I don't understand... are you trying to sell us a book or is this the political section all of a sudden.

I don't understand why some men are practically scared of women.

Ugh, saddening, this man. This likely GROWN man, acting this way.

You are just griefing people. Attempting to dress it up as something else is if anything worse than what people like Shrine are doing.
What sounds worse to you, a guy who is mean to people every so often when life has gotten him down, or a guy who is nice to most but reserves a special kind of hatred for people based on some arbitrary feature (race, religion, gender etc)?

Cleary the latter is the better guy, obviously. You might be able to convince him than what he is doind is stupid. The former is way harder since he is just mean to everyone. lol.

Total moron. He SORT of has a point about the Twitch TV thing though.

The people who get tons of views are the gamers that are actually good at the games or have great personalities that people want to watch. Sometimes though, I'll see streams with thousands of viewers with a thumbnail of a girl in a tank top with maximum cleavage playing averagely and not even talking. What do you think people are watching for? If there is no amazing gameplay or commentary it can only be one thing. Just read the chat section to see what they're really thinking.

I'm not scared of women, I have many female guild members in WoW that can kick my ass but if you're flaunting your boobs for views then I have no respect for you. Do what makes you happy, fine but your 'fans' and your channel can go fade away into mediocrity.

I would like to point something out. Anita Sarkeesian wasn't the subject of so much hate because of her suggestion to critically look at gender roles in games. It was because she was (is) a feminazi, someone that actively closes off any and all remotely negative feedback, gets her followers to bully some individuals that gave negative feedback, and scammed thousands of people out of their money with her kickstarter. All under the excuse of a (very) good cause that would rile a lot of people in right away.

Don't get me wrong, most of the hate she got was totally wrong and even outright disgusting. But it wasn't because of what she claimed she would be doing.

This.

Also, people seem to automatically assume that you're saying that all girls who play video games are fake or are disingenuous if you point out the relatively small number of people who are being "cam whores".

I don't think that all women who play video games are doing it for the attention, I don't think that they are all pretending to enjoy a pastime and I certainly don't want to forcibly remove their "gamer cred" or whatever. That's just ridiculous.

But everyone seems to jump down my throat whenever I point this out... let's see how it goes this time! Flame shield activated.

I was hoping for a thread about Dune. Son, I am disappoint.

Less misleading thread titles can only be a good thing.
