My opinion, for what it's worth, is that there's always going to be a few
people who are unhappy about anything you do. If there's a mountain of
backlash, sure, maybe you're treading on toes that don't need to be tread
upon. But when there's only a few people complaining, you're doing
something right.
The t-shirt art is gorgeous and definitely in keeping with Clue. I love it,
and if we do end up printing some of the single-lady t-shirts, I'll want a
Ms. Peacock shirt for myself. =^_^=
That said, my views are obviously suspect, since I'm in charge of Video
Gaming, where almost all of the women are idealized and sexualized. Better
not mention the Soul Calibur tournament to the people who are
complaining... ;)

"Would you like another drink, sir?" asked the bartender.
"I think not," replied Descartes, and promptly vanished.
