Makes sense, competition for Ivy’s is getting more intense than ever as the student population grows. If the typical Ivy has an acceptance rate of 10% (pulled this outta my ass) then even as a strong student it makes sense to apply to at least 10.

Does even the average GGer really have a problem with the concept of equality? I highly doubt that. But the definition of equality does seem to change to fit into larger ideological constructs

But what about teh menz right? I’ll just leave this here, from one of the Honey Badgers that just got ejected

Feminism is an ideology - as such its composed of various parts that even the most egalitarian minded person wouldn’t necessary agree with or care about. Also, feminism doesn’t have a monopoly on equality

GTA V is just so massive and gorgeous that it’s still very relevant in the gaming world nearly 18 months after it was released

Exactly, no one said it was innocuous. I understood your initial comment as saying that people were not making any casual links btn attitudes in gaming and real life, and that the commentary on sexism in gaming was merely observational. And that’s a fair comment.

What would be the incentive to get rid of it if it was innocuous? Those Fem Frequency videos specifically framed it that sexism in games is bad because it perpetuates it IRL.

I respect and appreciate that you came out and talked about this issue is a fairly balanced manner. I found you did the same thing when you were talking about Anita Sarkeesian’s 8 recommendations on making games better. I think if GG figureheads like MundaneMatt and SargonofAkkad etc read these articles on here,…

Yeah and you can denote time via distance. Jebus!

Yeah I know it’s frequent. I don’t really care with 7 billion of us already fucking up with Earth, we don’t need that many more of us...

IT’s what I seem to be discovering...

I thought I explicitly mentioned that we as a society had a vested interest in improving accessibility for everyone to safe abortion procedures. Not sure what this comment’s about

Some fine elementary school level false equivalencies. Because getting rid of a fetus growing inside you is like getting rid of jizzed socks right? We definitely need doctors and affordable medicare to get rid of those jizzed socks

I didn’t properly acknowledge your wisdom tooth surgery in my initial comment - but that shit sounds like it was utterly horrible. I wouldn’t wish that on my worst enemy

I thought about it, but I think denial is the best therapy for people like me. I may feel however I feel about it, the important thing is not to project that to others and contributing to making it less accessible for others.

Objectively, I 100% agree with your approach, I think it’ll just take me a while to emotionally accept that that’s the way it is.

I agree. We need more people to talk about it then maybe it’d freak us out less

*professional

We do need to talk about it, improve access to it for everyone and destigmatize it - I absolutely agree. Potential trauma aside.
