[QUOTE=MisterSjeiks;46961501]I wish someone on TV did a live bait and switch on her, like invite her for a live interview to tell her story but when she's done they start asking the [i]real[/i] questions, ask for real proof and so on.[/QUOTE]
supposedly colbert did something like that that was unaired, asking her "do you think video games cause people to be violent?" to which she responded no. he supposedly followed it up with "then how can they cause misogyny?" which she supposedly floundered with, but as i said it was unaired so that may be untrue

then why reply about it or make an argument about it if you're not going explain.

Where the hell did I post that I want to be argued with? I literally just said "Both sides are retarded" that isn't me inviting anyone to argue with. I'm posting a thought. I don't see why I have to explain why I posted that. This is one of the many reasons why the GG side is fucking dumb, you guys expect everyone to argue with you if someone post anything that goes against GG, quit it. It's not helping your case.

Usually when people state something they have a reason to do so. What would posts be considered as other than spam if that weren't the case?

If someone says a movement is dumb, they better give a good reason for it, the same goes for saying people against it are dumb.
You're on an open forum, if you don't want to debate, don't reply.

If you aren't going to put the energy in to make decent posts why bother posting in the first place?

No one is expecting an articulate 12 page essay on "why everyone but me is retarded", it just seems like a pointlessly antagonistic post to make when you have no other thoughts.

They're also painfully unaware of themselves and have hugbox like mentalities while at the same time shitting on every safe space that doesn't involve white men.

Both sides are huge hugboxes, no point in arguing with either.

I don't necessarily disagree but you aren't really helping with posts like the ones in this thread, just throwing that out there.

You're on owndered's level which isn't even in thisispain's shadow; you should probably stop while you sound like someone who'd get banned in an OIFY thread, much less regular FP, cause it's only downhill from here.

It seems really terrible that this is the one thing I can't stop thinking about whenever Anita Sarkeesian is brought up. I can't take the topic seriously anymore. People like Anita will not let the other side speak and will do whatever it takes to dominate the media with her agenda alone. The only interesting thing about her is simply how she looks.[/QUOTE]
Imagine being in a relationship with her...
"Fancy going to bed?"
"[B]stop raping me![/B]"

Ah yes, the good old "Just because I am yelling insults at a crowd doesn't mean you're allowed to yell back at me" tactic, a bit overused but always works

I don't know about that ,but I think she would make for a sexy Bayonetta.

Stop quoting that dude's weird sex fantasy with your own.
It's fucking weird.
Sex with her? Who the hell would want to have sex with this manipulative cunt?Just because you talk about someones looks doesn't mean you automatically want to have sexual intercourse with them. This woman has nothing to bring to the table when it comes to helping women have equal representation in video games.You know who does? Actual women that work in the industry like Jade Raymond. Unlike her, Anita is just another celebrity who doesn't know a dime about working in the industry ,so I will continue only talking about her looks because that's the only thing about her that's worth discussing much like any other celebrity with nothing to offer.
Calm down motherfucker

just because she doesn't work in the game industry doesn't mean she can't criticize it (though i'm not saying she's a good critic), or that she doesn't have a massive amount of influence; perhaps you should realize that covering your ears, calling her a cunt and talking about how bangable she is is pretty sad and creepy and doesn't bring anything to the table either??

But Anita is currently a popular figure in feminism, for better or worse. Therefore debunking her points in a reasonable way is very worthwhile.

Before she began criticizing it, she admitted in one of her first college seminars that she had never played a video game other then Super Mario Bros. It's not necessarily she hasn't worked in video-games - more like, she's never really been playing them at all in the first place...
Since then, she has only electively chosen to play games (As evidenced by her video's) which fans suggest or gift to her, which they believe to be sexist. She has never put any game into positive light - if you actually read or listen to her criticisms, you would know that under her rules, no game could possibly have any gender involved lest it be sexist. Even when she showed people her "own" perfect game - it contradicted her own statements.
She can criticize video games, but in order for people to take her seriously she has to play a more diverse range and stop contradicting herself with her statements. I could write an entire thing with evidence of this but I am not really invested into this thread since anything with her name in it devolves to something incredibly stupid after one persons comments about how bangable she is or baseless insults about how evil everybody who criticizes her is. Either way is bad and just causes one guy yelling against like 20 people for a couple pages until the thread locks.
I know someone already posted a reply-like video, but since I made my own a few hours ago and I'm quite satisfied with the result hopefully nobody me posting that here. If you have anything to add or think something's missing feel free to go ahead and yell at me in a rude manner.

Expect people have debunked her points and nothing has changed, she still gets a crap load of money to do interviews. So how about we start treat her like the joke she is and ignore her ,maybe then people will stop giving her credible. Tbh the whole video game feminism movement is a joke and if you've actually worked in the industry you would know there are a lot of females that work in the industry. There are FAR less black people in the industry and they are far less represented in video games yet you don't see them complaining about it because they have real inequality to worry about, not this joke bs. How many black main characters do you know that aren't from the hood or act like from the ghetto and represent an average black person?

Ahem.

Lol very nice, so theirs so many you needed to Google it and click on the 1st search link rather then be able to list some off on top of your head?
Edit*
And If you you actually took the time to read my question rather then just going straight to Google, I asked for main characters. Most of those aren't characters you play as.
