@strawberryshakeus directed us to this thread which combined the usual claims that men can’t be empowered with a bizarre implied narrative that Star Sapphires (Pink Lanterns in all but name) shouldn’t have male members because they’re powered by Love (as opposed to Willpower for Green Lanterns or Rage for Red Lanterns).  

Failing that, if male Star Sapphires must be allowed in the game, they shouldn’t dress provocatively as female Star Sapphires tend to.

Can’t wait for the next troll critic to drop in and tell us that double standards aren’t really a thing.

Come on, who wouldn’t want to look up and see that bold man defending their city!?

Sadly, DC seems to share the double standard sentiment

So, Circe is a Wonder Woman villain who goes all the way back to 1959 and for some reason – out of all the possible outfits and designs, this is the one that DC Universe Online went with.

Of course, there’s concept art for different designs:

But of course, that’s what they used for the gritty dystopian future that only appears in the intro video.  Thanks DC Universe Online.
