Cringeworthy promo for a female League of Legends team - General

[QUOTE=MaxOfS2D;40861481]what's pathetic about it?[/QUOTE] Probably because you don't need to wear a low-cut evening gown to play a computer game.

[QUOTE=ashxu;40861413][img]http://puu.sh/35cqJ.jpg[/img] [img]http://puu.sh/35cqX.jpg[/img] lol[/QUOTE] those aren't even gameplay vids, they're just vlog things

[QUOTE=BadderSanta;40861526]Probably because you don't need to wear a low-cut evening gown to play a computer game.[/QUOTE] who the shit cares what you're wearing when you're on the computer as long as it doesn't bother anyone

[QUOTE=BadderSanta;40861526]Probably because you don't need to wear a low-cut evening gown to play a computer game.[/QUOTE] i agree that having half the screen taken up by the facecam is ridiculous but i don't see what's wrong with the clothing wait, are you saying that cleavage = attention whore or some stupid double standard like that

[QUOTE=Doomish;40861496]the fact that they are streaming a multiplayer video game and their face takes up 60% of the screen [/QUOTE] well maybe you should look at the actual videos because then you'd see they don't do that [editline]1st June 2013[/editline] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/WYQWBuu.jpg[/IMG]

[QUOTE=MaxOfS2D;40861481]what's pathetic about it?[/QUOTE] Fact that they're using their bodies as an attraction rather than their ability at the game. If you would put down your biased and unyielding appeal to equality then you'd understand.

[QUOTE=MaxOfS2D;40861545] wait, are you saying that cleavage = attention whore or some stupid double standard like that[/QUOTE] Well, there are double standards and then there is the ad and view revenue.

[QUOTE=Lambadvanced;40861590]Fact that they're using their bodies as an attraction rather than their ability at the game. [/QUOTE] are you able to read minds or something those images were taken from vlogs, not gameplay footage

[QUOTE=MisterMooth;40861562] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/WYQWBuu.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE] Well then, never mind. [editline]1st June 2013[/editline] MY AUTOMERGE!

[QUOTE=MisterMooth;40861596]are you able to read minds or something those videos were taken from vlogs, not gameplay footage also you're an idiot[/QUOTE] They're using a picture of themselves with a low-cut top as an advertisement for themselves. Of course you can't always say "oh they planned to show cleavage for that purpose" because you can never know, but it seems rather clear their intention.

If they make it into any of the big tournaments then I'll take back what I think of them but I don't think they're even the first team. I think there was an all female team called 'Kitchen Bandits' that was first

[QUOTE=Ownederd;40861610]did you even read the thread?[/QUOTE] yep, obviously i must be completely misinformed and ignorant if i disagree with your views.

[editline]31st May 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=MisterMooth;40861625]no you're just a sexist shitbag who thinks all women are out to exploit your penis[/QUOTE] Okay so they aren't attempting to take advantage of the fact that they're women at all? I mean it's not even a bad thing, I just like to point out the ulterior motives of actions. It obviously wouldn't be a bad thing, who wouldn't want something attractive to look at? That's just human nature honestly.

what the fuck is going on in this thread? how did we get to calling each other sexist pigs already?

"take advantage of the fact that they're women" lmao are serious dude

[QUOTE=MisterMooth;40861662]"take advantage of the fact that they're women" lmao are serious dude[/QUOTE] People take advantages of their traits all the time. The fuck is wrong with you? If I was muscular and beautiful, I'd take advantage of that, if I were a boobilicious female, I'd take advantage of that because that's just what people like to fucking see. Why is your first priority to attempt to discredit me and flame me to make me look like a dirty sexist pig, when I never meant anything of the sort?

[editline]31st May 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=Ownederd;40861677]because you're quite adamant in arguing that they're trying to sexual-ize themselves[/QUOTE] Well they obviously would be inclined to do so for a multitude of reasons, does pointing out that fact make me sexist? I can understand your backlash if I were to be a clearly sexist person, but I don't think I've conveyed that here at all.

[QUOTE=locojaws;40861410]mmm yoonie is pretty cute ;)[/QUOTE] Do you really need to announce that is such a weird manner? Or at all?

[QUOTE=Lambadvanced;40861680]Well they obviously would be inclined to do so for a multitude of reasons, does pointing out that fact make me sexist? I can understand your backlash if I were to be a clearly sexist person, but I don't think I've conveyed that here at all.[/QUOTE] well you completely lack any and all self-awareness then literally hundreds if not thousands of men do exactly what these women are doing and nobody has a problem with it but as soon as these women show up on camera wearing pretty fucking typical clothing you start whining about them just wanting attention for their looks

[QUOTE=MisterMooth;40861690]it's not up to you to decide whether you're sexist, dude you're the reason why women are constantly turned away from gaming, because you automatically treat them like they're "attention whores"[/QUOTE] You're right, I can't decide whether I'm sexist or not, but I can attempt to explain why I'm not, or at least that my ideals aren't grounded in sexism. All I'm saying is that they're using their traits to their advantage, in this case it's cleavage, and they play that to their advantage. It'd be unfair to call them attention whores, there is nothing to indicate that they are any different from anyone else in the LoL scene (or the video game scene in general[or life in general]), they, along with everyone else, are just people attempting to use all the strategies they can to reach their goal of fame or whatever.

It's unfair to accuse me of lacking self-awareness, that implies that your interpretation of what I'm saying is the literal only way of interpreting it. [editline]31st May 2013[/editline] And anyway, if they DON'T do that, and that image was misleading (seems to be the case indeed), then alright. My point still stands, and I think that it'd be cool if everyone realized that everyone uses the same tactics to fulfill their dreams, shows breasts, showing muscles, showing their face, whatever it may be, it's all the same. Pointing that out doesn't make the person who points it out sexist, unless of course, they are using it in a negative manner. Innocent until proven guilty would work here.

[QUOTE=Lambadvanced;40861719]All I'm saying is that they're using their traits to their advantage, in this case it's cleavage, and they play that to their advantage. [/QUOTE] you can't possibly know this. what they're wearing is pretty typical and casual. they shouldn't have to "cover up" to avoid all the whining from sexist dudes

[QUOTE=MisterMooth;40861754]you can't possibly know this. what they're wearing is pretty typical and casual. they shouldn't have to "cover up" to avoid all the whining from sexist dudes[/QUOTE] Way I see it, people typically pick their wardrobe based on comfort or looks (or formality). You are right that I can't know that, but I feel that to be true, and there's really no point arguing since neither of us can know their intentions for certain.

I bet if they were unattractive there wouldn't be this kind of response

eugh, make it stop [editline]1st June 2013[/editline] LoL sucks

[QUOTE=MisterMooth;40861779]I bet if they were unattractive there wouldn't be this kind of response[/QUOTE] I feel like it would've been a lot worse actually.
