Why is casual racism/sexism more accepted in video games than other forms of media (these days)?

it is really something else

there's a part where he thinks her being wrong about something (how can you choose your gender but sexuality is inborn HMM?? -- his failure to understand things as anything other than binary is a defining trait of his thinking) and the sudden jump to condescending to her about LOGIC from then on is just so sad. it's all pretty much extremely sad.

Clay, Tuesday, 17 March 2015 00:02 (nine years ago) link

the cultural logic of a lot of PUA stuff (sometimes stated openly) is that a properly-ordered society -- that is, a patriarchal one where women were under control of fathers and husbands -- would prevent them from doing what they do. the ideological justification for serial lying and manipulation of women is that society is ruined and you can do whatever you want to enjoy yourself in the ruins. some dudes need a world-spanning story to buck themselves up for another night throwing out cheeseball lines and bumping into other dudes in the shoulder i guess.

but by that standard, yeah, the famous case of denmark looks like a good case of a properly-ordered society

Before I tell you what she said to destroy my boner, I must state that I never ask for a girl’s sexual history. Unless she’s a virgin, there is no answer she will give that increases my attraction for her, but this girl, for reasons unknown, started offering that history up to me unprompted, first by mentioning her long-time Italian boyfriend. My boner wasn’t disrupted by that, but then she said the following:

“I like trying new things. I fucked a lesbian before, and I also fucked a gay guy.”

Back in university I took a course on mammalian physiology, and there I learned a host of biological processes that can instantaneously change functions like heart rate and muscle response. To put your body in fight-or-flight response, for example, takes a cascade of incredibly complex enzymes and molecules that work through long pathways to achieve a physical response in less than a second. I mention this because blood seemed to shut off from my boner within that time. All attraction I had for this girl was vaporized into ash, without a single conscious thought on my part.

I’m more aware than I’d like to be about the gay lifestyle, the hyper promiscuity of which would make accomplished heterosexual players look like minor league rejects, so I couldn’t help imagine a man who regularly gets ass-fucked or who performs the assfucking having sex with a girl that I was about to have sex with. It was an unacceptable visual.

“Don’t worry, we used protection,” she said, noticing the disturbance in my face. But her words didn’t matter. There was no way I could have sex with a girl who sought empowerment by fucking a fag and then bragging about it to a guy she just met not even three hours before, a guy who in spite of his own risky sexual behavior, would not consciously enter an obvious high-risk situation when condom use and effectiveness is not 100%, especially with diseases like HPV, molluscum, and lice.

No more of a case in British law than anywhere else.

What upsets me is people making a living out of branding us monsters for the games that gave many of us rare moments of respite amidst pain.

Keith Moom (Neil S), Tuesday, 17 March 2015 21:42 (nine years ago) link

Wait, whats he trying to say there, that gg complaints are simply about people *being gamers*? WTF.

Maybe if you are concerned about being branded a monster don't compare someone complaining about a comic book to a terrorist group who literally kills people.

video games instead of having "cool computer graphics" should instead euthanize their players
