Street Fighter: Instant Cleavage?

"But why do they do this?! It's dumb!"
-People who won't watch the 15 minute video but ask a question it spends every minute addressing.

My point was about female knights in real armor and not chainmail bikinis, but besides that key point, the great thing about video games is they don't need to mimic the norms of historically sexist reality.

That would just shift the problem. We need a balance of both, not a rule and exception. (this is of course ignoring the historical fact, cause Fun > fact if you're not doing historical accurate story).

I will absolutely take that correction.

I absolutely get your point. But I have a little bit of sympathy with guys on this one, because here's the flip. My partnerbytherecordmachine (wow, that's unwieldy) used to foam at the mouth at the idea of my taking the easiest and most direct route from my then-apartment to his. Bad neighborhood, dangerous, etc. But…

Every time I read an article about catcalls I think back to when I was about 13 and first started getting catcalls while walking down this busy street to the mall. I actually used to think it was this huge compliment that creepy adult men would objectify me like that, and I enjoyed it. I always use it as an example…

I actually think this is a valuable discussion to have (maybe somewhere else though). The Bad Boy thing pisses me off no end. I can't count the number of times I've heard "Women love bad boys" or "Treat 'em mean, keep 'em keen" or some other variation on "Treat women like shit and they'll adore you". It's a…

So many of us are with you, wishing that these ultra-religious asshole idiots would fuck off and die, and take with them the people who vote for them out of sheer ignorance. This is not how most Americans are, just some who are backwards in their thinking. Racism definitely plays a part in this too.

Then introduce legislation in the normal way and see if it passes. Holding the Government hostage for your bullshit beliefs should be illegal.

I finished seeing this movie about an hour ago, and wow. Wow. I could have done without the long exposition to her deceased daughter after the Clooney hallucination, but I get why the background was important to the theme. The movie was fantastic for all of the reasons mentioned in the reviews.

Nothing Sony makes will ever top this one.

I always thought of Cyclops as "Mr. X-Men"

"Guardian scribe" Alice Roberts seems a somewhat dismissive way to describe Professor Alice Roberts. She has degrees in medicine, and anatomy, a PhD in paleopathology, has worked as a medical doctor, lecturer in anatomy, and broadcaster, she now holds a chair as professor of public engagement in science at the…

Guys, listen to me very carefully. If I where in front of you, I would gently cradle that delecate head of yours and hold you close so that you can never loose eye contact with me and could read my lips in case any of these sounds I'm making go in one ear and out the other. Are you ready? Paying attention? okay,…

When she said "no such trope", wasn't she referring specifically to the "damsel in distress" thing?

I think she's correct in that there's not really a tradition of "guy in distress" in fiction, where he has to be rescued by a woman.

That doesn't, however, mean that there aren't other stereotypes about men in fiction…

Nope, sorry. This is now and forever will be the song of Fall.

Its true though, both are basically male fantasies.
