Title Nein

I have an issue with the idea that “trash talking” is perfomative. This presumes that we are able to compartmentalize emotion, which is not true. We can repress emotion, recognize it, then choose how to behave, but that’s hard to do.

It doesn’t have to be a part of it, but it *is* part of it. When male (and even female) players shit-talk one another, the language is remarkably gendered: competitors are called pussies, winning is often referred to as raping another player, and any number of comments are made about the sexual behavior of

Considering Gawker was found guilty, you can’t really say it was meritless.

ITT: A bunch of people missing the point, and then blaming you for their strawmen/misinterpretations/projections, even when you have been as clear as possible, from moment one.

This is about all characters, not just the player’s character. I’ll agree with you if you are just talking about the person we play as, most male and female characters are fit. It’s hard to have Nathan Drake or Lara Croft be out of shape, considering what they have to do in that game. But there are tons of NPCs and

While this is true athletic builds tend to not be super curve around the bust and butt due to muscle gain. Typical female character design tends to be more supermodel then athletic then.
