I've seen this whole "offensive language" thing brought up on a few sites and it's really pissing me off to no end.
These are murderers, rapists, cannibals and so on so why is it such a surprise that when they see a woman in a skin-tight catsuit they fantasise what they'd do to her? Is it really so wrong for them to refer to said woman as a "*****" when she starts beating the shit out of them? These guys are hardly gonna stick to polite and proper etiquette.
I've seen a number of sites refer to this as "lazy writing". Those people can piss off. When it boils down to it, it's some pretty damn realisitic writing right there.
(I'm aware that this should probably be directed at the dude you quoted, but he seems kinda stupid so I figured I@d direct it towards yourself as you seem not stupid....ugh, the mods probably won't like the "stupid" remark)
Actually, quite a few bad guys mentionned stuff like 'Catwoman should be careful walking around with an outfit like that... she could get in trouble' or stuff like that, even when I'm playing as Batman. This implies rape. Several comment about Harley Quinn are also of that caliber ('When Joker won't be around anymore, I'll get to ride the Harley!').
I don't find myself, but I do think on the 'morality scale', implied rape oughta be worse then a 2nd degree curse word... yet, that's not what people are complaining about. Which I find totally baffling.
And for what it's worth, I find Catwoman's greater speed and easier counter to be an quite an equalizer when it comes to comparing her to Batman. I find her a lot easier to use in the Combat Challenge... she is penalized in points because of her lack of gadget, but her greater speed means it's much easier to get perfect scores.
