Even WWE itself had done sexual pictures of them on their own magazines. They just have another reasons that they cannot disclose publicly. So saddened by this news, without Chyna's role, there won't be strong cool women in Attitude era such as Lita who is my favourite. At the PEAK of WWE's horrid gross misogyny TV in the late 90s, Chyna was generally portrayed as a strong, smart, cool woman. That's huge. You do know there's a difference between "sexual pictures" and flat out ****, right? Also what ****ing misogyny? There's been a Women's title since 1956, and some of the most recognized superstars are the female wrestlers. Trish Stratus, Chyna, Lita, Sable, etc etc. You need to learn the difference between misogyny and sexualization. Wrestlers are free agents, and if they felt like they were being oppressed in some way, they had the freedom to ****ing get lost, so don't try to portray this as some sad story of misogyny. The 90's were a big period where women were portrayed as "sexy" to appeal to the teenage and older male crowd, see also; comics. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misogyny is not jut about having the titles but you realize what's the role for many WWE divas? Many of them started as over sexualized manager to their men colleague. If you don't think that is misogynistic then IDK what it is? And exactly, WWE are marketed towards adults, not kids, so the excuse for them not to put Chyna on HOF cos she did Pron are not sensical.

Way to throw your argument out the window. Also I would like to point out that they were many times equal partners in the groups, like Lita to the Hardy Boyz. I don't think you know what real misogyny is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except Lita happens after Chyna which is why I said Chyna give impact. Read again. And reasons why WWE these days are lame because they started to sell it towards kids. Everything getting softened down, they lost a lot of creds from long time fan because of that.

Lita happens after Chyna (except for actually holding the championship). Lita didn't have impact because of Chyna, Lita had impact because she was a good actress and performer. Chyna had her road paved decades before her by people like the Fabulous Moolah. There was no gross misogyny at a large scale like you've tricked yourself into believing. You're now changing your narrative because you've been corrected. The WWE was marketed at kids, and will always be marketed at kids. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It isn't "what I believe in", it's what I know. The WWE was marketed at kids from the very start, that's why there are baseball cards, fake foam championship belts, cereals, and action figures. It didn't magically change to adults and then back to kids. You need to be knowledgeable on these topics before you try and call them out Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Breakfast cereals with cartoonized versions of popular characters like John Cena, who is primarily hated by adult viewers, are not aimed at adults. John Cena was the most popular character for ages, and that's due to children. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
