Yes and no. I’m sure men hating extremists would love to play on the principal alone not to mention that they get to kill men. However- pretty much any period war game allows you to kill men rampantly. I suppose that it’s no more or less valid an argument than people who point at grand theft auto games as ultimate male chauvinist fantasies that are excuses to glorify violence against women and others. That is to say- while there may be some validity and pocket cases of people playing for those reasons- mostly I dismiss such observations as there is nothing inherently core to the idea. The fact that you CAN view it in such light if you choose does not make that its nature. The concept of An immunity or plot device only effecting one sex is a well worn trope. It’s also established by many medications or steroids that such substances can impact men and women very differently so it isn’t reaching too far in premise.
I love the idea. They’d have to ya see it with the right attitude (somewhat like RPG original PC only fallout)- an overall seriousness given a touch of humor by how outlandish it is, sprinkled with black humor throughout and subtle call outs.
Now I want the book
You really don't help me getting over my crush on you lol
