I am not your slave, I am a strong, independent man. And you wonder why there are such rabid masculinists(not sure that's a word.) out there.

Get some sleep, man. I'm not trying to be antagonistic. I'm just frustrated at the "satire detection failures" that have happened depressingly often on this site.
Well, usually when using satire someone needs to have an understanding of what the satire is being used on. The thread owner would have done better if they quoted the last thread rather then sending out a link. Most people, such as myself, don't click on links when posted but I do read quotes. I wouldn't have even noticed the satire if I didn't read every post on the first page before posting like always.
I see where that comes from, but the problem is that the guy being mocked built up his opinions over a couple dozen posts, which can't all be included.
You can quote them all, it's annoying, but I've seen it done.

However, I understood the satire from the very first post on the other thread. The other ones do embiggen the satire, but the first post would have been fine.

No.

Every "guy gamer" has been a "GuY gamrrr" who is a stupid attention whore who places nothing by Call Of Duty or what the fuck ever is the current most popular game to try to get the attention of legitimate gaming women.

Sounds like someone needs a...(damn, it just doesn't translate well...what's the equivalent of dicking? Rimming?) Sounds like someone needs a good rimming, if you know what I mean.

My breasts are like sandpaper. Lots of friction. Because this is what boys want. Huge, sandpaper-like breasts.

I was going to have a snappy comment for that but... OW. That's just... oooowwwww.

In response to ninjastovall0's thread on girl gamers.

Have you ever met an authentic guy gamer? (has adequate background in gaming) and these are the qualifications/qualities for being authentic:
1. They didn't get into gaming because their friends were into it, or because their parents just bought them a console/PC. Basically like other gamers, they saw a game and just intuitively knew they would enjoy it, despite absolutely no social/common experience of it with friends to indicate it might be fun.
2. They actually play main titles like Sims and WoW that sell massive units and have online interaction (sorry CoD, Halo and other ultra-masculine space marine penis-fests, you're not real games).
3. Whatever they like they have substantial knowledge about its past, such as being able to expain in detail the market circumstances that led Origin to agreeing to the EA takeover, the histories of Interplay and SSI and can carry a conversation by adding their own points/knowledge/past.(example: if the XBox/PS2 is their first, they probably can't).
4. They're willing to talk about gaming in public, even when they are trying to pick up a good looking girl who clearly isn't into gaming at a party, and even if most of the people in the conversation aren't actually interest in gaming.

I ask this because the guy that posted this thread: http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/9.262773-Authentic-girl-gamer can't tell the difference between his personal limited experience of gaming (seriously, it seems like he hasn't even been gaming for 20 years yet - OBVIOUSLY he doesn't have the same experiences that I have when I was cranking through the Origin games in the 80s, which makes him less hardcore and, by his reasoning, obviously not a gamer...) and 'being a gamer'.
Yes, most of my friends are "authentic" guy gamers.
Also what's the deal with this "authenticity?" Do you mean gamers who aren't casual myspace or iphone gamers? Because they're casual gamers.
The rest of the spectrum should be classed as just gamers, regardless of whether they play WoW, Starcraft and the like.

Ot: I use very similar standards to his, so lkdjfsalkdjflajdslfkgjalk.

1) I suppose I only got seriously into gaming because my friend was massively into Rome TW... I got a bit into it but not as much as I did into Oblivion later, which I consider my start of obsessive gaming/ taking an interest... So my gaming can not be attributed to my family / siblings but maybe a bit my friends but I suppose the same could be said of them in that our combined interest caused it all.
2) I had all the (original) Sims expansion packs regadless of what my friends had because I was masssively into that game... although I still didn't really consider myself a gamer then. I didn't even know CoD existed then.
3) I don't really remember, but I did have a Sega Megadrive although I was so young I couldn't really answer questions on it. That said I do think I know a fair bit about the N64 despite being like 7/8 when it was released.
4) As I said on the other topic, I am (unfortunatley) willing to talk about gaming in public. Even if it means not getting the girl and seeming like an absolute tool. (Although I am feeling much better about this as I did pull about 3 hours ago. *gurn*)

But basically, I consider myself a gamer because I know a fuckload more than at the LEAST 19/20 people who play video games. I am also a massive nerd, I make no bones about that.

Get back into the garage and make me a shelving unit man-slave.

Seriously. I was thinking, "what is the equivalent of guys thinking that all a 'girl' really needs is an over-sized sexual organ?"

Sandpaper t!t-f#ck.

And society expects you to like it.

A new garden shed, kitchen table, or stereo cabinet? Anything works as long as your not telling me to go fix the leak in the basement again.
I've got it! The equivalent of what we make for women is babies. Just as edible, twice as fun to make and will last longer if proper care is taken.

Owwwww, that's really really unpleasant to think of, it actually kinda hurts to think about it.

Hes just taking a stab at me for a thread I made.
And just like your thread, he is wrong, incredibly elitist and there really is no discussion value to be had here.

How about a draping or engulfing? A huge sagging vagina that engulfs you whole in its mighty meat curtains. It's huge genitals doing what they do best.

Not the same thing. Unless the equivalent you're going for is overflowing guy flab. Talk about engulfing.
