Feminism: has it gone to far?

[mr_rubino]

...Myanmar?

Well...clearly. My mistake.
And, guess I'm wasting my time here, but what the hell does that mean?
"It's not enough that you come to my country, you don't even have the respect to learn the damn language! Do you know how much we send to korea every year? I'll have to look it up but I'm sure it's a lot!"

Erm ...Bangladesh? I think you've lost me.

...Myanmar?

EDIT: Um...could you at least give me a hint?
It was a pretty straightforward statement. Women like her assume all female characters are made for men and that all male characters are made for men. My point was, that's crazy. What's made for women? Annoying vampires that sparkle in sunlight?

Yyyyep. Basically.
Kratos and Leon and whateveryousaid certainly aren't made for women. And Boobie Booberman with the camera up her ass isn't. I suppose you could argue Snake might be what with his shameless bisexuality and perfectly-toned ass in a tight catsuit, but...
(Everyone's gay for Big Boss, after all. Just ask Kaz Miller.)

Certainly my ass, leon (re 4 leon) is a pretty boy...not that I'm into that kind of thing or anything.

*snicker* Sure, bubby. In other news, beat RE5 and Chris's gal-pal Sheva can wear a Queen of the Jungle get-up which I assure you is as not-sexist as it is not-racist.

It's idiotic, and the whole game is filled with Isms. Did I say RE5, because I'm pretty sure I was talking about the one where you look at leons ass most of the time (or was that just me?) regardless the camera was pointed there.

Yeah sure, but when you can unlock a stupid outfit for a male it's not called sexism. Fact is, a male does not look like chris. Shiva was a huge annoying stereotype but so was Chris. The african female is an acrobat with a sassy attitude and the american male is a bulky steroid junky who constantly states the obvious and always acts slightly dumber than shiva.
Last line for shiva, I shit you not "this is for my fallen ancestors" WHAT THE FUCK DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH ANYTHING?
Spear throwing, grass skirt wearing african zombies exluded, and it's still a pretty stupid game. If it took place in japan, all the zombies would probably wear business suits and do math to confuse you.

As usual, you're doing my job for me, and it's kinda annoying. But of course, you can't unlock Swimsuit Chris or Stripper Leon, so I don't have to waste a paragraph on that, and thank God for that. And of course the camera was pointed at his back as default, especially during important button-mashing scenes.

Next point: It was for her fallen ancestors. Duh. But of course Chris is the manly man while Sheva has to "prove her worth". (Luckily, the special edition removed her for Chris's bubbly suddenly-blonde love interest... oh and ex-main character. *Snicker* Remember when she had that game to her own and wore a halter the whole time?). Again, this has been pointed out to you multiple times, and you're not gonna understand it if people keep repeating it to you.

Third non sequitur: The zombies probably wouldn't be dressed in kimonos in paper houses.

As a chick, I have to say that instead of bitching loudly about respect, just walk the walk. Act as if you'd like more respect. Be someone worth respecting.

exactly. i see women who screw strangers in a alley or bathroom. if you throw yourself at someone with no respect for yourself or body, why should anyone respect you? i also see women who are not the sharpest knife in the bunch and expect to be treaty seriously when they say "like" at the end of every sentence, and mistake their period for homosexuality and say "i am gay'ing out!" when the time of the month comes. respect isn't asked for, its earned. feminists need to work on the womens' side of things since that's whats holding them back.

You're seriously off-your-tits-nuts. You know that?

*sigh* Samus, what is so horrible about her last "outing" oh wait, because she didn't wear bulky armor she is no longer a strong woman. My mistake.

No, it's horrible because they destroyed the character, by making her a meek little self doubting submissive woman who turns into a child when threatened by a space monster she has already killed FOUR TIMES and won't use her armour until commander manny mannington gives her permission!

The fact is, I could waste my time listing female protagonists but you will just look at the list of games you have never played and tell me they are all sex objects. By that same logic, I can call most of the characters you listed as sex objects. THATS HOW THE FUCKING MEDIA WORKS, GET A FUCKING GRIP.

Yeah, master chief, man of mystery, total hunk. Gordon Freeman? What a dreamboat. Isaac clarke? Hallucinations and being batshit turn me on so. Marcus Fenix? I can't get enough of those steroidy, steroidy abs. Niko Bellic can run me over any time, with his impoverished eastern european charm.

Eh, sure, some of them are supposed to be hot, like Dante, but all of them? If they're hot, it's just another aspect of their design. Most often with female characters, that's what they get in PLACE of a personality.

i don't know if you know but when your super-advanced power armor comes off your confidence drops dramatically. you ain't so tough when a sheet of metal isn't covering you. also isn't following orders REQUIRED to be a soldier? if you disobey the higher ups, you're AWOL and that's TREASON punishable by DEATH. it doesn't matter who it is, treason is treason.

Way to be. You've gotten this far by doing a fine Whirling Dervish impression.

no, i seen ACTUAL women like this. i am not lying.

Unlike your boyfriend there, I can actually believe that's the kind of company you keep.

you are such a *****. I never said all male character are sexually attractive TO YOU. Your such a fucking narcissist, I'm glad you'll never be maried or have kids, that would be a tragedy.

Honestly? Insulting my marriageability? Did we fall into a time hole and end up in 1810?

Well we were talking about man-hating castrating lesbians at some point (no quotes or sources, natch), and yet right now I can think of one person who could stand to be sent through the weed-whacker for the good of society at large... If only he'd tell me which society that is...

 

[ReligiousNutEruption]

Let me ask a question. How many women who identify as feminists openly support misandry? My problem with the word "feminazi" is that it is used by conservatives to describe any woman says something that they don't approve of.

You mean like raiden in MGS2? Or shirtless snake in MGS3? I admit it's not as common but it's there. Games do have a female audience and many of these girls do find some characters sexually attractive. You can say that women are objectified but why is that bad? Woman are, and should be allowed to objectify men in art. A very popular movie right now does that very thing. Humans suck, objectifying them makes them more interesting.

I don't think your argument works when the subject's creator is in the most transparent closet the world has seen since . Obvious fail is obvious. And third-person action games are aimed at women in general so the smartest idea for you would be to continue on this track, no?
Also: Which of these games hides posters of swimsuit girls all around, exploits first-person view to look at boobs (and the occasional man-crotch), and gives you plenty of options for viewing and photographing the female characters at multiple angles? (Trick question.)

But we live in America,

Well that was an anti-climax. (Easy joke.)

You came in rude and hostile, I'm just playing your game.
And no it's still 2010, where spoiled bitches like you are free to complain about how men take all the money you never bothered to make yourself.

the first words in our little conversation are "Your talking out of your ass now" (page 10, post 325, I'll wait til you've found it) so if we want to play the 'who was rude first' game, please don't be playing it on a forum that records your every post.
