What do you think of the argument that women can be “sexy and badarse at the same time”

It all depends on the larger conversation and the overall motive behind the argument really.

If someone argues that say, women are complicated people and thus capable being many things and showcasing it as the situation requires – thus one may be still sexy when in full armor and badarse down to her bones.

If someone uses it as an attempt to silence criticism regarding character design by claiming that since the character is doing badarse things, having her always dressed in sexy lingerie makes it more impressive and empowering?
