yes because a 7 to 1 ratio of boys vs girls in the hardcore gaming world is totally not relevant to the way those products look and behave.

even if your logic wasn't absurdity you're still presuming that it's not somewhat unhealthy on a base level for dudes to be constantly exposed to nothing more than pure indulgence without question or commentary or balance

ugh I hate when disadvantaged groups share their experiences. luckily I'm in a position of power to dismiss it as hysterics without consequence

that's very interesting, i never heard of that. knowing you, you probably have some kind of article or statistic to back it up. care to share it?

edit: i do know that in the early days of pong and other so-called "tv games", they were advertised as "family entertainment", but i never heard anything about a shift in advertising as a result of the crash.

@ rj

ok, well I dont see where I pressume that at all.
care to show me?

as far as I know I stated that I like the video a lot better where a scientific oriented woman shows some numbers and talks some sense, compared to a nagging lipsticked girl talking about how all games portray woman as whores.
I also like the fact that the video gives some actual numbers (7-1) on hardcore gamers. Which I think is a very relevant fact as for why woman are background decoration.

I don't say that's healthy nor that it shouldnt be questioned.

or it's like reading a report that says a parasite can be gotten from one cow. not all cows have it but it's still a problem

and then saying "this idiot is falsely claiming that all cows have this parasite, he's cherry picking the data"

i also don't know how food borne illnesses work

ok nobody's disagreeing with you?

in fact people are saying that's the problem?

...and that's the whole point?

.@MhaskarChief With a certain kind of feminist, of course. Not with feminists who truly respect women instead of patronising them as victims

Who are these mysterious patronizing feminists? They don’t actually exist.

I've met a few today.

@Joe for decorating purposes it's better to go to the local Belarus shops instead of that globalist Swedish hut (sneakily you get chinese there)
