That's pretty much what things have been reduced to when it comes to gaming. The industry, especially the journalism/consumer side of the industry, has been trying so hard to not appear sexist towards women that every little thing is now considered sexism, an attack, sexualization, whatever. Like someone above said, if Morgan Webb or some other attractive female personality came out and said this against someone like Nathan Fillian, not an eye would be batted. Anything that demeans, brutalizes or objectifies men is totally ignored, and we have people like Movie Bob saying "oh well that's different."Cheesepower5 said:He's not in hot water because of his gender, it's because of the gender of the person he's speaking to. That's just as bad. It's like dropping two people in a warzone for no reason, and saying to the girl: "Oh yeah, here's your bullet proof armour. You get it because you have a vagina."
Sexism, sexualization, misogyny, etc, they're all two way streets. As a woman, I am really sick of this industry and this culture trying to act like we're fragile flowers who need to be protected and sheltered and covered up or else we're being abused or exploited in some fashion. I like Ivy's provocative costumes, I like Juliet Starling fighting zombies in her cheerleader outfit, and I wish that people in gaming would grow the hell up and stop losing their minds when there's a flash of panty on screen.
