Gotta love how the woman who put that together looks like a man.

More of this crap?

Not many men are insane enough to go on a public platform (those of any public clout anyway), and stop these trends. Women hold too much social power for anyone to stop their movements no matter how insane their claims get.

Women watching degrading shows to women like bad girls club, millionaire matchmaker (generally the episode is a man chooses between 40 or so women that he has picked what "assets" he would like them to have and the women compete so that hopefully the millionaire will date them), the bachelor, etc.
No problem!

Women with things they don't care about (Gaming, Sports, etc.) all of a sudden massive social movements to change it to make it acceptable to them.

I bust my ass 40 hours a week with another 10 hours spent driving to and from work to pay for these stupid games. The characters better have some freaking knockers on them or I am not buying.

Key words " politically correct gone wild" I wish it was just in games. The whole world needs somebody to blame problems on, from skin color, to kids behavior, to being lazy, its all some disease, malady, or somebody else did it to you. The world is full of asshats and nice people with common sense, if you cant navigate it without blaming something for your problems its going to be a long sad ride to that casket. Kinda feel sorry for um, that much butthurt (for some reason that term seems so un-PC I needed to use it) will never be happy. To bad they dont spend as much time educating them selves and trying to cure cancer, feed the world, learning to be responsible for themselves, silly stuff like that.

ya way to much BS from them and me.

It's not a two way street conversation. Men primarily play these games yet we can't have beautiful women (even if it's unrealistic).

But women primarily watch romance movies and yet the men in those can be the ideal 6 pack, multi millionaire, etc.

The reason people hope on these social justice campaigns is for ATTENTION. More clicks, more money, more exposure. They almost always transfer it into a cash grab. Never is it a "I just want to make something right!"

It's always "How can I monetize this for me?"

That's why the conversations are always taken way too far.

Pretty sure that was the idea with the op not giving any info on about it.

Almost every point made in this thread is to something clearly not covered in that clip.

Or people just want to discuss the actual issue...

Is this the "Gamergate" thing that no one outside of the American North West gave a crap about last year?

Yeah not watching that. 20 seconds in I had already had enough.

I won't click on a youtube video link with no written description of the video in question.
Your statement is the exact reason why.
Thanks for measuring for me exactly how much of my life I was able to save. I really appreciate your sacrifice to humanity (aka me).

Oblivion with its ugly women was very forward thinking it seems. Good thing dudes came in and created nude mods and pretty faces :)

No, the part gamers want fixed is being addressed one company at a time.

The video pertains more to the radical feminist shift taking place in America. The reason why it pertains to gamergate is because gamers were the first to tell them to back the hell up.

Now, before you go off on some tangent, read this article
http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2012-10-24-lost-humanity-18-a-table-of-doritos

And watch this Totalbiscuit video.

They're both from 2012. You can say what Rab Florence said in 2012, is what is happening now.

Oh, and Rab Florence was fired the next day for writing that article.

So I watched most of that video, and then watched more of her stuff -- thoughtful, insightful woman.

Some of the above posts are obvious knee-jerk reactions, sometimes bordering on misogyny which are made all the more telling from the fact that the posters mistakenly assumed the woman in the video espoused a view contrary to theirs (though thus conforming to their prejudiced expectation).

Oh the irony.
Good shit.

It is. We dont have Anita Sarkeesian...
you seem to care about her more than we do, so guess it doesn't really matter how far or close she is. Cause she could be my next door neighbor and I wouldn't give a **** what she had to say.
