Random Thoughts.....What are you thinking?
Josiahkf said: » On that line assuming it's true, idk and idc to check: YouTube Video Placeholder Here ya go. Women in games aren't usually useless though, they're very often strong, independent, black women who don't need no man and actually have personalities and development
Maybe not to the same degree as male characters but even women have a tough time writing women. By useless I mean just there for sex appeal etc That's some kinda shitty Zaku you peasant, not a decepticon
Your leaking gender fluid!? You need to get to a mechanic right away!
I think Anita Sarkeesian represents the "gamer girls" that are looked down upon in gaming communities; those who are entitled and can't handle it. I've gamed with many women and the few who used their gender to imply that they have more right to something or fly off the handle at the slightest joke were usually taken as jokes while the everyday, secure girls were just a part of the group.
Internet trolls feed off of reaction, you start acting like you can't take heat and they start *** with you. Offline

Not taken seriously or discriminated against etc. They also likely get a lot of extra attention sure, but as treated like objects for sex or, as you said by white knights who treat them like royalty because of their sex; both can be unwanted and both are not treating them as equals. Meanwhile no one walks up to you kojo and instantly says "oh you're a guy "? you must *** suck at this game newb. Go make me a sandwich you useless ***." purely because you have a penis.

Though I've heard of women saying they'd prefer a female doctor despite men and women being taught the same things in medical school. "You're a man? You must be bad at delivering babies and performing gynecological check ups because only women can perform those jobs." Offline

Instead, the insults and attacks hit far closer to home than the misconception that girls aren't as good as their male counterparts at video games. And considering there have been studies that show women are generally better *among those polled and tested) there really isn't a need to white knight things in a way that shames gamers of the male gender simply for being male. In regards to Catwoman, her day to day character or personality was extremely conservatively dressed, and equally as shy. So the sleek designed "cat thief" concept of Catwoman's costume was a stark contrast in personality that allowed her to come out of her shell. This fact is constantly glossed over by those like Anita, who focus too much on one aspect, without taking into consideration the entirety of the character; such as their history and development. However, there was also a stigma among women about Catwoman's costume not being "sexy" or "empowering" enough among the female fans in the past. Another fact that has been highly glossed over by people like Anita and Zoey. ***, even other women, "true" feminists included, have admitted that women are vicious when it comes to male sex appeal, and even female sex appeal, or aesthetic appearance.

Either way, Anita is a shitty human being.
I remember when she cancelled on a gamer club at some college when they only raised like 3k of her 5k speaking fee. This conversation is mostly staying on the rails, but it's a sensitive enough topic that it probably belongs in P+R.
