Being rude and offending other posters is against the CoC. You might think my posts are "stupid crap", but I happen to disagree.


She also changed the words in your quote to make it seem as if you agreed with her, which I believe isn't allowed by the CoC.

I could report them all for harassment.

Just as there are no wang windows there are no windows to the female pelvic area either.


There's "metal" armor in fantasy art that leaves little to the imagination in that regard.

What you are objecting to is sexualized imagery that disrupts YOUR suspension of disbelief.


So what? That doesn't make it any less sexist.

So what? I've had people do it to me and they didn't get in trouble when I reported them.

I'm curious as to how you think it is you that is being harassed, when you are the one throwing out insults.

see that equals sexualized. Its still not sexist because the women are also depicted as strong, intelligent and fully capable of kicking ass in their own right, yet at the same time they are women and proud of it. This is the very definition of modern feminists.


IT DOES NOT GORRAM MATTER. The sexualized armor is perpetuating the stereotype that women are sex objects. That makes it SEXIST. It doesn't have jack nor squat to do about depicting a female as weak or strong you moron. There is more than one definition for sexism. Go fraggin' read a dictionary you .

American Heritage Dictionary - Cite This Source - Share This
sex·ism Audio Help (sěk'sĭz'əm) Pronunciation Key
n.

1. Discrimination based on gender, especially discrimination against women.
2. Attitudes, conditions, or behaviors that promote stereotyping of social roles based on gender.

Bolded for emphasis. The boobie window armor is promoting stereotyping of women in a social role as a sex object to be desired.

Read it, learn it, memorize it and shut the hell up.

No see we could all report you. And yes it does make it less sexist, because its not sexist at all. Once again Ill say this

see that equals sexualized. Its still not sexist because the women are also depicted as strong, intelligent and fully capable of kicking ass in their own right, yet at the same time they are women and proud of it. This is the very definition of modern feminists. Your arguments hold no water whats ever.

The very same thing I've started doing to you (actually I'm reporting you for trolling). I even cited precedence where I've received warnings for saying things in good faith. I don't believe you're in for fair treatment if you so much as continue arguing your case. Which is a good thing for me, because I don't like you.

I don't believe anything could make it less sexist than it already is.

No, it isn't. You seem to be one of the few people on this thread who is viewing them as sex objects.

Blah blah blah blah. You're all dogpiling on me and harassing me because I'm right and you think you can shout me down by sheer weight of stupidity.

Whatever... the armor is clearly perpetuating that attitude. Women as sex objects. There's no reason to put a fraggin' boobie window in armor. NO REASON AT ALL. The only purpose in putting the boobie window in the armor is because the artists is a lameass horndog who likes slapping cleavage in their artwork where it doesn't belong. To sexualize their art and that makes it sexist.
