Also she seems mostly ignoring input from people that don't see the
problem in the game. Also it appears that the game is targeting kids
but poster and appearance of Sara is targeting male heterosexuals. So
the woman appeared 8 times in one track. Is that like a magical number
- - if we lower it to 7 will it help? Or should we increase number of
other characters? Also woman in bikini on beach became a problem - I
don't know do you expect women to have skiing suite on beaches? There
must be a lot of sexual context on beaches for people thinking like
that - and it must be a Debian specific problem so we must solve it
here. In other words - if someone sees a problem here (btw, Sara was
mostly created by woman) it should be done upstream.

Cheers,
