You can't say anything in this thread without at least 10 academic sources.

I mean, people keep bringing this up, but we certainly didn't have any trouble getting to the Orbonne Monestary which is inside the Golmore Jungle. We weren't riddled with arrows stepping foot there.
We flew in, had Fran with us, and immediately walked into a gigantic monster-riddled building. That's a big difference between just waltzing around the jungle solo and picking some flowers to make crafting tea.

With Tamamo no Gozen having lore that says she chose the form of a beautiful woman to walk among humans and you can see her wandering around sprouting lines of dialogue in Yanxia. One person brought up other enemies when the conversation was clearly about primals as one with a little critical thinking could figure out when we were talking about Sophia/Lakshmi/Zurvan/Ramuh. This is because primals are the enemies seen far, far more often than anything else and have a lot more visibility than Poroggo #507.

AND LET ME MAKE THIS VERY CLEAR, there is nothing wrong with making hot female enemies. I like them a lot, but it's just a very interesting trend (and honestly, you would have to be really stubborn to not acknowledge that you can probably name far, far more hot female enemies in this game than you can male) to look at. There is an interview where Soken flat out said that Yoshi-P wanted him to make Lakshmi's music more youthful since Yoshi-P didn't like THICCshmi (despite others seeming to like her) and made the art team change her to what we have now.
I don't know how much clearer you can make this.

inb4 I'm told I can't pick and choose when the original conversation was one of my making and I specifically said primals
