yea OP is assuming she did because of the porn included in some versions of the manga. Despite the fact that it was smut designed to boost sales and had 0 bearing on story.
>>
>>219020045
It does have bearing, a key aspect of her character is that she doesn't recognize her shell as "her" and treats it like a tool

Major was a dude before his ghost was put into that female robotic body. Major knows it would be gay to let Batou hit it. And Major wouldn't do that to his bro

This was like a rumor/myth about the Major that was kind of hinted at in some incarnations, or like it was mean to be a mystery what Major originally was when she got her body originally because of her accident.

But IIRC it's elaborated that it's not canon even in SAC, or any other GITS media I've seen that delves into it.

I don't think he ever seriously propositioned her.

He may not have felt that their personalities were actually compatible and was mature enough to understand that he could fuck women who looked like Kusanagi anytime he wanted and pursue romantic relationships with women who are more compatible and he doesn't need to try to force a relationship that may or may not work and would definitely create awkwardness and ruin team chemistry during life-and-death missions.

Batou is not a fucking teeny-bopper, he's a grown man capable of seeing a GREAT ASS at work every day, and appreciating the view, without needing to know what it would be like to fuck the woman sitting on it and feel like satisfying that curiosity would be worth throwing away careers that were hard-won and maybe even risking lives for it, including but not limited to his own.

This might not make sense to guys who are trying to sexually compete with their fathers to prove what a man they are to themselves, but Batou is actually not competing with anybody and doesn't need to prove what a man he is to himself or anybody else, and that's why he's mature enough to see Kusanagi as a teammate and friend and not a sexual conquest that has to be conquered at all costs.

He's probably not that enamored with short-tempered Type-A personalities in women, and I think both he and Kusanagi are old enough and wise enough to know that two "alpha" types are usually not compatible with each other and the world is full of both real humans and "pleasure model" sex robots that are much more practicable for intimacy and romance.

I'm sure he prefers women who are more inclined to let him take the lead and who will just laugh at his dumb jokes and let him control the dynamic without needing anything more or different than what he feels inclined to give.

But then again, Batou is a lot smarter AND more secure in his masculinity than 99.999% of fucking incels on 4chan.

GITS SAC is the worst kind of anime.
The kind that pretends it's super serious.... but the MC isn't wearing any fucking pants.

At least with shows like City Hunter, the creators knew it's just a cartoon and is just meant to be fun, and so the end result is a show that's genuinely entertaining with none of the pretense.

Fuck ghost in the shell.

Why would a cyborg need pants?

thinking the two things are incompatible is a western prejudice japan doesn't have

Wasn't there a flashback scene of her in a child robot body? Why would they put a little boy in a girl shell?
>>
>>219023211
My original statement was basically, to my knowledge, her original sex was sometimes suggested to be ambiguous, and also, it's ambiguous to her coworkers, like her past is somewhat of a mystery.

Also, I didn't watch any media past the SAC movie.

In SAC they just show a brief scene of flashback of the Major as a kid in a hospital bed hooked up to tubes and shit, you can't tell the sex of the kid. the only time I've seen the Major depicted in a child's body otherwise is the 1995 movie, but that was at the end of it, and the little girl body was the only model of body Batou could find short notice on the black market.

Pretty sure they said it was a little girl.
>>
>>219019109
Batou only has eyes for his dog.
>>
>>219023717
Yeah they very well may have which is where the in-universe confirmation within SAC comes from. Even then I'm pretty sure the other normal members of Section 9 don't necessarily know it for a fact which was my larger point.

Yeah, and they said she was a girl. That's her on the right.
>>
>>219024194
That was slop created years after the fact. The whole point of the first movie is that it can be any ghost inside that shell and they lose touch with themselves over time. Major doesn't know who they are any more. They could be anyone with any memories implanted. They could give Major a girl body, guy body, dog body, whatever. Major was an experienced soldier like Batou then become ever more cyborgized until there's nothing human left except a few brain cells. And why not give the male assassin a hot chick body? Very useful for distracting men and luring them into a bad situtations. It's all just silicone and metal. The artificial lifeform Puppet Master was drawn to Major specifically because of those identity issues
>>
That kid is gonna regret his decision for the rest of his life.

Maybe.
This is a world with sex bots so it probably doesn’t hit as hard.
>>
>>219027192
>And why not give the ... assassin a hot chick body? Very useful for distracting men and luring them into a bad situations
In that "slop" you mentioned (SAC is not slop, faggot) Batou asks her why she doesn't switch to a male frame for the strength benefits and she demonstrates what you just said by distracting him with her feminine charm as she hacks him to knock himself out.

>>219023948
take it back to /pol/ you weirdo

we’re talking about cyberpunk identity metaphysics and you immediately jump to california doctor conspiracy shit

this is why nobody takes you people seriously

the show literally spells out she was a girl pre-conversion and your brain still goes “secret cabal” instead of just accepting basic canon

log off and rewatch the episode without the tinfoil hat on

I really only care about the 2 Oshii films and never gave a shit about the manga and anime show. Batou came off as a lonesome man that never showed any sexual interest for Major. He’s profesional, committed to his job and good at what he does. He only really loves his dog and respects and cares about Kusanagi as a good acquaintance. Many people like to think everything is about sex and he’s a simp and was in love with her. This is simply not the case.

>>219028958
You will never be a woman though

He was literally in the friend zone and loved it. They should have Scarlett do the yacht scene.
