There'd be all kinds of advantages to having Agents modeled after women, including seduction and taking advantage of human sensibilities against hitting women.
It's a simulated world, it's not like they couldn't be programmed to have the exact same physical strength as any other Agent.
Because the dream world was set during a time period where it would stand out. How many female 3 letter agency agents did you see in 1999? Hell, how many now? Do any of them look seductive?
The humans didn't buy an ideal Matrix, doubt they'd buy a somewhat non backwards one.
Sebastian Rogers
They still needed to command respect from people in the matrix. Some slutty women in suits wouldn't exactly scare a team of cops.
Andrew Edwards
Salutations, HuffingtonPost!
Tyler Lee
ever seen a woman try to shoot a 45
Camden Collins
They were designed as men, and you can't just turn a man into a woman.
Christopher Moore
They made this movie before "diversity" became an imperative.
Christian Peterson
There was Dana Scully and uhm... Clarice Starling. And that bitch from Men in Black.
it's adorable how all women lean back while shooting
Hunter Martin
We're actually living in the matrix right now
Ryder Hill
Exactly, this is why the agents are all generic looking dark haired white men while the humans are very racially and gender diverse.
Jordan Reyes
They based on the men in black phenomenon
Landon Allen
Because Agents literally defended patriarchy using their toxic masculinity.
Julian Lewis
actually, it's somewhat the opposite motive.
the wachowskis are SJWs through and through but at the time they weren't quite as insane. still, the agents are tall, well groomed, in decent shape, middle aged white men for a reason. they are the enemy.
they wanted will smith for neo originally. so we would've had an interracial romance, black lead screaming WUCCUM TO ERF, BAD BOY FER LYFE, an also black mentor with a brown set of gym bros on the ship, one white guy who is a nerd who can't get pussy so he makes one in the matrix and one white guy who betrays all of them because he's weak and cowardly.
and every enemy is a clean cut white man. it's the system, maaaannnnnn
Luis Ortiz
That's what people will look like a thousand years from now, if there are any people left at all. White skin is a recessive gene, deal with it.
Daniel Powell
Why did the agents get Chad-lier?
Luis Taylor
I guess you could find this sort of shit for any movie, if you really tried. All that paranoia must be taxing after a while.
Connor Anderson
there is no white skin gene, fool.
Nathaniel Rodriguez
>live underground >light skin disappears uh......
Isaiah Nelson
Don't worry, they'll be there in the reboot.
Kevin Miller
I wonder if the Smith absorbing her code was the real downfall...
Bentley Jackson
>deal with it What part of my post insinuates that I would be bothered by that all?
Colton Thompson
I read that it was the studios who tried to get Will, the Wachowskis always wanted Neo to be a blank slate everyman, they were probably the most relieved that Will passed.
Bentley Sanders
yea, i mean, the entire set of good guys are so diverse that there are barely any white guys, but every single enemy is a white man, including non-agent bad guys like Cypher, that french dude, the twins and colonel sanders.
Justin King
Oh really? You happen to have a source for that? I always thought it was the other way around.
Elijah Thomas
>he thinks that people living away from the sun will actually develop MORE melanin They'll all fucking die from vitamin deficiency. Dumb numale scum
Jason Jackson
to retroactively empower frustrated cis-white males of future
Nolan Jenkins
>There'd be all kinds of advantages to having Agents modeled after women There wouldn't since those who fight against agents are literally redpilled.
John Ortiz
>develop melanin You're thinking millions of years, the matrix is a thousand tops. >implying you can't get vitamin D from mushrooms or eggs wew lad
John Campbell
>so we would've had an interracial romance Do you think Keanu is white or something?
Christopher Sanchez
keanu is white. race isn't that hard. having some non-european blood doesn't automatically make you non-white. almost all american families who've been here for a few generations have some injun in them.
Nathaniel Bell
you cant, dimwit autism
Nathaniel Foster
And virtually every african american has white in them. You're either white or you're not. You don't get to pretend it doesn't count.
Isaiah Davis
Plus all the police they killed in the first one.
Were there any black police? I know there were no women mowed down by the "good guys".
Noah Collins
they are authority figures and no one would be intimidated by a female law enforcement agent
Mason Howard
>he didn't hit on Agent Pace in the MxO
talk about bluepilled
Aiden Brown
JOKE'S ON YOU THEY ARE FTM TRANS WOMEN.
Elijah Garcia
"white" is mostly a construct based solely on skin pigment and a few defining features. keanu is very much white enough to be "white". He's got European features, sensibilities and light skin. Yes, he does exhibit some injun/eskimo features and sensibilities too, but he's a pretty clear "white" which is different from "European" or "European heritage".
>And virtually every african american has white in them
exactly, but they're still "african" something or other aren't they? It's really not that hard. most all of us are mixtures or some type or another. think of dog breeds. for all intents and purposes, you can look at a labrador retriever who's had all lab ancestry except for one german shepherd grandfather and call it a lab if it looks like a lab. is it purebred? no. who cares? it's still basically a lab.
23 and me will tell you what your heritage is. it won't tell you if you're "white".
Noah Ross
Men are more generic and disposable.
Austin Thomas
nice dubs
and no, i don't remember any non-white police/swat guys who were all real human beings in the matrix rather than agents.
thinking about it now, it's even more blatant than i thought at the time. literally every single enemy is a white man and probably 80% of neo's allies were non-white. 60% specifically black.
Ryder Cooper
>metaphor for The Man >implying women or non-whites have any real social power
Landon Sanchez
>deal with it. Pic related... this is how you sound.
Zachary Johnson
Can Sup Forumsfags decide already? Will there be muh white race or not in the future?
Leo Ramirez
yes but only because brown people will make their designer babies white through genetic engineering
Ryder Rodriguez
So brown people will save the white race after bringing it near extinction ... mhmm, why not.
Owen Bailey
You sound mildly retarded. People like you should be euthanized.
Nathan Parker
Reminder that Cipher was right
Hudson Parker
>Can Sup Forumsfags decide already? Will there be muh white race or not in the future? It totally depends on the way our political leaders will act now and in the future...
Cooper Ortiz
Efficiency
Women have their place in the system but to have a system performing at 100% everyone needs to be in their place
Julian Moore
Reminder that most of the people involved in this orgy are the descendants of only 23 men and women brought out of the matrix by the previous One
Evan Richardson
Trinity was their self-insert, not Neo lol
Jonathan Bailey
You can't stop people from fucking each other, lass. Get over your hillbilly complex.
Brayden Anderson
Sure we can. Undesirables are sterilized. See how easy that was?
Zachary Davis
Do you know why there are so many blacks and browns in Zion but almost no whites? It's the future. Whites are almost extinct due to low birth rate and race mixing.
Jose Hill
>there isn't enough gender inclusivity in this simulated world designed to be oppressive and imperfect
Jayden Harris
And a neckbeard decides who's undesirable? Well, there is no way this is going to backfire then.
Owen Hall
Because if there were female agents, you'd be here bitching about why The Matrix glorifies violence against women.
>Agent Smith is a female dominatrix >End scene is Neo getting fucked by millions of Agenth Smiths in a worldscale gangbang
Brody Williams
That already happened, that's why you're alone fapping in your basement.
Daniel Reed
The Arabs had the common sense to castrate their black slaves
That's why there's fewer black people in Egypt today than you'd find in the United States or Brazil in spite of Egypt literally being in Africa
Charles Allen
Don't forget Switch was named as such because they were transgender and was male in the real world but female in the matrix.
The whole movie is about how minorities are controlled by evil white men and they need to "wake up" from whitey's mind prison...and ironically, in the end, the humans (minorities) are no better off, having only survived because the machines (ebil whites) promised neo they wouldn't murder/rape zion today.
Owen Scott
They are Men in Black
Nolan Collins
>Don't forget Switch was named as such because they were transgender and was male in the real world but female in the matrix. Given that the only people who can use the Matrix are people who were born plugged in, what the fuck did they mean by this?
Did the machines flip a 0 to a 1 somewhere by mistake?
Michael Moore
Go back to chemo.
Hunter Clark
I think you mean Switch was a women in the real world and a male in the Matrix. I mean Switch is the chick that shoots those rockets in the 3rd movie right?
Benjamin Myers
>He thinks the Agents had genders
Kek.
Julian Howard
I thought Switch was the blonde from the first one.
Connor Baker
Switch was the "Not like this" all in white person Cipher kills after they see the Oracle in the first one.
Hudson Baker
Agents can actually turn into whatever person they want who is in the matrix and not a human avatar, so they can become a woman if needed. I really hope someone else has already addressed this and I'm not in a thread full of people who haven't seen the movies
Daniel White
>all this shitposting about the Wachowskis being sjw
They're weebs, massive fucking weebs.With all the anime genderbender fetishism one of them went nuts and started believing he'd be a girl as long as he wore a dress. He eventually convinced the bald one that he could finally get senpai's attention if he became a girl.
Blake Ross
There's also a lot of fetishization about how magnificent black people are
Like in Cloud Atlas, when thousands of years in the future black philosopher kings will live in spaceships while white cannibals rape each other in a ruined wasteland below
Noah Moore
IIRC there was a female agent in the MMO that was made specifically to be more approachable and less imposing to humans.
Benjamin Harris
Better question, if it's their system and the Matrix was programmed, why having physical manifestations why not just delete intruders or instantly build a concrete room with spikes around them?
Nolan Nelson
LOL, you are so triggered.
Brandon King
Isn't it so complex and focused as a reality simulator that they can't do that? Like programs existing as sentient human mimics kind of implies how complex it is.
Matthew Baker
Does anyone else remember those live action matrix comics made by that south asian girl back in 2003?
Xavier White
Because the matrix is so complex that it had to be written with "rules" in the code. If the rules were easily broken then any typical program could easily run rampant and cause trouble, or any give human could become "The One" by exploiting various loopholes within the Matrix's code.
It's also implied that the Matrix is so complex that changing the code in real-time isn't normally feasible. The only person that's capable of this is "The One", because they are a singularity of "Choice" that must exist to maintain the system's illusion of choice.
All programs in the Matrix are AI that are given a specific purpose. Some of them, like the Oracle, weren't even originally created for their purpose, they simply figured shit out on their own and became more useful, so they were reassigned to their current position.
Carter Hernandez
Quite literally this
Jeremiah White
Because they're upgrades...
Owen Smith

Thomas Morales
pretty and strong famale officers don't exist
Not even in russia
Jonathan Flores

Ryder Harris
>including seduction Why? They don't need to interrogate people connected to The Matrix, and redpilled humans wouldn't fall for it.
>taking advantage of human sensibilities against hitting women You can't even shoot Agents, never mind punch them.
Cooper Robinson
Anyone who disputes the accuracy of this post is an idiot.
Benjamin Edwards
really?
James Rivera
>Seeing this movie for the first time >Get to this scene >Remember how Cypher warned Neo earlier that when he sees an Agent, he better run >Oh fuck is Neo gonna run? >He looks to the stairs >Then turns around >Oh SHIT >Cue fifteen minutes of cinematic BLISS
I wish I was a kid again sometimes. There was nothing quite like this movie at 10 years old.
Jason Campbell
This
Isaiah Evans
In the first movie whoever was behind the Matrix changed the structure of the house the guys were in in the scene where the mouse got shot.
Jayden Reyes
>implying the oracle isn't a female agent
David Baker
The agents probably contacted the AI that manages the building to alter it. What we're saying is no, they can't just instantly transport the red-pilled into a death chamber.
Henry Davis
man, arab inner cities always look so comfy. Too bad you'll probably get bombed nowadays
Landon Taylor
I thought it was because machines sucked at deception. They were too logical and emotionless to convincingly lie and subvert, so they just used brute force and bending the laws they made for the world to take care of shit.
Owen Foster
>You can't stop people from fucking each other You can certainly stop genocidal freaks who want to overpopulate Europe with two digit IQ third worlders. And they will be stopped!
Christian Miller
>genocidal freaks who want to overpopulate I don't think words hold any meaning for you anymore.
