Gensuki posted:LGBT club. Err, OK? I'm going to go out on a limb here and say you are 'wrong', and that that is OK, although 'the dictionary' and 'what words mean' seem a little harsh - these are pretty new words for emerging communities and definitions have sort of changed and developed a lot over the past few decades, so maybe you just had an old definition? The google definitions are in line with what I'm used to; transgender and transsexual. fake edit: haha, just saw your edit. Don't feel bad, this is a place of peace and harmony! Or... something?

Devious Vacuum posted:I don't think Twitch will upload it for me - maybe it's too long? Maybe it's better that way, though. Maybe Twitch knows that no more My Little Pony needs to be uploaded to YouTube. I imagine you could use something like http://www.twitchtools.com/video-download.php to get the videos and upload them yourself.

I... don't want to be a sourpuss or anything, but I'm genuinely surprised at how much praise this is getting. I mean, yes, it was absolutely fun in a bullshitting-over-bad-video-games kind of way, and a good thread, but the sheer terribleness of the messages we send to our children? I guess maybe it just feels like none of this ought to be news to anyone, considering that this is by no means the bottom of that barrel. Perhaps it's that the idea of having kids and what I would hope to teach them and shield them from is a thing I've been thinking about a lot recently, but, people only just learning about this now is actually a little terrifying, but maybe we're just at different positions in our lives. I guess part of me also worries that, if girl games as a genre were not all so incredibly loathsome - a point all can agree on - would the message be as well received? If this LP has got you thinking, and you seek out more things like this (eg feminism), be empathetic and have and an open mind about the issues that people will tell you that they face, because they might not be so immediately understandable. A core issue with things like girl games is the monkeys they put on your back, the nagging thoughts before you take actions and the expectations that you feel other people have of you. The real lasting damage is from the insidious messages society leaves inside your head, mostly when you're young and vulnerable. These stay with you - even when you grow up and know better - they're still there, inside your head, reminding you before you speak up in the board room, or before you post in that application, even before you eat that chocolate bar. You can't really just brush feelings like that off of your shoulders.
