I would far prefer the "mangled penis edition" statue because it's much funnier.

But then what would gaming "journalists" write editorials on game news sites about?

iconized, for a male feminist you sure do know a lot about how women feel and how you should fight "misogyny" in gaming, have you tried ever asking a woman how she feels about this?

Women are blamed for standing up and complaining about gender issues in games and also blamed for not doing enough to stand up and deal with gender issues if it really is that important to them;


if ppl are so passionate about videogames why don't they get useful degrees like the rest of us and try making some themselves? the rest of their complaints are for superiors/studio execs to sort out coz they won't give a fuck what ppl on the internet think.

I am just one of those guys telling you, you behave like an asshole. Women who will say something about misogyny will get attacked by you. Guys who say the same will get attacked by you. You are a walking and talking fallacy, a profanity.

This topic has been derailed deliberately. Anyway Neon you tell me. Why should I have to respond to things you post while so many times you have proven to use a lot of fallacies?

Misogyny in gaming (and other media) is nothing new btw. I guess we became just more aware of it the last couple of years. Found some old research on it (1998): http://videogames.procon.org/sourcefiles/Dietz.pdf
