Minneapolis can finally marry St.Paul!

Rainbow flags are actually a symbol of gay pride. Fried chicken and watermelon and affinity for mathematics are untrue racial stereotypes.

Now our Castle is in another princess.

I have a 3DS and Vita. This is currently my favorite handheld generation, and I am satisfied with both of my purchases.

This is so wrong... the man shouldve wallowed in his extreme failure instead of being bailed out. $50 he'll do it again, no wait... $1251! IM BETTING ALL MY LIFE SAVINGS ON IT!

I've often said that women and minorities are obviously mythological, otherwise, why would their concerns be dismissed so easily. It's hard to be a black gaming female some days. It's not about the majority being cool with a slur, it's the message you send to minorities. It's about pissing off a customer base that…

Our primary campaign(s) are set in a homebrew setting that our middle-aged GM made with a few friends many many years ago. Some elements from different settings are in it, as well as a few from novels he's liked over the years, and it's grown and changed with every game we've played, incorporating the stories and…

Man, I was nine when I bought that game. It might of been a great game but it was a horrible, horrible purchase for a nine year old.

No, playing a game doesn't make you a misogynist haha. But the sexism in the game isn't PART of the game. It's not an objective, it doesn't lead to any end goals. If you have to shoot 10 enemies in a stage to win, that is a mechanic. If a woman is designed unrealisticly to appeal to your dick, I'm guessing that…

Because it's not about being whimsical vs. shunning fun for seriousness. He doesn't want to be seen playing it because it is shaming and degrading women, not because it's cartoonish. There's actually a difference there. This quote is being misused. You can have childlike wonder and lightheartedness without being a…

No. I'm suggesting that labeling the heterosexual, cisgender male perspective's overt hyper-sexualization of the female gender as a "power fantasy" is inherently silly.

Being beautiful as a woman has nothing to do with appealing to horny men, and vice versa.

Some have pointed out that the dwarf character—a shirtless warrior with disproportionate muscles—is just as sexualized and over-exaggerated as the sorceress. That's true. He's also straight out of a straight male power fantasy, tailored for men just like the sorceress's skimpy clothing and ridiculously jiggly breasts.

His post is certainly passionate, but its arguments are not well-reasoned by any stretch of the imagination. The argument that murders should not get media coverage is specious at best, as is the mental health argument. Most gun violence isn't committed by the mentally ill. Yes, the mental health system in America is…

There, I fixed it for you.

A few things:

i like hearing about people's different experiences and perspectives, so i enjoyed reading the article.

This is incredibly easy for you to say in your position of comfortable majority as a hetero male. Extremely small minorities like transsexuals face misunderstanding, prejudice, and even outright persecution at every junction of their lives. The reason you so inconveniently hear about it all the time is that the GLBT…

Well, to be perfectly honest, straight identity IS shoved in our face all the time. This person is transgendered. Nowhere does it say she's into kinks or fetishes, or that she's doing something that isn't normalized. If anything, stories like this help normalize the way people see transgendered men and women. When you…

You are contradicting yourself. This is how social acceptance is created. A good majority of people's opinions on societal norms come from entertainment. No one is shoving it down your throat or yelling at you about it. They are creating awareness and trying to bring a sense of normalcy to a life style that is still…
