Fun but the sexism has to stop! – Pocket Politics: Idle Money Review

I’ve been playing this on and off on multiple devices for a long time and while I love the satirical perspective on the political figure heads I have noticed situations of sexism. The one that has me writing my first review of this game is the current Memorial Day event. The US ARMY BERET and the REMEMBRANCE POPPY Women are good to fight and die for this country but from your perspective they can’t wear the berets? The female characters are only allowed the Remembrance Poppy while only the Male characters receive the ability to EQUIP the berets. Why the differentiation? If anything pick an item that makes more sense because service women wear headpieces as a requirement for their wardrobe. To put that as a MALE ONLY is ridiculous, ESPECIALLY when you take that away and give us flowers. Please try to be less obvious in your personal outlook that women are automatically associated with flowers puppies and kittens next time you sit down to plan your next event. Which admittedly I will end up playing because it’s a fun game. Also it’s interesting that the Beret is an item that you will get more often. While the Remembrance Poppy is noticeably less common. So for those of us that play as a female are getting a little screwed. The male character will inevitably progress faste, virtual glass ceilings are just sad...You force us (females) to either watch you steal our SLOWLY collected poppies by feeding them into the COMMON item which happens to be a MALE ONLY item OR we have to play as an non-relatable character that for me is a ugly reminder that in this world if you want to advance or be given more opportunities you must be a male. Not in 2019, not anymore, so PLEASE think from an alternative perspective enough to see the bigger picture. If need be find your most ball busting female friend and just run it by her before you settle for the unanimous upvotes of your male colleagues. If it just one person the again see your ball busting female friend. By the way, I’m happy to give 5 stars as soon as I see a broader perspective from you in future events...Thank you
