Yes, it certainly does imply that. Truly the height of injustice. I'm making no attempt to hide the fact that I have a low opinion of Kotaku commenters in general and I think this thread pretty clearly demonstrates why. And the fact that people are outraged about someone potentially implying that a certain portion of

Do you need a nap or something? If I'm the most ignorant person you've ever seen, then you need to get out more *platitude abut how all gamers are basementdwellers*. Thanks for being yet another shining example of the immaturity that I'm talking about. Awww, did I insult your community? Did I point out a flaw in your

Well, I'd argue that your focus on me and not on the myriad of other, more problematic responses is part of the problem. I'm responding to a problem. You and your ilk are reinforcing and enabling it. You focus disproportionately on people who make comments that "generalize" but say nothing when truly problematic

Uh, there's nothing wrong with saying "your community has a problem and you should acknowledge and deal with it". I think people should be more concerned with said problem in their community than getting huffy about someone potentially generalizing their community. Because you and others are making this point that we

I was more making a point about people who defend irresponsible parenting choices being immature. And a point about Kotaku commenters being sexist. But and established feminist and gamer such as yourself is probably well aware of the issue of sexism in the gaming community, right?

I've always been perturbed by the fact that some people apparently don't like DS9 because it presented a less than perfect Federation. So, at least the new Trek movies piss off those stuffy "true trekkie" types. They don't do much else for me beyond that, though.

Interesting that you single out my post, which is not filled with even half the stupid and vitriol of other comments. Did you tell the guy comparing my post to racism to be more respectful? What about the guy saying I'm "just a cunt"? What about the guy calling people "stupid fucking apes"? No? I'm not going to play

You felt what about what? I'm asking you what exactly your point is. Because my point was not that if you play these games, you become a rapist or whatever some are disingenuously claiming I meant with my OP. Your comment seems to indicate that you think that's what I meant.

So did I. What's your point?

You didn't kill my argument. You just killed whatever modicum of respect for the intelligence of the commenters here that I had left. Seriously, I don't even know where you people come up with this shit.

You don't get to decide what is and isn't a feminist issue. If you don't like that women want to be treated like human beings, go live in Saudi Arabia or something.

Seems like a reasonable number of people got what I was trying to convey. Thanks for playing. Try again next time.

"acting in an infantile hyperbolic manner"

Wow, clearly you're a healthy human being with no anger management problems or learning disabilities. Clearly you don't get disproportionately angry at people on the internet when they point out that your favorite video game might be lacking in one or more areas. Clearly you're not an example of someone who gets

Thank you for being a shining example of my point. You couldn't have been a more perfect example of exactly what I'm talking about. I'm serious. Thank you sincerely.

There's always a reason to bring up attitudes towards women on Kotaku. You don't get let off the hook because something ostensibly has "nothing to do with women" (a sexist sentiment in and of itself). And yes, I believe that things like GTA could potentially affect attitudes towards women.

Wow, this is the most retarded shit I've ever read.

Your reading comprehension and understanding of humor/sarcasm is sorely lacking, however.

Is that a bad thing?

Pretty much. It was a jab at the things you mentioned ("My parents hit me, I turned out fine. Now let me freebase this Colombian black") and a jab at the issues a lot of Kotaku commenters have with women. I think there's another comment on this article that's like "I turned out fine, now where's my crack pipe," and I
