I’M SORRY BUT THIS REALLY PISSED ME OFF AND I NEEDED TO VENT.
So I liked this page last year for the shits and gigs, as you do. I found it funny, and let slide the few sexist posts.
Only recently- and after I got a tumblr- did I really start to notice the abundance of rape, sexist and racist jokes appearing on my news feed. And it pissed me off.
I said nothing, however, because what could I do? Send in a message to the page and get labelled a whore and a slut by the Admins as I’ve seen so many people do?
Then this motherfucking gem popped up.
I usually don’t get involved in these sorts of things; if I do my comment gets lost more often than not and goes unnoticed. But I had to comment, I really had to.
I thought my argument was valid and whole, and I was actually rather happy when he admin directly replied to my comment.
I narrowed down my five favourite games ever and posted them.
Of course, I got beaten and labeled down once again.
When I asked for a rational clarification of his definitions of “casual” and “core” he did not reply. It was only when I directly insinuated the bias of his claim did I get a response.
“A feminist I see. No arguments need to be made. Good luck with getting them eggs fertilized”
Note the use of “feminist” as an insult.
I have had my fair share of gender specific hate regarding gaming. I get told I am a fake and a bitch if I get a high score; I get told to “suck a dick because you are better at that, bitch” if I get a low score; I get told to “get back in the kitchen, slut” without any prompt at all, simply because I have a vagina.
I am beyond sick of this. I hate the fact that if a male who hypothetically plays a few hours of CoD can be easily called a gamer by the wider community but I if were to say that I was a level 34 on Skyrim I would immediately be called a fake geek girl, a casual gamer and a liar.
I hate the fact that, even though 45% of gaming consumers are female, developers and publishers still believe that there is not a large enough demographic for female protagonists.
I hate the fact that most women in video games are no more than sexulised objects in skimpy clothing.
I hate the fact that I cannot enjoy a game without being labeled and branded because of the fact that I posses a vagina and not a penis.
~sorry about the long post clogging up your dash. I needed to vent~
Off-topic somewhat, but important.
why this
That guy is a fucking moron. If Bioshock: Infinite and Gear of Wars are not considered “core” in his fucking books, THEN WHAT THE HELL IS!? FUCKING MORON. (it just goes to show he’s simply calling EVERYTHING you play “casual” because you don’t have a penis. You have a vagina, and clearly in his books that makes you a perpetual “casual” gamer, no matter what you play)
I AM SO PISSED OFF WITH EVERYTHING ABOUT THAT FACEBOOK CONVO.
“A feminist I see.” Yes, because someone wanting to be treated like a goddamn human being is sooooo annoying to you as a straight adult male. How dare we demand for as much respect as you would give someone with a penis.
I am sure that, had your gender not been known, he would have lauded you as a “hardcore gamer.” Well, you know what, F**K him!!!!!!
I have played SO MANY video games for SO LONG that I am almost ashamed how much of my life I have spent on video games. And, yeah, you know what, I may NOT play his “hardcore” games, but I have played HUNDREDs or THOUSANDS of hours of LoZ and Arkham City and Pokemon and Animal Crossing and ALL (And I mean ALL) of the Mario games and Super Smash Bros, and MAYBE those aren’t his games of choice, but I could probably WIPE the floor in SSB with him using Samus Aran (a female character) that he would be sitting there crying into his Wiimote.
So screw him and his narrow, sexist views. He can call me casual, and I’ll call him a moron.
HOLY SHIT THIS PISSES ME OFF.
This is why I stopped gaming online.
Sorry you had to. Fucksticks are everywhere.

I treasure my remark to my grandson who asked, “Grandpa, were you a hero in the war?” Grandpa said, “No… but I served in a company of heroes.
