Actually not insulting at all it turns out. I've been reading up on something called furries where people believe they're the reincarnations of animals, and actually believe they are an animal.

#1, that's incredibly wrong.
It's a shame that something like this exists.. We continue to be innovative in developing ways to efficiently kill each other.
There's nothing to see there now as Microsoft were mature enough to change it. Thankfully they saw the problem and rectified it.
"people who go out of their way to be offended"
It appears the dudebros have turned up.
Wait, do you think there are women out there that support the big pillars of misogyny/patriarchy?
"Hi, you're a woman, you like one of this list of things! I'm a male, I like this list of things. But be careful all that we are must be in these lists"
Oh, one of those "it's not actually this it's the total opposite" despite it causing such a fuss that Microsoft themselves are changing it. It's big, it's bad, and you can't see it.
Do you live in a pretend world where some women don't contribute to the patriarchy?
Jezebel arrives the same time as "1950's marketing guy" usually. Perhaps the problem should be stemmed?
I'd say it completely goes against their advertising strategy of "appeal to everyone". But they also had crass gender stereotypes in another advert of theirs recently. They're getting quite poor.
As a female gamer I found it annoyed me reading that. Trust MS to be so condescending.
Horrible. This really doesn't have much place in 2013.
A lot of people don't like it. Are you a fedora certified dudebro or something like that? that's the vibe I'm getting.
That's a shame but it looks like it's working a LOT of people are cancelling orders because of this, my wife wanted an Xbox 1 but missed out on the day 1 preorders, but cancelled hers after this farce. I wouldn't want my money supporting such a clown campaign either.
The text in that is just gross.
THOSE SEXIST BASTARDS
What era are you from?
