t fit into her setting, sure. that happens in a lot of japanese media. but kojima made such a big deal about it before release that she somehow fits in worse than if he had said nothing.

Deflection / Framing Control
That’s what you’re talking about.
You’re dissatisfied with the canon explanation for Quiet’s exposure, you think Hideo made too big of a deal about it, that Hideo should have just said ‘yep I’m doing fan-service’.
Ricky is just stating that he finds conventionally physically attractive women physically attractive, that this is not a fetish, that wearing clothes that broadly fit the climate and Quiet’s combat role is not exhibitionism.
You keep talking past him, and the original commenter, never acknowledging that you keep throwing out tangential exaggerations, based around Kojima, that don’t apply to the people you’re talking to, the things they are saying.
Man, I heard people talk aboit Tarantino’s foot fetish, and I had not really looked closely at it until I went to see Kill Bill in a theater a few months ago. Now this is a movie I have watched a LOT, but after the 6th time we got a close up of Uma Thurman’s feet, 20 feet tall on the screen, god, I realized then who people pointed out his foot problem.

no, but exhibitionism is.

Wearing a bikini top in hot weather isn’t exhibitionism.

You’re talking, but you’re not listening.

Can you really call it exhibitionism if it’s a constructed storyline?
lime@feddit.nu 1 day ago
not sure how to answer that actually.

If it has to be sexual than it wouldn’t be possible. This is the real question.

absolutely. but trying to deflect it like kojumbo did shows that he definitely was ashamed.
