I'm torn between her not knowing how sperm donations work and that guy pulling a porn plot-esque 'no you have to have sex with me that's how it works' or her just getting busted for cheating on her husband and this is damage control

i know a couple here where the husband has been through chemo but they wanted a kid and looked at the donation thing, but just like adoption there's a bunch of utter bullshit red tape you have to go through that makes the whole thing basically impossible for a lot of couples.

it was a while ago so i don't remember the specifics, but i do remember one requirement for adoption being that at least one of the parents has to be unemployed/stay at home.

artificial insemination also has its red tape such that a person might want to just find a guy to gently caress on craigslist instead but someone in a situation like this doesnt generally have money enough to sue the guy for breach of contract

How much faith in western institutions do you have to employ anywhere near a sufficient number of people who can read and speak Mandarin?

quote:

Hi guys.I am a post-Marxist from China. Genshin recently changed several character models due to chinese rcensorship . Many Genshin players believe this is all because of reports from Chinese feminists. Chinese feminists have been scorned as “女拳”(Female-Boxers). Some middle-class women feel that sexy female characters in games represent the objectification of women and are the gaze of a patriarchal society. This is really bad.

There is no game rating system in China, and we (no one in power) do not know the details of censorship, or even what department is censoring games. It was all at the whim of the Stalinist bureaucrats. To make matters worse, almost all of the Genshin players ignored this structural problem, and no one tried to solve the problem of the character model being changed. It was all the fault of the Chinese “Female-Boxer."

I was really sad and felt like a part of my life was history forever. And there's nothing I can do about it. It's so painful to be in this authoritarian capitalist dictatorship state that you can't even be allowed to indulge in tittytainment , and most people are as unmoved as zombies. The situation was so bad that Zizek felt That China might be the future of the world, the train at the end of the dark tunnel, a Cyberpunk. If that happens, I'd rather die than live a lie.

Its censorship and censorship leads to fascism (not, you know, capitalist companies being aware that this is problematic and designing characters to be less needlessly sexy just to appeal to a terrible demographic. )

I'm glad that the acting captain of an order of knights and a priestess for a religious order have outfits befitting their professions now.

the post-marxist says the characters are ugly now, so are there any comparisons for us to judge?

You can't even say the characters are "de-sexed" or had their features changed. They're just wearing formal attire.
