| 1 | Sexism in a nutshell [3]Hah! I thought about Dhalsim when I was writing that - he's right on that border of freakish, but he is cool looking, and has one of the best "superpowers" in the whole game. | /r/MensRights | 01/09/15 04:53 PM |
| -4 | Sexism in a nutshell [3]Wow thanks! You're right, it was SM2, not 3. The dress was cool but she was SO SLOW it was almost a dealbreaker. edit: I feel you on feeling inadequate watching "300". This culture is starting to put men through the same self-esteem breaking stuff that they've used on women for the last 30 years. The idea is to make people hate their bodies and then sell them "fixes" for problems that don't exist. It's a sick way to manipulate anyone. | /r/MensRights | 01/09/15 04:40 PM |
| -8 | Sexism in a nutshell [3]Men can't shoot lightning out their fingers either. Would it be such a terrible suspension of disbelief if the women were as strong as the men? Wouldn't that make the game better for everyone? | /r/MensRights | 01/09/15 04:15 PM |
| -6 | Sexism in a nutshell [3]You're right, Chun Li is an awesome fighter, and her quickness makes her outrageously fun to play. I also remember playing Jade quite a bit and the one with the fans. So yes, there are a few formidable female opponents - but they're only formidable because they have the rare ability to beat a male fighter. I suspect if two experienced players played random male vs. random female the male character would win between 60 and 80% of the time. That really tells you the esteem the game holds women fig… | /r/MensRights | 01/09/15 04:09 PM |
| -1 | Sexism in a nutshell [3]I was a little kid when Zelda came out and I've been a casual gamer ever since. I actually love Street Fighter and have played a fair bit of it, from the first game on. I can tell you as a woman that every time I choose a female character and she turns out to be a weakling sex object it's deflating, a little pinprick to my self esteem. It's a little bit dehumanizing to have to choose between a female character who is embarrassingly sexual, or a male character you can't relate to and mentally "in… | /r/MensRights | 01/09/15 04:01 PM |
| -2 | Sexism in a nutshell [3]No, just a regular vagina. A vessel, you might say, waiting to be filled with a real person. | /r/MensRights | 01/09/15 03:40 PM |
| -25 | Sexism in a nutshell [3]I think the difference between these two images is the sense of power in each character. Ryu is presented as an uber-human, powerful in all aspects of life. You look at this Ryu and think "Damn, that guy is strong. He could do anything." In contrast, "Rainbow Mika" is a powderpuff. What the hell kind of name is that? What's with the grabbable pigtails? The in-your-face boobs? You look at this girl and think "damn, she's sexy". Her sexiness is the only reason she exists. There's nothing to respec… | /r/MensRights | 01/09/15 03:20 PM |
