@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
