Awww trout. Now Okay, I am Freya and I'm hot But then Chocolina is smokin'
The fact that google is telling me she's Sazh's frocobo is strange and disturbing to me. I can't vote for her for that reason alone.
I mean, have you considered that the other option is effectively a humanoid rat? If this were a case of Chocolina vs. a Human then sure, but this is a case of two half-humans, so picking one against the other on those grounds really doesn't make much sense. I'd say Chocolina is more human than Freya is, since she still has your typical attractive lady's body... still a bit weird with the wings but oh well.
Chocolina easily wins this for me. I mean, she looks hot. That's what this competition is about. The other one is a rat and I'm not really into furry stuff.
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
I’d actually argue Chocolina is more of a furry than Freya, ironically. It’s like a person in a fur suit (feathersuit?), as opposed to just, you know, a person of another race with a different standard of beauty.
So yeah, racist.
At least Freya has always looked like that and didn't just taint my memories of one of the only positives about XIII forever.
There's no such thing as racism when it comes to who you're attracted to. People who think it's racist to say you don't want to bone people of a certain race are not considering that visual aesthetics are a perfectly valid reason to be attracted to someone or not. You can't help what you find attractive.
Also, Chocolina is not a human in a bird suit, she's a chocobo given human form, but ... with bird bits. I guess. So not much different again. The main difference is that one still looks like a human, the other looks like an animal. Do you prefer humans or animals when it comes down to what you find attractive?
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
Who you're attracted to absolutely can be racist if you've never addressed your inherent biases and prejudices having been raised as a white person with privilege. Not being attracted to an entire race usually has a lot more going on there than simply "I don't like the way they look", because beautiful people of all races exist. If you're just like, "Eh, I just don't get what's attractive about black people, but hey, it's just a preference", that's absolutely racist.
Sorry, but it's true.
Ergo, it’s not racist to not be attracted to a specific person of another race. It IS racist to issue a blanket statement of “I don’t find rat people attractive”
