I think we're getting to the stage in this thread where everyone who has contributed so far has made their own opinions and preferences clear, so am going to ask everyone who has already made a point once to refrain from saying it again.

While is should be perfectly possible to discuss preferences for character models and voices without it getting icky, it is a topic that, unfortunately, can prompt comments that in the context of various RL stuff can touch uncomfortably on sexism, objectification and gender stereotyping (to say nothing of stereotyping of barbarians!), so unless we are prepared to be careful of how our comments are landing and course correct accordingly it's generally better to be concise and specific and to move on once we've said our piece.

Let's all put in a bit of extra effort to keep this thread constructive and friendly.
