Females shoehorned into most leading positions is annoying.

[Agent441]

The fact is it feels way to forced. Jobs that are mainly dominated by men all of a sudden have female leaders…even for ship companies which is utterly laughable. I get the whole wanting to include females but this is something different this feels like a “let’s promote female empowerment and boss ♥♥♥♥♥ vibes” and it’s just way to obvious it takes away from the immersion. Why do we have so much male sidekicks/secretaries and then female with the feminist look female as the head?

The joke about this is, if you have to force them into it chances are it’s cause they haven’t been able to do it on their own merit. So even with the shoehorning it still speaks to the fact they have to be given those positions versuses working for it so saying indirectly they really can’t compete.

Last I checked especially for engineering males dominated…but hey we all know companies have to push their given agendas.

Not just an "emotional response", but a patently and stupidly false one.

I listed in an identical thread the leadership in this game. Well over 95% male.

If anything, women are under-represented there and over-represented in middle-management or secretary roles.

Remember when entertainment was known to be fictional scenarios that aren't a 1:1 representation of the real world? Ya those were the good old days. Did everyone simply forget that Chun-Li and Sonya could go toe to toe with Zangief and Goro? Where is the crying for that one? How many people stopped maining female characters in fighting games cause "muh relism mang"?

Ryujin - Male CEO
Stroud - Co-owner of Stroud-Eklund and the one that hired Sarah, as well as the money behind Constellation.
UC Chief Ambassador is male
FreeStar Collective leader is male
Freestar Rangers leader is male
Aegis intel chief - male
Every church leader is male
Vanguard Commander is male
2 of 3 UC Military dep heads were male
Neon City mayor is male
Majority of shop owners were male
Pirate leader is male
Cydonia mayor is male
Most corporate heads I met were male (Laredo Arms may be female run?)
4 of 5 security chiefs were male that I saw

And then...
UC President is female
1 (of 3) UC military department heads is female

Where is all this "female domination"? I want some!

Weak troll.

This has been done to death on this board.

Affirmative action has given the weak an immense sense of unearned superiority.

[NTense]

It's the same in Fallout 76
Bethesda has sold out

[PolecatEZ]

If anyone can come up with a better list, I'm all ears.

Literally 95%+ positions of power in this game are male, and at least half of those are indeed "white males".

No idea where this whole tactic is coming from.

Most likely they have slacker husbands with throwaway jobs that don't pay the bills, and who also spend their free time playing video games instead of pursuing professional or educational activities.

OP saw a couple of females that weren't twirling around on a stripper pole and declared it the end of the world.

What's wrong with females being in charge? Gives the rest of us more time to play Starfield.

I don't think the OP was playing the same game. You can literally count the women in charge of anything on one hand.

Awwww, someone needs a hug. Everything will be fine!

I'm all for the removal of woke in gaming but looking at that list above i agree the female leads aren't as big as people complain.

[goldbergeri79]

Ryujin it was female CEO as i just played their questline trough.. i mean yeah that was first time i did notice that it had basicly all power positions by women.. felt a bit unbalanced as it was one sided but meeh one time does not really matter as its only time i saw that.

Other than Ryujin i have not noticed really anything strange but i have yet many many quests left to do so i can come to nitpick :D

This has to be the most uneducated post I have seen. I get reality has nothing to do with your post, but why include things that can be checked,

In just one of your points, look at women in engineering. 50 years ago would have been a handful. 25 years ago far more but not at parity. Today? Why don't you look up how many people are in engineering by gender. I double dog dare you to do it.

This forum needs a better class of troll.
