[Deptheads] Shirt Art Backlash

[Nekojin]

I've had a little time to think about the art, and I still don't think it's
sexist. Pandering, perhaps - it idealizes the three Clue ladies, and
dismisses the Clue men. But it's fairly light-handed pandering, something
that can appeal to anyone. It's certainly a much lower level of pandering
than, say, Isabella Valentine from Soul Calibur.

But for it to be sexist, it'd have to be objectifying in some way -
suggesting that the women are objects, not people. And I just don't see
that.
