Yes, of course. I just think it's TOTALLY outrageous and humorous to witness. Because, in all reality, all this over-sexualized content in games is simply that...outrageous and could be considered laughable. I can remember when I first saw Jade's win pose (you know, the stripper spin down her "pole") I literally scoffed and was like "wtf....MAAAAAAAAAN". LOL.
see my "naturalized narrative" post. this community needs to read some Barthes, lol
yeah... that's what i said... pardon me for not siting my sources. my post is not academically acceptable, lol
dude i totally disagree if you mean sluttily dressed girls or guys have no right to complain about being raped. bottom line is that no matter what anybody does or wears, no person has a right to touch them without consent. just like a car dealership displaying a beautiful, shiny automobile does not authorize anybody to steal it, a person flaunting their sexiness is no green light to rape them. think poorly of them? sure. ignore them? why not. be disgusted with them? if you must. but rape them? never.
You must not have read the page, because your 'fact' is completely false.
i didnt say that at all. i can see how the way it's typed could seem like that, my bad i forgot to add some words when i retyped it because i accidentally deleted the first version.
for the record, this is not accurate. sagging pants were born of two reasons:
fuck they're as academically irresponsible as i am. they never indicate where each source they list interacts with the article. i dont have time to read the entirety of all four of those works.
Drugs, alcohol, and black market organs sell too but that dont make it good.
you've never heard a dude brag about his dick? what forums do you visit?
i agree, most women like attention, so long as it's positive. i think women who use their sex in such a manner do so because society as a whole has kept every other weapon or tool away from them. sadly, it seems most men couldn't care less about how smart, kind, funny, or accomplished a woman is. just about whether they want to pork her or not. so, since most men won't give a gal the time of day if she isn't "hot", can you blame her for using the one thing of value she has? and i say it's men's fault. if men didn't value sexiness so much, it couldn't be used as a weapon against them. just like, for example, you could be offered a lifetime supply of cigarettes. if you don't smoke, it just isn't an alluring offer.
sortof the opposite in a double-negative sense. people portray themselves how they want to be seen. if people want to be taken seriously then they act in such a way as to be taken seriously. like what CrazyBread just posted, i believe that you (bread) should be able to go to a tournament and not have to worry about that. if you're there as a gamer you're there as a gamer and that's all. (back to karried) but when women, as buckley wisely put it, wear skirts up to their twats they have no right to complain about being sexualized. i dont think that's implied. i think that's very explicit. this is my pragmatic non-philosophical solution: act/dress/represent yourself how you want to be treated.
Most Gaming Forums and no I have not! But yeah, Lol. But than again, see, it's a end circle of discussion.you've never heard a dude brag about his dick? what forums do you visit?
I thought the same thing at first then my second thought was "Hmm the people of Edenia probably do some heavy clubbing."
But again, if I ever felt degraded or exploited or in danger I would have found a new job.
Jade is clearly the raver, with dat "glow" stick!
The article I linked to said that it was a false urban legend and gave explanations as to the origins
.
this is the narrative. women have literally everything that men have available to them (and i would dare anyone to debate me on this in any sphere be it social, legal or whatever), but they are taught from the day they are born that that is not the case. it is only when they buy into the historical narrative of their limitation that it becomes the case. That's why feminism is so important. Feminism is a rewriting of the narrative that scripts women and men as equals.
If it's Cage we're talking about... I could make an exception.As a gay man, it doesn't bother me nor distracts me to see Mileena, Kitana, Jade, or even Sheeva dressed like dime store street walkers. However, it is utterly ridiculous. I mean, aren't these women supposed to be skilled and deadly assassins? If I had any control over outfits or victory stances etc., I'd have an alternative outfit for Cage and Jax in NOTHING but a tight speedo showing the outline of their cocks, and when they won the match they'd shake their ass like Magic Mike and give me a nice convincing wink. Now, straight men of TYM, do you see how ridiculous that would be?
um sagging came from prison to tell who were homosexual just to let u know.
