Big Boobs- why do people complain?

[Beryl77]

I don't mind big breasts, it's just that there are so many, it gets embarrassing. It makes me wonder how the devs view customers. I know you said, they're in the minority but your argument is pretty weak. How is one game representative for all other games?

I don't actievely complain, I just don't really see the reason.
I think it's overused and unnecessary, I welcome some eye candy but it seems that the games industry wants to give me diabetes.

I don't like big boobs because I don't like big boobs. I'll take the pettanko, thanks.

I don't seem to play those games myself I don't play many fighting games anyomore so I'm not exposed to it too much. If it is an issue for you don't pay for those games. Vote with your wallet.

Breasts are like wide hips a "sign of fertility" and is there fore a trait that is attractive to males. No, it is not something men go around thinking about, all we are left with is "bewbs are awesome"

It's a secondary sex characteristic that has developed, yes. That doesn't mean that it as a "fertility symbol" is a good thing.

That advantage you claim breasts have only exist because women have them. Men wouldn't be any less attracted to women if women did not have breasts or wide hips.

Also, I know plenty of men who don't like large breasts. Just like there are plenty of men who fetishize large breasts, there's quite a lot of men out there who fetishize small or flat chests. Or wide hips, for that matter.

attractive traits and useful traits doesn't always go hand in hand. I do not remember the name of the moose who grew bigger and bigger antlers every generation, because it was the males with the biggest antlers that got to mate. But at one point the antlers got so big that they died out due to not being able to move.

Right! And breasts aren't useful in any way other than being considered attractive by some people. Which wouldn't exist if they didn't exist.

The expectation to have large breasts is harmful for women. And it would hurt nobody to decrease it.

You seem to counter argument, an argument I made against the statement "Large breasts is an evolutionary flaw".

And I pointed to facts which states that breasts do indeed have an evolutionary positive side, which may or may not be the logical choice if you would choose the evolutionary path of the human race.

That doesn't mean that I say "All woman should have large breasts", but that doesn't change evolution.

It's called pandering. It's a natural program for human males to be attracted to "Larger" breasts because of natural selection.
However this is something that can be changed in preferances but still remains a deep seated value.
Remember kids
Sex sells.
I can tell you right now that If Ivy had boobs that large she'd have serious trouble jumping or running around.
Those things are monsters.
I dont care if a character has big boobs or not just as long as it fits the character design. If all the characters have huge breast sizes, it only reinforces to people like me that all men are perverts. People like to blame me for being "sexist" and "stereotyping" when I talk down about how most guys are perverts. Do I blame them? Machoism in society forces them to be that way.

It does kinda suck for a female gamer to see that all the time though. Personal experiace in 3 ..2..1..
Im flatchested(AA Cup so STFU you), so seeing all these girls with giant giggling tits makes me pissed off.
"What no love for the flatchested girls? you know thats a whole fetishism in japan damit!"
I can't help but be lefted thinking "Maybe i'd feel better about my self if my boobs were bigger..."

I don't see a serious issue with giant boobs. WHAT I DO HAVE AN ISSUE WITH, is the bouncyness of said Virtual tits.
Boobs dont bounced like that, Thats sick and perverted and.... entrancing, i mean distacting.
Seriously
I dont see why EVERY girl in these games needs to be wearing a visible thong and have boobs that sway like the ocean when shes standing and doing her idel motion and bounce like water balloons when shes running around.

Now don't get me wrong, I wouldnt mind seeing that every once in a while, I mean Dead Or Alive dementions was screaming "3d Boucing boobies!" so I fell for that and reserved it with my 3DS, and I wanted a mobil figting game.

But Everytime? Seriously every game that is capable of viewing a girls chest, that has the graphics and phyics engine to do so has applied it to the female breast function.
Seriously, even the MMORPG and 2 MMOs i play are guilty of it, and one of them is suposidly designed as a kiddie game(uhuh sure, not with those game mechanics and DnDs boobs boucing around like that.)

In hindsight... Most men are perverted because they are wired that way... but not all men prefer gigantic breasts. Take me for example I am a huge pervert but I focus it all towards my wife (who has B cups) and anything bigger would get in the way of me being close to her. Plus it adds to a cuteness factor which most men find irresistable... there is nothing cute about laundry bags for breasts. Trust me not all men are pigs... have some faith in the 10% of males that are genuinely good people. But im not ignorant to the fact that most men see women as objects... not human beings. The most attractive feature for me has got to be personality and sadly that is what is lacking in most games and that puts a bad taste in my mouth when thats what they think women should be like.... it's truly putrid.

There was much hilarity to be had when The Sims 3 left a 'boob slider' out of the game because they thought it was too adult.

Yeah I better wear body armour when I go see my little niece and nephew just so they don't see my evil boobies.

They put it in eventually though.

Boobies aren't bad put when they are the only thing about the character that's when it's a problem.

When Namco are making posters with just Ivy's boobs on and not even her face. That's when I say 'Yeah...sexist much?'

 

[RelexCryo]

I gotta ask, am I the only one getting really, REALLY tired of this discussion?

I've been a gamer a long time. My first "console" was a commodore 64 that my dad used to write games on. My first actual console was an Atari 2600. First PC game I ever played was on an old Windows 3.x IBM machine. I've been gaming a very long time, but until the last few years I was never really involved in the gaming community. Then I joined the escapist and subsequently a lot of other communities and really got involved in a lot of it. And I've been listening to this sad agruement for long enough.

Here's what I think. I think that all these women that are complaining about the breast size in games aren't offended. They're jealous. They're jealous that their breasts aren't as big. They're jealous that their boyfriend wants to play games rather than spend time with them. They're jealous that they have something to compete with in society. Well, here's a news flash: We ALL compete in society, be it in breast size, penis size, status, income, possessions, what have you. Jealousy is the only reason I can see that this arguement keeps getting dredged up and I mean dredged up literally out of the bottom of the septic tank because every time it comes up it is the same shit all over again. "Women are being objectified!" "Women are being opressed!" Women enjoy the most freedom in the US and most other 1st and 2nd world countries than they ever have in the history of this PLANET, and that's a long damn history to compare it to. So since we can throw out the archaic, 1960s, bra-burning feminist-esque tirade against video games, the ONLY thing I can come back to is the fact that women are just plain jealous over a bunch of pixels.

Time to grow up, bitches.

And I mean that seriously. Games are not going to change for you, not the way you want them to. It's time to grow up and face facts. Men like breasts. They like big breasts, small breasts, your breasts, their breasts, unless they're gay they like ALL breasts. I think Jeff Foxworthy said it best, "It could be some old biker chick, you know they're gonna hang down to here. She says 'You wanna see mah titties?' 'Yeah I do.'" This whole inferiority complex that you're using as a crutch to launch some kind of crusade against the persecution against women in video games is a fasade. There are going to be big breasts in video games, just like there are going to be big breasts in the real world. So if you're going to decry video games for making women look bad, you might also want to go after all the women in the real world too. Afterall, those women that get breast implants [http://www.esteemstudio.com.au/t7breastaug.php] are just doing it to get the attention of men! And those women that were born with naturally huge breasts, well they're just a genetic abnormality and should be ignored!

Bottom line is this: it's time to grow up or shut up. If women want to spend the rest of their lives complaining about the digital women in video games, I'm tired of listening. I'm tired of listening to the same tired arguements over and over by people with no backbone and tissue thin skin that choose to wear their feelings right out there on their sleeves with a sign that says "Hurt Here". The world is not going to change just because you don't like a part of it. If you're jealous because someone else has bigger breasts than you, you have two options. Either start stuffing your shirt, or if you got money start stuffing your breasts, OR you can do the sensible thing, be an adult and move on to something that ACTUALLY matters. I'm sure you can find something once you stop acting like a petty, spoiled child crying because you weren't born with the best toys.

I saw a tv show once with a women that had MMM size breasts. That is not a typo. Her breasts seriously were the size of beach balls. How come I haven't seen THAT in a video game?

too much ranting..,

Here's what I think. I think that all these women that are complaining about the breast size in games aren't offended. They're jealous. They're jealous that their breasts aren't as big. They're jealous that their boyfriend wants to play games rather than spend time with them. They're jealous that they have something to compete with in society.

Most of women who undergo breast implant surgery were not merely to impress their boyfriends or partners. They do it for themselves and not to conform with the unfounded beliefs that women existed to please men nor the society.

Do not necro. Necroing is the act of bringing up old threads. This is an old thread, please ignore the posters on it and let it die.

 

[Auron225]

I don't really have a problem with it - its a bit stupid if every female has them, or if they're truly a stupidly big size. Bleach for example? I know its an anime, not a game but still. Orihime, Mastumoto and Nel - all have boobs where each one as at least the size of their head. I mean, why? Why do they need to be THAT big?

Whats more annoying though is when a character with watermelon boobs has no character other than "I have watermelon boobs". That is her character - her background? her personality? Who gives a crap, she has watermelon boobs. Her talking would only distract the audience from the watermelon boobs.

EDIT: Ahahahaha!! Man this thread is old! How did it come back!? =P

 

[DaKiller]

Boobs to me run the same rule as the penis, I'd look ridiculous with a 16-inch penis so it only makes sense that a woman with triple G cup breasts should seem unappealing to me.
