So any valid argument is mansplaining now?

I’m so old dude. Old as dirt, I made $.35 an hour in my first full time job. That’s $20 a week with overtime. People talked down at me, and not just men, women, in fact, were the absolute worst.

It’s a feedback loop. They can call someone for mansplaining and if the man does ANYTHING other than politely accept the accusation, they are then further guilty of mansplaining. It’s a tactic to control the interaction. The example above is simply patronizing condescension and happens all the time to men/women by men…

At least you were offered a sensical explanation of sorts. I have literally been told a few times that it’s literally any time a man explains something to a woman. And my incredulity at that explanation has usually made the whole situation worse. Ugh.

I am a male engineer who works with plenty of other male engineers and a few female engineers. Lots of people do this, it’s not exclusively something men do to women. Actually I mostly get it from sales people, they have the sort of ego and drive that has them talking over people a lot. It’s not particularly sexist,…

I mean, there hasn’t actually been a “Battlefield 1" yet and since they’re going back in time it makes sense to a point. Up until Battlefield 0 with the Civil War and then Battlefield -1 with Revolutionary war...

The game does look good, but when it comes to playing something like Chrono Trigger............ I’ll just play Chrono Trigger. The game has an irreplaceable charm that just can’t be done with better graphics or different characters and scenarios.

How about when someone uses it to upload malicious code for the masses to consume? This isn’t just about getting lame not-games onto steam.

eh, I don’t know. You never know if you actually offended someone, or if they were just correcting a mistake you made. So by offering the apology that way it means, yes we messed up, it will be fixed, and IF we also offended you, we apologize for that as well.

Fallout: New Vegas and Knights of the Old Republic 2.

Wasn’t worried about it until you said not to worry about it.

Maybe Lily Herman should ask better writers about the difference between jealousy and envy.

I think you might need to Moove on.

I vote for Two Broads in a Basement .
