Answer: None.

On my maternal side grandmother caught diptheria and later measles. My mom, aunts, and uncle caught mumps only because it hit right after they got the immunization (meaning their bodies hadn't had time to process). The worst I got was a case of the chicken pox in 3rd grade, and that consisted of nothing worse than

Add insult to injury, not only are the ads pitifully sexist...the games themselves are TERRIBLE. I started up GoW:FA and immediately found myself in the clumsiest, most insulting tutorial. I got through it, saw what the gameplay was like...and uninstalled.

Porn does not, by definition, NEED to fulfill male fantasies; women can enjoy performative sexuality and should not be shamed for doing so. In practice, however...porn generally DOES serve primarily to fulfill male fantasies. The "what cost your soul" moralizing is misguided in concept, but it's valid to point out

With men there's often an expectation that we can handle it, that we can defend ourselves. Another facet of the same toxic expectations. As you point out, threats are only taken seriously when they threaten authority.

Your mother spends every day wishing she'd swallowed.

Someone on Twitter pointed out that there's not a single male-led property that couldn't be potentially improved with an all-woman reboot.

This type of thinking is as ignorant as it is toxic.

Hi. Zoe Quinn, Brianna Wu, et al, are STILL getting harassment from GG on a daily basis. That you can comfortably ignore this leaves me with little sympathy for your butthurt feelings at having to recognize that GG still exists.

The subtle bigotry of low expectations, smugly asserting that the masses on the internet are incapable of achieving a higher standard of interpersonal communication. I assume, of course, that you hold yourself above such things.

Games are an art form, which means they're as open for critique as anything else.

Yes, men need to fight for their God-given rights, constantly being taken away

HOW DID YOU NOT INCLUDE DRAGON PISS?!

Monogrammed Thermosery is the name of my Garrison Keillor thrash/polka cover band.

Could have actually been slightly clever and gone with "Puppenmacher".

Someone once found a flaw in John and Chrissy and then that person was never seen again. Not kidnapped or killed, the universe simply rejected their existence.

Thanks for answering my question. Cheers.
