BottledBodhisvata posted:Pretty sure you just restore the monarchy in that, don't you? You just destroy the OTHER Monarchy or some poo poo. Why does Anita even want the Princess to abolish the monarchy at the end? It makes no sense in the larger story. It's not like the system of government was the cause of her problems, she was deposed by a (presumed) military junta, not another monarch. What would abolishing the monarchy achieve in regards to the Princesses' actual storyline? Is her fantasy medieval kingdom even capable of creating and sustaining a functioning democracy? It may be that Anita believes that women as a social group were largely underrepresented in monarchic states, thus monarchy equals male oppression. She uses this concept of a princess abolishing the monarchy and living happily ever after as a symbol for women's rights, but in doing this she takes monarchy out of context, brushing aside the social, political, and economic circumstances that made monarchies necessary in history. She ultimately winds up twisting a part of history for her own ends in a radical discourse, much like various extremist groups have historically done through their own propaganda. I too am gay, is what I'm saying.

Brannock posted:let alone take a feminism/women's studies class in college I'll spoil it for anyone that hasn't taken one of those classes. What they do is look at magazines (you know those colorful things that sit on store displays and people stopped buying when the internet came out? those crazy things are still around) and they discover in these very important magazines a conspiracy in the lovely pictures of semi naked women used to sell skin cream and beer, or photoshopped on the covers. It will really make you think of ways to stop the oppression of those loving magazines FOR GOOD. Now they've moved on to videogames, something as serious as magazines, I can assure you.

She uses more than one example of dead prostitutes, how exactly would one explain away all the dead prostitutes in a video game looking like they are just regular woman walking down the street when prostitutes by nature wear clothes to exaggerate their looks.

Clearly all video games should be analyzed by a team of feminists, animal rights activists, black professionals and other members of the social justice community before they're cleared for release.

I'll go with the simpler answer that Anita believes monarchy is wrong and the princess in her game idea is her power fantasy so of course she would abolish it.

Because If you think ad campaigns are ever going to not be engineered towards appealing to the majority of the market (which is still males), your being delusional. Anita does have some good points, to bad they are buried under a massive pile of extreme negativity and poorly laid out arguments a 1st year sociology or philosophy major could deconstruct.

Alexzandvar posted:Thinking dead woman's bodies are at all attractive to men, or woman suffering as part of a narrative is bad even if it's necessary to help set the tone of the world the game is set in. She also tends to misrepresent the intent of her actually reasonable critics like sex positive feminists who are more concerned with woman's sexual liberation (IE have strong female characters, who cares if they are hot or not) than viewing every hot woman in a video games as an assault on woman everywhere. But a dead body can still be sexualized. It can have attributes that we recognize as sexualized while not being attractive. Sex-positive feminism is a thing, but I believe Sarkeesians argument is the requirement for women to be sexualized to be allowed power, that is the power arrives only through sexual attractiveness, where sex-positive is about the right for people to embrace their sexuality without judgment, but not the requirement to do so for respect.

A dead body is one of the extremely few things that cannot be sexualized, because by pure human nature we dislike looking at dead people or even considering having sex with them. Sure you could say a advertisement that utilizes a female corpse in a compromising position is inappropriate, but in a video game were it's simply part of the atmosphere it's entirely appropriate. If you have zombies on a beach, some of the woman zombies are going to be in Bikini's, this is not some agenda to sexualize the dead woman, but to keep the tone consistent. It would be stupid to make every female corpse on a beach wear normal clothes or a 1 piece. It would also be equally stupid to have a dead prostitute in a whorehouse be dressed like she is going to a business meeting.
