      No. That's cherrypicking so the person who made that image can produce a strawman for an argument. Presumably around the idea of "women are oppressed because look at how they're sexualized."

      I'm aware of the excerpt and I believe that for some orders, it's true.

      But I also believe that Sororitas Order's are as varied as Imperial Guard regiments. You have some nobilist regiments like the Scintillian Fusiliers or ones really nitpicky about appearance like the Mordian's

      And then you've got savage deathworld hard fricker types covered in scars just coming out of their homeworld like Necromundan 8th or the catachan.

      So some, perhaps many, Ecclesiarchal ordo's want their sororitas to look 'pleasing in the eyes of the Emperor'. But there's bound to be at least a few priests on a war front who has no time for that nonsense and wants mean & ugly big bertha's capable of ripping a tau in half who would pay out lots of coffers for fresh recruits from Catachan or Eschers and isn't picky about encouraging the use of 'combat stims' to improve performance.

      The Ciaphas Cain books mention the Sororitas novitiates were the most bloodthirsty in the schola rugby games and could reliable be counted on to leave at least a few of their opponents with broken bones and limbs.

        Your only quote to counter that sisters are allegedly attractive from some books is another book calling them bloodthirsty and likely to break bones. None of that comments on appearance. You've failed this exercise on a fundamental level and need to actually research lore at a certain point over making assumptions.

        The ecclesiarchy is fricked up and wants brides of the emperor. They want loyal brainwashed soldiers from as pure genestock as possible. They aren't just nabbing grown ass women from death worlds and hive slums and calling it a day, that's what the guard is for.

        This seems obviously true. Every faction is designed to be as idiosyncratic and diverse as possible so as to allow your dudes to be however they want. I don't see why we can't all get along and have our sisters look however we want.

        No. Pic related is the 6th edition Codex cover. SoB have always been beautiful, because they're the Daughters of the Emperor and Big E doesn't raise ratchet b***hes. Under all the helmets is flawless waterproof mascara and eyeliner. Under the power armor is stockings and garter belts. If you don't feel beautiful purging heretics and burning witches, can you really say you're fulfilling the emperor's will to the fullest?

        That's just fine, but for my part I genuinely prefer the grisly self-mortifying fanatic look. Ironically enough given how often the Imperium gets called fascist, nothing about it is vitalist - everything about its culture and society is as perversely antihuman and dysfunctional as possible. and if Imperium is decaying and ruinous, so should its people be to match, to my mind.

        Battlefield sisters in good standing are always power armored. Non-armored sisters are penitents seeking death.
        Cain remarks how shocking it is to see such beautiful young girls fighting on the front lines, they're clearly not ugly. And, of course, he thinks they are braindead psychos. My favourite moment is in the novel with the chaos general who mind controls a bunch of sororitas, and when Jurgen breaks his control over them, the first thing they do isn't to attack the general, standing right in front of them being a free kill, but to kill themselves. Stupid fricking bolter b***hes. Is there ever a case in the lore where these morons make good decisions? Even when they make decisions that retroactively turn out to have been correct, like when they free the fricking daemonhost in godblight, in the moments when they make those decisions they're always insanely bad decisions. How did they know they weren't being influenced by chaos, as the Cain novel just mentioned proves that they can easily be? They had no idea, they just freed a daemonhost because it felt right. Also, speaking of Cain, in another novel, he's chasing a rogue inquisitor (he chases him over several novels, actually, or Amberly does while occasionally getting him roped in), who does that guy use for his henchmen? To massacre innocents and hide evidence? The sororitas, of course. They even got started as the hench(wo)men of like the vilest traitor since the heresy!
        By the emperor, these b***hes need to be put down and their funding redirected somewhere else. Spending it on attaching ogryn joygirls to guardmen regiments would be better return on investment.

      Any woman who is athletic is almost always considered attractive even if they have a butterface.
      Constant training+regimented monastic diet means SoBs universally have tight tummies and toned thighs.

      I've always wondered if Sisters of Battle face sexual assault, and what happens when they do. Like, what happens if a Repentia is fricked by cultists? Does she just kill herself?
      What if a Sister gets pregnant and escape? Does she immediately go for the coat-hanger trick?

      >I've always wondered if Sisters of Battle face sexual assault
      IG boys are pretty religious.
      While I wouldn't be surprised at some hooking up happening within the ranks, any man that did anything non-consesual to an SoB would likely get the shit kicked out of him by his own platoon or BLAM'd by the commissar in short order.
      Also remember that Sisters are rocking power armor most of the time.

      >Raped and preggers by a cultist.
      >coat hanger
      Actually I think they would do the opposite
      She would probably deliver the child and have it raised in a monastary where they would be eventually brought to the front lines as a soldier to kill cultists.

      Congrats. A cultist loading a baby into a battle sister is the equivalent of loading a gun aimed at your own head.

        >She would probably deliver the child

        I highly doubt that. Chaos cultists are subhuman filth, spiritually and physically tainted by the Great Enemy. The utter hatred the Sororitas would feel toward such a person would make the average /misc/ack look like a Peace Corps volunteer. Even in the highly unlikely case the child isn't some kind of mutant the idea of allowing it to live at all, let carrying it for nine months, wouldn't even enter anyone's heads. Anyone who did insist on keeping a child conceived under such circumstances would probably be suspected of chaos corruption themselves.

      They'd probably view it like any other torture, which tends to lean on the 'suffering is a part of duty' and 'be defiant in the face of the heretic' so we can make assumptions based on that.
      She would have to be retrained for a rape to even happen because she would be fighting the whole time.
      >What if a Sister gets pregnant and escape? Does she immediately go for the coat-hanger trick?
      She might not need to, pro life arguments tend to focus on the fetus having human rights and the only rights you have in the Imperium are those which allow you to do your duty, the institution itself may mandate an abortion and provide drugs so she can get back to purging. I don't think it has been specifically touched on though so it could be anything.
      Although if she is a repentia who both didn't achieve victory and survived, well... she's provably going into an engine of some kind.

        In fairness, she was clearly a mentally unhinged war vet that was trying to come to terms with her loss in a way that made sense to the zealotry that makes up the fundamental core of her being.
        She can't just 'be' the hyper-rational guardswoman, despite her fantasized companion always being right, because it'd mean denying her faith and entire worldview.

        If she fights with faith, fire, and zealousness, then the Emperor says she'll win. She did this to the best of her abilities, and lost. So either her God is wrong (kek no), she actually wasn't fighting with proper holy zeal (which she remembers she was), or the rest of the planet wasn't pious enough (which she can't say it wasn't, and that's her only option left).

        Then, her conscience and rational mind come in, separated from herself in the image of a dead, pragmatic companion, because their words are harmful to her psyche. But then she slowly realizes the reality of things, listens to that voice in her head, just in time to die.

        This is far more fetishistic than the fanart or cosplay. What is OP whining about again?

      You are functionally correct, as far as the matter goes.
      Sisters occupy a strange middle ground between Astartes, Stormtroopers, and Priests.
      While they are power armoured specialist shock troops, they are also a certain type of religious icon, and troop morale booster. They're a more human, approachable, realistic showcase of human potential. What you could be. In this regard, appearances do matter.
      For every priory of scar-faced brutes with most of their teeth missing from brawling that stomp through defenses like miniature space marines, you've got a priory of k-pop idols that attach one of their number to a battlegroup, to inspire it to fight harder.

          However, I think there is a happy medium. There is enough sexuality in the setting to keep neckbeards happy and that can peacefully coexist with the more realist parts of the setting.
          There is also the notion that fantasy is often informed by the fantasizers ideals. So anons salivate at the notion of giant dark eldar rape origies but scoff at the idea of female generals in the imperium. Again, the answer is balance. We should be able to accomodate all the fantasy the setting can hold and gritty, not necessarily attractive battle sisters does not break the setting. You can then make all the sexy fanart about them that you want but sperging about how having not attractive women in the setting somehow implies a feminist infiltration and a war against male sexuality is moronic.

        The people who whine about female guardsmen are not the same as the ones who want SoB to be beautiful. The former are mentally ill treadhead imperial guard players who would be playing historicals if they weren't a dead genre of wargame. The latter are normal people who prefer pretty girls to ugly ones. Wearing mascara and eyeliner under a helmet fits in perfectly fine in a setting where artillery are covered in blessed oil and incense and blessed by priests and heavily armored infantry go into battle with wax and paper purity seals covering their equipment.

        You could argue that power armor makes sisters viable while female guardsmen aren't. If the suit does most of the work all they would strictly need is cardio and a specialized conditioning regimen, which should be within reach for most women.

        Black person the whole female guard thing is also an arguement from realism like from the types of ADB.

        You guys are hypocrites when it comes to realism because you claim sexualization is "unrealistic" and you want "realistic female body types" but then say realism doesn't matter when it comes to women in war or in power.

        Actually the entire concept behind the Adepta Sororitas goes hand-in-hand with the idea that regular women make shit soldiers without the power-of-money giving them everything. If you stop and think about it for a single god damn second.

        Why do the Sororitas exist as the only official military arm of the Ecclesiarchy?
        Because of the Decree Passive. Which explicitly forbade the Ecclesiarchy from commanding MEN-at-arms in order to disband their vast armies.
        This by itself clearly implies that vast armies were composed almost entirely of men, otherwise banning JUST THE MEN wouldn't really destroy the Ecclesiarchy's ability to raise vast armies now would it?

        But the Decree Passive allowed the loophole of permitting women at arms because women-at-arms could only be useful if colossal amounts of money were thrown at them to give them the best training, power armour and special weapons. Which would naturally limit their numbers.
        *IF* regular women were just fine as regular soldiers, the Decree Passive wouldn't mean dick. Because the Ecclesiarchy would still be able to raise vast competent armies of standard military soldiers like in the Age of Apostasy.

        Of course this was all written back when people irl weren't fricking moronic, and knew it was simple common sense that vast armies of unaugmented humans going to war would be composed almost entirely of men.

        Now that homosexual nuGW have decided that men and women in 40k are exactly physically identical (but still conveniently retain all the social contrivances and norms between genders), the Decree Passive doesn't even make sense. If Imperial Guard regiments can be 50% women and still effective, why couldn't the ecclesiarchy still raise vast armies (just half as big as they were before)?

          No. They're all overtly women because "Men under arms" is an incredibly nebulous military term that covers both sexes, and their whole existence is a known straw-grasp that only the church has the pull to pull off.

          I mean, I get hating women, I know I hate them too. But their entire implementation from the get-go was that the mostly unplanned and unwanted sisters could be competitive with the autonomous hyper-selective psychotic homosexuals club with massive systemic support and resources, known as the marines.

          No it allowed women-at-arms because the Daughters of the Emperor were some of the most hard-core motherfrickers anyone had seen at the time and had already proven that they were willing to put the will of the Emperor above the Ecclesiarchy and put a bullet in the head of any uppity priest trying to put personal gain ahead of the Church, up to and including the Ecclesiarch. If the Ecclesiarchy was gonna have an army (and it was going to have an army no matter what the rest of the Imperium said), it might as well be made up of people that could be trusted not to let things degrade bad enough to cause another Age of Apostasy.

          Frateris Militia were already a thing way back in 2nd edition, which are dudes, so the Decree Passive has never been strictly enforced since the SoB's inception. It's basically always just been an excuse for having sexy battle nuns in power armor.

          Wrong. You forget that the female soldier trope was popularized in the late 60-80s, with the gals from Aliens being the most well know example.
          There were women soldiers in 40k since the start and they got a few metal minis. It just was impractical to put them in the later plastic kits due to limitations of the technology of the era, heroic scale, and changes in art direction.

          If a man transitions to become a woman, would she be accepted as a sister of battle or would the ecclearchy still view him as a man?
          I mean, the ecclesiarchy could force a bunch of men to say they identify as women to be part of the SoB and it wouldn't have broken any rules.

      But it's 6th Edition. If you have to go back over 10 years to find them pretty but the last 10 years they are ugly troons. Of course they are pretty in my heart my GW is more important do push some moronic social thing "OMG YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO HAVE PRETTY WOMEN" that 1% of people say that don't even play the game when the other 99% are lonely males that like pretty women in cool armor. Look at the official models, the faces especially. I want to weep.

        GW have always sculpted ugly fricking faces, though, and continue to do so without any weird agenda behind it.
        Like, look over at the Middle Earth line. The official images that should be showing the model in the best light to sell it to you? Legolas looks like he's either got more cheek fat than your average tournament winner, or is actively throwing up in his mouth. Pic related.
        There's no agenda there, faces are just harder to do at that scale than GW is willing to put effort/money into.

        Agreed. But 'arm all the women and children to be last ditch cannon fodder because everyone else is dead' is the purview of PDFs, not the Imperial Guard.

    It is because the authors tend to be bugmen. The same types who argue against high heels, boobplate and attractive SoB.
    Which is a funny contrast because the cosplayers are all nice lookers who fully embrace the SoB design (except Sug with her shitty breastplate)

    The Sisters of Battle are not a merit based organisation. If it were then it would just be hordes of stormtroopers (men) wearing power armour. They occupy a symbolic/politically convenient role in the hierarchy of the Imperium. As such they were commonly depicted as quite unrealistically attired coom bait. They are essentially that even in universe; propaganda pieces that are given the best equipment and training to be the mailed fist of the church.

    Of course 40k is moving away from this because its getting more watered down and commercialised, but at its peak Sisters of Battle were smokin hot chicks in latex power armour.

    The more I hear people complain about beautiful women be it in 40K or in whatever other media is being discussed I'm convinced the same people must have enormous problems with their own insecurities.

    Yeah, we all like to look at beautiful things unless we have a fetish for ugly stuff. It's just how things are. Just admit it and move on. I'm not a looker myself by a long shot but that doesn't mean I have the right to tell others that they can't appreciate beauty.

    I'll level with all of you, I think its one case that it can be fair to pull the "depends on the author" card
    While more or less its fair to assume it'll always be dark and grim, because of fricking course, I don't find anything surprising, odd or even contradictory that one writer would like to describe some sororitas as being ugly and deformed because they suffer battle injuries while other writer would describe them as beutiful and having "angelical" features to emphasize their purity and faith. Makes sense too, there are some common canons and common sense, but ultimately beuty is subjective. Ultimately my point really is that arguing "THE CANON DESCRIPTION IS THIS AND ONLY THIS!" is peak stupid

    Sororitas are recruited from the Schola Progenium and as such come from primo genetic stock. They and pretty much anyone else who graduates from the Schola Progenium are meant to represent the best of Humanity, which is important when the bulk of your society looks like the Strogg in Ren Faire garb. As such, Sororitas are all beautiful women, scarred beautiful women (who choose to keep their scars despite having access to the best medical care in the Imperium, perhaps having those scars cosmetically altered so as not to be disfiguring), and once you reach high enough in their command structure: ancient, haggardly, scarred, cybernetically enhanced old women that look like Granny Goodness who have endured war for so many centuries, that the rejuvenat treatments no longer work.

    As a sororitas fan, I remember when the fans hated pretty Sororitas because they were emotionally stunted, misogynistic chuds terrified of the female sexuality baked into the faction since the 2e days. Now I live in an era where the fans hate sororitas are emotionally stunted, onions bugmen who hate pretty sororitas because they are terrified of the female sexuality baked into the faction since the 2e days.
