    Anita Sarkesian makes feminism look bad.
    • Incorrect / omitted / missrepresented facts
    • Missusing words for their negative tone only
    • Biased (pre existing conclusions)
    • Automatically dismisses any oposing opinions/arguments while pretending to want a discussion on the subject
    • Confuses her own interpretation into facts and project them onto everything around her
    • Profits from forcing her opinions onto others
    • Capitalize on inciting anger and hate in order to pretend being a victim (professional victimhood)
    There is just no end to the malevolence behind her. And it is sad because the discussion she is advocating is something that would be worthwhile if everyone is involved. Yes, sex sells. But thats not why i buy games even if i do enjoy kinky character outfits here and there. Good refutal video, one of many:

    the people on my Facebook feed have probably gotten tired of my numerous rants on how full of shite Sarkeesian is. and her cultists on Femblr. i'm going to share one, and apologise in advance if it makes the thread awkward.

    The main reason... okay. And where are you trying to work at? I don't get this logic at all. And for you to say "women bring men, men bring money" re-inforces the negative gender roles. I'm not trying to be femenist in the least bit, I personally think all of that is quite bullshit. I personally feel that if women are getting men to spend their money, then that empowers the woman. Women who are offended by it are the weak ones. Why do strip clubs make so much money? Come on... and why do men eat at Hookers? They want something to look at, and the woman will shmooze her way into it all and get a bigger tip (if she's smart, that is).

    Now, back onto the topic. Women in video games have been getting stronger and stronger as of late. I personally can't think of a game that has a damsel in distress as of late (i don't play a shitload of games, just a few), they've recently been bad asses. So that IS changing... Again, I feel that the women who are looking to the past to bitch are doing just that, looking for a way to bitch about something.

    Anyway, feminism is bullshit, as is misogyny. I vote for humanogyny!

    Among other reasons, yes. Women do get hired for front desk work more than men and the only place hiring near-by is the McDonald's and stores in the mall. I'm not able to work at the McDonald's because my younger brother works there and it is unethical to have family work at the same place especially when the family member has some pull. All the stores at the mall that are hiring are stores looking for people to work the store front and not in the back so yes, women do get hired more because as I said before sex appeal. Places want the 120lbs or less girl over the 200lbs guy to work the front especially for the stores that target the male audience because aguye who sees a pretty woman has a higher chance of going into the store just for the hell of it rather than a guy seeing another guy.

    And if we want to go further, many jobs in the mall are jobs that a guy cannot do because it is a woman's store or he has to have some level of "gayness" to work there without turning customers away.

    It's like asking how many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop: the world may never know.

    This is a pretty good response too. I asked my sister about this and she texted me back "am I supposed to give a fuck?" lmao

    My sister spends her time fecking other players out of it online in the halos and the like, makes me proud to hear her call people a noob, or to hear her bitch about guns, I shall ask her about it but her role models in terms of females in games seem to be lilith and maya from boderlands, both females who can melt you with their mind,
