Now, I think the developers themselves mistook Gabe and Tycho's ignorance for maliciousness. But all Gabe and Tycho had to do was say, "We're sorry we offended you, we were ignorant, please stay and join our con." Instead, G and T are shrieking like Katie Couric attacked them with wild dogs, furthering the stereotype…

I guess Mr. Goodcoffee solved the lament configuration, then.

An interesting commentary on the female form as seen through the teenage eye, as an object for the viewer to devour... Aaron Carter's rendition of "I Want Candy."

That, I'm as confused as you about, since as someone else said, the third wave was a response to some of the second waves more extremist outliers, like Dworkin.

Some schools of second-wave feminism emphasize non-violence and passivity as inherently feminine traits, and violence and activity as inherently male ones. He may see this as a built-in excuse to behave the way he does.

Is the insulted character known or revealed to be gay? I'm assuming yes. Does the insulted character take offense, and are we anchored to his sympathetic P.O.V. when he does? I also am assuming yes, so I think we're meant to be offended along with him.

I've had a weird problem with how people tend to percieve me based on my voice. I'm a wheelchair user who can do a high alto to a deep contralto, and I've noticed that older men and women tend to prefer it when I do my best to imitate this character —

The game is about the choices we make, and the ones that are made for us. How each of them opens up new doors and closes old ones, transforming us, changing us, or sometimes, leading us to stagnation. Is our life predestined, or do we make our own meaning? These people don't care, they just wanna kill shit. Somebody…

I don't at all feel like less of a person when playing games. I have difficulty finding a sense of direction and meaning in my real life, and I find that the best games— which the Bioshock series count as for me— inspire me to do something constructive with my life; in my case, I'm trying very hard to reconnect with…

I realize that the violence one commits in the game itself could thematically serve as the canker at the heart of the rose, concurrent to the hidden holier than-thou racism in Columbia itself, as well as a component of Booker's M.O. as a Pinkerton Agent gone bad, but is that, in itself, a justification for why they…

Allow me to be the first one, then: The only reason I can even approach that pose is because of my moderate spina bifida! Thank you, and good night!

Would it be ironic if I said "Amen to that?" Am I using the word irony ironically? I've met Christians who seem to believe that they'll get a free ticket on the train ride to heaven if they can goad somebody into yelling at them, because somehow, if you're the underdog, you're automatically on the moral high ground...…

I don't think she should've gotten any threats at all, but she did violate the charity/fund-my-life rule: She promised a game to the public when she was really promising one to her kid. I worry that she was hoping to ride Anita Sarkeesian's wave of feminist goodwill without understanding why Anita deserved such…

Hey, my childhood was the 80's and the 90's, I know what I'm doing here: Lisa Frank was miles cooler than the Cabbage Page kids.

When addressing some of the more moderate right-wingers and hesitant left-wingers in my family, I do have to make clear that there are some second-wave artifacts that third-wavers should be afraid and ashamed of, artifacts that post or non-feminists erroneously believe characterize the movement as a whole:…

Things I liked: The problem of Crystal really does encapsulate the adolescent male coding of gaming/gamers.
