Breasts aren't a sexual organ, regardless of gender. That they are seen as sexual just when they belong to women is the problem. Boobs/=/dongs.

Imagine if a culture saw women's necks as taboo(but not men's necks), and when challenged on that you went "Woah we have to agree on SOME standards, gotta keep those sexual organs covered!".

Remember that one episode of McProtagonist where McCyberExpert came in, and you knew he was cool because he carried TWO laptops. But then McProtagonist solves the crime anyways with good ol' fashion detective work, and talking to people to their face, not to some numbers on a screen?

I never said exposing women's breasts were disgusting, if someone wants to get naked if they have a reason then I have no problem with that; but if making both genders' sexual organs uncensored becomes legal, wouldn't that just make more sexism like when guys catcall some girls to 'show their tits', or is it supposed to have some counter-effect like if we saw more dicks and boobs out in the open we don't think they're sexy anymore? Also, if it's legal, wouldn't if influence kids and make them think 'if they're doing it, then I should do it too'?

Look, I don't care what they do with their bodies, but there must be some standards we can agree on.

Oh, word?

Violence is Sure A Thing but it sort of needs a few bumps in the road as a concept in a videogame to figure its purpose, so you don't end up with games where the violence is just put there to meet an unnecessary quota (I'm looking at you, Deadly Premonition or WatchDogs), and in general poking at concepts in a game does need to incentivized more other than "IWATA CALLED HIMSELF A GAMER... WEAR IT LIKE A BADGE OF PRIDE.... OMG", reactionarism in response to Mortal Kombat getting told off in the 90's and this.

OFF MY MEDS AGAIN PLEASE DON'T USE BIG WORDS

UNNECESSARY LINE BREAK
I ran into a video series before work today. Bennett the Sage does a major voice for it and it's had Egoraptor and the Best Friends Play crew as guests.

https://youtu.be/2X3ssgLP9Cs

While I haven't gone to see what work it is seemingly advertising, it seems to be for animations of cartoon girls and tentacles. If this is true and not just mocking comedy I must say FOR SHAME to Sage and the Zaibatsu. (I don't really care about Egoraptor even if Metal Gear Awesome was some good poo poo.)

I mean maybe I am just an old goody goody fuddy duddy or SA has turned me into someone who would agree with Tipper Gore, but ahh.. Do we really need this kinda poo poo and why does some folks whose work I really enjoy have to basically be endorsing it?

If it's like consenting adult cartoon characters ehh who cares but I don't think jokes about a chained up and obviously naked Raven from Teen Titans the beloved cartoon who is clearly not happy about it is a good thing at all. :smith:

I'm wrong right? It's just a parody mocking this kinda poo poo right? Kinda like Ghastly comic was cept without a Vectrex in his studio?

(And no I have no clue why YouTube even had it to look at. Maybe because I recently refound Sage on the Tube alongside Radio Dead Air as all the video people not on YouTube move back? Because like the previous videos I was watching included some scary rear end Dark5 poo poo that wasn't :tinfoil: nonsense for once even though I wished it was and some videogame analysis linked to that. I saw cartoon news thingie so I watched em. If it wasn't for hurr tentacle violation poo poo it would have been kinda neat. )

Vvvv goddamnit to gently caress. I need to take up drinking I think. poo poo. Vvvv

Rebecca Sugar drew cartoon porn. As long as there's not any other reasons for it to be problamatic aside from just "fictional characters having sex" there's no reason to be concerned about your favorite celebrities endorsing it. Just ignore it.

I've never played Skullgirls but I doubt the fanservice is so overwelming it's that much of a negative. Lots of good stuff has fanservice, like TTGL.

If you wanna knock these people, it's weird their cool with Shadman, that guy is just gross.

I think you mean "action sequences" rather than "violence" for Deadly Premonition. Like, the creepy violence against women was a p. intrinsic part of the point there. The wandering around bashing zomzoms, not so much.

It used to be considered indecent for men to show their nipples, including in places like the beach.

Somehow, men have been allowed to show man-nip for decades without men being allowed to wander around in the nude.
