I love how this sentence can be applied to the worst things of History :

So... What happens during this month? Are black inhabitants required to freely work for white citizens and forcily speak with an atrocious accent?

The biggest problem of Pixels is just Adam Sandler. He makes comedies for white straight thirty years old kids sticking with the same lame jokes time and time again.

Shut up America ! The game is not available in France until December 2016 :’(

ANIME IS REAL ! (But it doesn’t mean it’s tangible or true). Your love for someone else is also real.

Damn his scenes with Sakura are always hilarious and “ooowwwwwww”

Yeah, since when rational facts win over rotten ideas?

Yeah, you’re right. The problem here isn’t letting people wear what they want but people judging (and bullying) them for that. If you want to change something is the acceptance not hide your preferences.

I find Wisecrack to be very wise here :

Am I the only one thinking there could be a shorter name than VRMMORPG for those kind of games?

Kids are heavily gender pressured by society. Being a BOY, being a GIRL. Immersion in a fiction is highly decided if the sex of the main character matches yours.

Samus as a girl was just a trophee for players and a little troll from the devs of the game. (Actually Samus appears with a nice sexy outfit in the first games, so it was intended for males players to think ‘hey, nice body’)

Yeah, where are those times when you could violate and hit women without restraint. Damn dude, we had fine balls then !

Well, as 95% of main characters in game are males, I suppose your son already feels good about his gender.

The player choses. In this case, his daughter. If there is nothing indicating that the character is a boy or a girl, his daughter would probably be playing link as a character and would probably think it’s a girl as she is impersonating it. Giving choice or not giving clear gender allows a free immersion.

If Zelda was a boy and Link a girl, things would work too.

You don’t understand, fictions are received very differently by boys and girls because the majority of them have been written by male authors. Why is it not a problem in Harry Potter? Because actually, Hermione is a well written character that girl can look up to. When I read Harry Potter, I impersonated him, when it…

Of course it has. As a little boy I loved to play Link in the first Zelda. And actually my sister didn’t found interest in it because she couldn’t IMPERSONATE the character as I was considering it a boy, even if she were controlling it. You’re imagining it’s not a problem because you’re a boy and don’t care at how…

Well, when I was a kid an playing the first Zelda, I never thought Link was anything else than a boy while reading the text. And for my little sister? Playing that little boy didn’t interest her, she prefered to play duck hunt.

This one is an improvement, for little girls playing it. Of course you don’t care, you’re a boy.
