I'm merely pointing out a pattern. An unrealistic one. Not every woman has to be the equivalent of Ronda Rousey... in space. You know what would be amazing... for a woman character in destiny to actually be drop-dead sexy AF. How cool would that be. It's bizarre to me, but such a thing seems to be viewed as "bad" for some odd reason. It's hard to even imagine that Bungie would ever do such a thing. I don't know. It's just a trend I see more and more. Women can't just be women anymore. It's like every character designer feels like it's their mission to make women be more like men, and I just don't get it. On a side note... Yesterday I watched the new animated video for Hearthstone (https://youtu.be/HxeAZQ6TeKM) and took notice of "Stargazer Luna", a female Draenei character that's in the game's new card set. The original Draenei female characters in WoW were demure, sexy and cool, oozing with sensuality. And it didn't just appeal to men either. Just look at all the sexy Draenei cosplay outfits of the past decade and you'll see what I'm talking about. A lot of girls really dig these sexy Draenei characters (and I thank them for that!). But this new character in Hearthstone... well, let's just say she's been eating too many mana pies. This new Draenei is overweight (i.e. "body positive") and puritanically dressed, literally from the neck all the way down to the ankles. And on top of that, the character is kind of "ugly". WTF right? Who designs these things and thinks that this is what escapist sci-fi/fantasy world building should look like?
