The old She-Ra looked like an adult, not a child. And the reason this is important is because she fought Hordak and the Evil Horde. And she did it to be a hero and save Eternia from Evil.

This She-Ra looks like a child. And you can't have a child fight and go on the same kind of adventures that you can an adult. Even when it's animated you can't have a child do the same dangerous things an adult does.

So the result is that this She-Ra, the 2018 one that looks like a child doesn't really fight to be a hero and save Eternia from the same evil menace. She's depicted as being too young to do that, so instead she goes on stupid and silly little adventures.

And that isn't She-Ra. She-Ra was intended to be "The Princess of Power," she was intended to be a warrior. She was supposed to fight evil, to save Eternia, and be a hero.

They depicted this She-Ra as a child and because she looks like a child she stopped being the "Princess of Power" and started being just a "Princess of Silliness and Cute." and that's not She-Ra.

And honestly, I don't know how that is offensive or violates any guidelines

"[...] you can't have a child fight and go on the same kind of adventures that you can an adult. Even when it's animated you can't have a child do the same dangerous things an adult does." - The bigotry that passes for reviews on TMDB. It would be funny if it wasn't so outlandish.

Here's another "review" that exists only to offset the bigotry. I never watched the original She-Ra, nor do I ever care to. I vaguely remember He-Man from my childhood but again, I don't care. I watched a couple episodes of the new He-Man and couldn't be bothered to continue. However, I watched every episode of She-Ra and the Princesses of Power and I rated it 10/10 and gave it a heart, didn't I? Yes I did.

I vaguely remember being irritated by Bow's exposed stomach though.

One day I might re-watch this and give it the "review" it deserves, until then, sit back, shelve the sexism and the bigotry, and enjoy the ride.
