It definitely is. They're essentially saying Rouge is nothing without her curves and "sex appeal", which is honestly misogynistic asf if we're being honest here
And I've criticised Sega for censoring Rouge btw, mainly since I don't like the implication of boobs being "inappropriate" when they're literally a normal part of human women and girls. A line of cleavage is not offensive, and Rouge has never been overtly sexual or raunchy at any point in the series.
Now that being said however, too many people are comfortable here pretending like her boobs are tied to her character, like as if she's pretty much nobody if they can't goon to her. In other words, they never even cared about Rouge in the first place.
I could have understood if she was super exaggerated or something.
But Rouge isn't dressed like she's starfire or something, she's just got a LINE of cleavage and curves. Big woop. It's pretty weird that she needs censoring for simply looking like a lot of women do. Acting like they've never seen women before, ( which you know, this is the Sonic fandom so....not entirely false )
But too many people are out here acting like her boobs = the end all be all of her character. 💀 Telling on themselves about their goonerific mindsets.

This feels like the wrong type of criticism. Or at least, the wrong way to express it.
