I said come in! posted:I play these games and afterwards do not go off and masturbate to the female characters. So like I said earlier, kinda, if someone is doing this, or see's it as sexualized, then that is entirely on them. This right here, this "it's not a problem unless you make it one " poo poo? It's retarded as hell.

natetimm posted:If they depicted women in outfits that actually represented professional fighters they would be even more naked and sexualized. Minimal spandex is pretty much the norm in fighting sports, adding that much costume is a cover-up if anything, not a blatant sexualization. Yes clothing is never used to emphasize sexuality and lead paint is delicious

Unfunny Poster posted:Really, we should be demanding that EA & the UFC change their video game representation of the overly sexualized female fighters. Hmmm yes you're right an actual woman choosing to dress a certain way so as to better participate in a combat sport is the same as a dude drawing a fight lady in a short skirt

Unfunny Poster posted:That image is of a video game character designed specifically in that way by a mostly male video game design team, not someone in real life. A video game character that is literally just not real person Ronda Rousey, totally the same as a bunch of dudes going yeah and then this lady should have big tits and a short skirt

I said come in! posted:The argument that games are targeted towards men only is really flimsy and there's no evidence to support it. Game developers for the most part do not target gender. Its a myth that has held on somehow despite it never being true. Correct, marketing demographics don't exist, males aged 18-24 are not a bigger target than females of the same age range Jesus fuckin Christ

You said that CoD isn't targeted towards men in particular, I called you an idiot, and then you kept saying the same thing insisting that repeating yourself was proof. When I pointed out that you were making up what I was saying, you claimed I was shifting the goalposts. gently caress yourself

He's also the only non-white person on a staff of about 20 and never says poo poo about it. none of this supports the thing you said

Cardboard Box A posted:ut there's one thing missing from this picture and it's that the one kind of speech reddit absolutely will crack down on with the fury of a thousand suns, it's doxxing. Don't believe me? Back when r/jailbait moderator violentacrez was outed by goons and doxxed by Gawker (yes Gawker), reddit responded by not only deleting all links to the article but quickly autodeleted every new link posted to any gawker article. THAT's how committed they were. So you better believe that when people start posting personal info, the mods and admins will go nuclear on it, even to the point of autodeleting every new post that even mentions her. Reddit actually doesn't give a poo poo about doxxing except to pay lip service unless you're a friend of the admins/beloved member of their cesspool community. VA was the guy who ran most of the really gross subreddits, including multiple jailbait ones, and let's not forget how salty reddit was about losing those. The reaction to Chen's piece on VA wasn't because he was "doxxed" (he wasn't) it's because they were mad that gawker dared to attack this upstanding man who ran subreddits for jacking off to kids
