Why are they marketing She-Hulk as some sort of sex symbol? Butt-reveal? Really?

Lets ignore the fact that she looks straight out of the Shrek series, and focus on the actual problem with "Girl Power!" in movies lately-- the first 15 seconds into a trailer and all we get is a butt-reveal.

Then, not a minute into it, a literal QUOTE FROM THE TRAILER "Girl, your ass looks crazy right now!" a few random shots of "HULK POWER!" and then it just goes back to her swiping through Tinder and dating random guys as She-hulk but like... Why?

Is it not possible to have a female superhero without forcing them into the "sexy bombshell" stereotype and have that be their entire character development?

What woman actually feels represented by this? What father would be proud to take their daughter to see this? I know nothing about She-hulk other than "shes hot(?)" based on this trailer; so if someone has some insight I'd love to hear it.

Edit: It sounds like everyone is wayyy too horny for Buff Shrek so I'll just leave this here. I don't know the comics but it sounds like her character IS based on being sexy, so I'll leave you all to enjoy your green fantasy of being lifted by a bigger woman than you- and go enjoy some actual story elsewhere.
