Penny Arcade's Gabe has been antagonizing the Transgender and non-transphobic community on twitter today and is enduring the wrath that comes with it. [img] http://filesmelt.com/dl/1371752282262.jpg[/img] [url]https://twitter.com/cwgabriel[/url] This all started as a response to a controversial flash game that taught women how to masturbate and that, as Kotaku's Patricia Hernandez claims, arrogantly assumes that all women have vaginas. [url]http://kotaku.com/a-game-that-wants-to-teach-women-how-to-masturbate-511971045[/url] [quote=Kotaku]Another thing: not all women have vaginas. This fact makes the game exclusionary. Still, it's obvious that the game is well-meaning and there are some issues worth trying to solve here. Schools do a shitty job of teaching anatomy and talking about women's sexuality is difficult. I'm just not sure this specific game is the best approach for that stuff.[/quote] The game in question can be played here [url]http://www.happyplaytime.com/[/url]
To be perfectly fair, what Patricia Hernandez said was indeed utterly retarded.
He's being an ass by antagonising people; though they're being stupid for being atagonised. They should both shut the fuck up and go home.
[QUOTE=Take_Opal;41115271] The game in question can be played here [url]http://www.happyplaytime.com/[/url][/QUOTE] Are you fucking kidding me
Do these people just have too much time on their hands or what Holy shit, the only time a person is allowed to use the word "cis" unironically is when a Roman refers to Gallia Cisalpina
The game isn't fucking aimed at women. It's aimed at people with fucking vaginas. How fucking hard is this to understand? Why does everything have to be fucking related to this? God fucking dammit. I'm fucking mad. [sp]FUCK[/sp]

I don't understand why people have to accept everything? I mean yeah transgenders and stuff aren't wrong or evil in doing their thing but that doesn't mean everyone has to accept that and be OK with it. Personally I agree with him, but there's no reason for him to be receiving the same kind of hate transgenders receive.
who's this?
the fuck does "cis" even mean?
[QUOTE=Cuel;41115342]who's this?[/QUOTE] One of the artists from penny arcade, a very popular webcomic about video gaming
I'm all for lgbt rights but all the tumblr 'privelige' shit gets on my nerves to no end gabes a person too, he's allowed his own opinion just as much as anyone is
inb4 the patricia hernandez Kotaku article [QUOTE=Trunk Monkay;41115343]the fuck does "cis" even mean?[/QUOTE] It basically means "priviledged straight white male" [highlight](User was banned for this post ("Meme reply" - Craptasket))[/highlight]
[QUOTE=deltasquid;41115318]Do these people just have too much time on their hands or what Holy shit, the only time a person is allowed to use the word "cis" unironically is when a Roman refers to Gallia Cisalpina[/QUOTE] until a few months ago I only knew CIS as the commonwealth of independant states. And whenever someone talked about CIS scum I was always confused. Why would they be talking about post commie nations that have played fairly nicely these few years.
[QUOTE=Trunk Monkay;41115343]the fuck does "cis" even mean?[/QUOTE] Cis essentially means "on the same side". In this context, a cisgendered male is a man who identifies as a man and also has testicles. Transgendered is the opposite.
[QUOTE=deltasquid;41115357]One of the artists from penny arcade, a very popular webcomic about video gaming[/QUOTE] never heard of him or that tbh
[QUOTE=Trunk Monkay;41115343]the fuck does "cis" even mean?[/QUOTE] It's Latin. Means "same as", opposite of "trans." [QUOTE=Mellowbloom;41115358]I'm all for lgbt rights but all the tumblr 'privelige' shit gets on my nerves to no end gabes a person too, he's allowed his own opinion just as much as anyone is[/QUOTE] The people calling him out on his idiotic opinion are allowed to theirs as well.
[QUOTE=Trunk Monkay;41115343]the fuck does "cis" even mean?[/QUOTE] cis is Latin and the opposite of "trans" so transalpina would mean "on that side of the alps" and cisalpina "on this side of the alps" these idiots use cis to refer to people who aren't trans, because using the word "normal" would imply that trans people are abnormal it's completely dumb EDIT: don't get me wrong, I'm not saying being transsexual or transgendered is wrong in any way, but using the word "cis" specifically for this reason is just so obtuse and unnecessary IMO
Why was this even a thread? This is possibly one of the dumbest arguments
I have a question, somebody please help me If i have a big, fat cock but balls the size of raisins what does this make me??
[QUOTE=Take_Opal;41115372]Cis essentially means "on the same side". In this context, a cisgendered male is a man who identifies as a man and also has testicles. Transgendered is the opposite.[/QUOTE] Why is cis used negatively then?
[QUOTE=Cuel;41115374]never heard of him or that tbh[/QUOTE] how have you not heard of penny arcade is it gabe or tycho that's in poker night? I can never remember

[QUOTE=Trunk Monkay;41115343]the fuck does "cis" even mean?[/QUOTE] to boil it down simply if you have a penis and you identify as male, you're cis this is treated as a bad thing in the transgender community and by "transgender community" I mean "twelve year olds on tumblr that fetishize homosexuality" if you're a man in a woman's body or vice versa that's fine but some people just take it to these completely bizarre lengths with made-up special snowflake genders and it's just ugh [QUOTE=icemaz;41115398]Why is cis used negatively then?[/QUOTE] because the patriarchy is keepin us down
[QUOTE=Unisath;41115332]The game isn't fucking aimed at women. It's aimed at people with fucking vaginas. How fucking hard is this to understand?

[sp]FUCK[/sp][/QUOTE] I think that saying "This game is aimed at women" is a perfectly acceptable thing to say.
[QUOTE=icemaz;41115398]Why is cis used negatively then?[/QUOTE] Because the people who use it seem like very bitter people.
[QUOTE=icemaz;41115398]Why is cis used negatively then?[/QUOTE] people are retarded
[QUOTE=icemaz;41115398]Why is cis used negatively then?[/QUOTE] Because we have it easy and are privileged Basically if you aren't oppressed you're part of the white-skinned patriarchy and you're the cause of all problems ever
