And for any Rage Against The Machine fans...

I don't agree that there's no need for violent games. It's a large industry with diverse fans and there's enough room for violent and happy fun time games to exist together.

Nothing's wrong with having a sexy character. There is something wrong about relegating female characters to plot devices and/or sex objects.

"...Spider-Woman is ostensibly climbing over a rooftop but in a way no human being ever would. "

I know this is an issue for many and I can respect that. However, the only way to create change is to CREATE. If one feels this is an issue to address, then get to it! Write some kick ass stories, produce some solid art. CREATE THE SOLUTION. All this blah blah blah. Enough. GET TO WORK. If you don't know how (you're…

The outrage brigade won't stop until comics look become print versions of "edited for content" movies on basic cable. This is why we can't have nice things.

Yep. 10 Stupid Arguments.

1. Men, in general, pose differently when they're being sexualized than women do. Pick up a playgirl to see the difference.

So, I've only read #1 and I'm going to go ahead and point out the obvious flaw in your logic, which I'm going to go ahead and assume is the basis of the entire article:

You point out that because Spider-Man's back is not curved as the Spider-Woman's is, it is not 'the same pose', which I would have to agree with. It's…

"7) What's Wrong with Female Characters Being Sexy?

I was gonna reply, but then I thought...why?

so I can be accused of being a "brah" or an MRA
so I can become a whipping post for all the back-patty-sarcastic-SJW's who just want to writhe in a pool of self congratulatory bliss?

the reality is, you get controversy where you want to find it. If you want to be offended by…

"If Marvel released an X-Men cover of naked Emma Frost scissoring Jean Grey, choosing not to buy it wouldn't somehow make it okay."

women officially arent allowed to dress scantily in comics, apparently... sexual idealization or fantasy should never be allowed in something as serious and important as comic books. its really not hurting anyone letting the boys look at some boobies. if you want sluttier guys be vocal about your requests. if you want…

Did you just passive-aggressively attempt to rebut Maddox? Your arguments would hold a lot more weight if you'd directly addressed the person who single-handedly shut your sanctimonious whinefest down. Instead, we get this indirect attack on "people" who defend comic book sexism.

Check out the video, folks. This…

The only reason the Hawkeye Project makes men look silly is because they draw them like sexualized women, not like sexualized men. The male body is arousing for different reasons than the female body is. It's silly to expect them to look the same when you're posing them sexually. I can want a more diverse and serious…

I wish you could downvote Gawker articles.

"...you're more likely to find mostly-naked models and porn stars in the position than clothed women (and virtually no men at all)."

"Also, while Spidey has a reason for his improbable position, that of holding onto his big ball o' webbed criminals, Spider-Woman is ostensibly climbing over a rooftop but in a way no human being ever would."

I'm unsure how a provocative pose objectifies women. Objectification occurs in the viewers mind not as some sort of external phenomena. Some images obviously make it easier to objectify women, but by saying the image itself is the issue you shift responsibility away from the individual.

What exactly do you want to accomplish with this? Do you want to prevent artist from drawing as they want? Do you want to restrain their artistic liberty? what is your Objective?
