Guys, tell me you see the problem with an entire tribe of thieves... that lives in the middle of the desert...?
Not particularly, no. My intelligence is sufficiently developed such that I don't equate Gerudo with Arabs. Being a mammal with higher brain function is truly a wondrous thing.
Maybe not Arabs, but at least tell me you see a "Belly dancer" stereotype in there. The Gerudos would be at home in an "I Dream of Jeannie" video game on N64.
Yes, I acknowledge that Gerudo look like belly dancers. No, I don't think that's a problem. Simply pointing at something in reference isn't an example of promoting negativity.
Have you ever seen an Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer movie? Disaster Movie, Epic Movie, etc? They all do this thing where they simply reference some piece of pop culture and call it a "parody." A person dressed in a pirate outfit on a pirate ship isn't a parody of Pirates of the Caribbean. It's just someone going "hey guys, Pirates of the Caribbean is a thing that exists! Isn't that funny???"
No, it's not funny, and Gerudo aren't offensive.
So Anakin kneels before Monster Mash and pledges his loyalty to the graveyard smash.

You mean Somali pirates and torrent users didn't go on twitter and complained about it wasn't an accurate portryal of piracy?
The link doesn't really prove anything, all it says is that ''a source confirmed that Zelda U will be shown at gamescom.'' Nintendo, however, has said that they'd like to show Zelda another time this year [instead of E3] iirc. Who knows, might happen, might not happen.

No, I guess you aren't bright enough to see what I was saying. Which in fact was not a racial stereotype, thank you!
It's that a DESERT barren of HUMAN LIFE is a terrible hideout for THIEVES. What do they do all day? Steal from each other? That hardly makes a prosperous society.

It makes sense to me. They go to hyrule to steal from travelers. Their hideout is in the harsh desert, so that it's less likely to be raided. Also, placing it next to what is possibly the largest chasm ever means that all they need to do to keep intruders out is to maintain a bridge.

Your ridiculous baiting isn't fooling anyone. It wasn't 50 pages back with your off-topic "just saying" musings about institutional racism in Zelda games, and it isn't now.

It doesn't really offer any further evidence. It was tbc then, it's tbc now. If nothing is said at E3 2016 (how could it not, NX or no NX?), then I would be concerned.

...Are you sure you aren't a birther, because you see more conspiracies than the protagonist of a Deus Ex game.
So back to zelda....hopefully sheikah returns because i want to know more about them?
I can't even remember what happens to that woman in OoT.
Well the Sheikah are race but Impa becomes a sage and Sheik was actually Zelda.
There is potential with them as they do effect the lore of Zelda and have connections with the Gossip stones, Mask of Truth etc which could be explained and expanded but at the same they work best as mysterious.
