I cut UnfortunateImplications and put it there. Can we try without the WallOfText, {{Natter}}, talking in the first person or with ThisTroper, and {{Understatement}} SinkHoles?

Arkham City having male and female criminals is not that much of a stretch, especially considering who is running the show. Since Hugo Strange is a perfect example of TheSociopath archetype if not for his [[FoeYay obsession]] with Batman (arguably the only person he can be emotionally attached to, even if its in a \\\"Why can\\\'t I be you?\\\" way), he would have no problem putting women in Arkham City [[spoiler: and no problem with men and women dying in Protocol 10.]] Additionally, [[spoiler: Ra\\\'s al Ghul]] in the comics, has no problems with killing anyone who is either \\\'evil\\\' in his opinion or could pose a threat to his plans; to the point of attempting to kill his own daughters. Considering Strange has a grip over Gotham\\\'s law and government with [[spoiler: Ra\\\'s]], at least two major prison facilities already being mixed gender and Gotham\\\'s horribly jaded population...to say that women could not go in Arkham City makes no sense,([[spoiler: Especially considering the FinalSolution for \\\'\\\'all\\\'\\\' criminals]]). As for Catwoman, Harley and Ivy as examples...Strange enjoys interviewing any \\\"freak\\\" (costumed criminal); and considering Catwoman is a kleptomaniac (unless Batman is involved), Harley is a mass murderer and Ivy often fantasized about killing \\\'\\\'all of humanity\\\'\\\' to \\\'help\\\' plants and has killed a [[{{Understatement}} lot]] of people...well, there are reasons they are in Arkham City. And remember, \\\'\\\'any\\\'\\\' crime can get you in there ([[EvilIsPetty or if Strange doesn\\\'t like you]])...even The Carpenter, arguably the most ineffectual of Batman\\\'s villains (though she can make a mean DeathTrap), got locked up in there in the tie-in comics.
