Because being sexually assaulted is the same thing as leaving your car with the keys in it. Totally.

Every woman in my life has been sexually assaulted. Not all of them have been raped (though there's far too many who have, and some multiple times), but every single one of them has been groped, forcibly kissed, stalked and harassed by strangers yes, but mostly by co-workers and acquaintances. My mother was raped by…

He made comments about her appearance. That's unwanted and inappropriate behaviour in a work place. I would feel nervous in the same situation, and have multiple times. I think you should read this.

Actually, women are far, far more likely to be raped by co-workers and acquaintances than strangers in a dark alley. So being alone at work with a drunk co-worker making unwanted advances toward you is quite possibly the most dangerous situation for a woman to be in. The more you know.

I was dragged to a party by a pushy friend when I was 16, she gave me a dixie cup of Smirnoff ice which I sipped from, and then she said she had to go to the bathroom and disappeared. I started feeling sick, dizzy, I had to sit down.

Because when someone is intoxicated, their behaviour can escalate without warning. Telling a creeper to "fuck off" when he's creeping on you and drunk can lead to violence so easily it would blow your mind. There's also the fact that, by and large, women have been socially conditioned to diffuse situations rather than…

Apparently not.

No doubt...

I just don't get 'hating.' Isn't it exhausting to be so negative all the time?

Agreed. Not nearly enough dong.

You think that's bad? Full frontal Bob Hoskins, and we're talking pretty recent so old man.

However, whatever homosexuals do, they can't win, because homosexuals have the upper hand for being the victim.

Wow, guy. You have some seriously strong feelings about Patricia, I think maybe you should step away from the keyboard for a while.

I know, that's why I chose to do something about it. It'll be a few years yet, but the paradigm is shifting. There are more women interested in game design now than before, and I look forward to the day when going to work looks as diverse as my elementary school classes did. Diversity is a good thing, differing…

Love your comment, I agree with it.

But they're not a majority. The majority of gamers are over 30, fully half of the market is female. These are facts.

I felt like the whole 'dickwolf' thing was blown out of proportion. The original strip itself was harmless, and I say that as someone who has been raped before. What bothered me was the follow-up Mike and Jerry did. It was more than flippant, it was outright disrespectful. It was the first and only time I've ever sent…

I am doing something about it. I'm a part of this industry. You assume I don't know what I'm talking about, and that's funny.

It's hard to say, but definitely in my lifetime (I'm 27). If you think about how far we've come in just the last 20 years, and extrapolate from there... It's not too far off. Technology is advancing at an ever-increasing rate, and it's going to be interesting to see how the general populace deals with things like…

He's talking about the logical evolution of gaming, something akin to The Matrix. It'll happen one day, we'll all jack into machines, or we'll have chips implanted in our brains. For all the talk gamers do about being so tech-minded and advanced, a very large portion of us seem to fear and shun actual technological…
