yeah art has never been sexual

cool strawman, bro

that has nothing to do with anything that i've expressed in this thread

what? you said that sexualizing characters is an affront to art. there is historical precedence that art can be sexual. i can give you a lot of other examples.

you said that sexualizing characters is an affront to art.

literally where

literally where

he plays as pretty girls because he likes looking at pretty girls
not because he identifies with them, not because he finds them interesting

but so he can mentally beat off to them (perhaps even physically)

it's an affront to art

?

?

i was referring to naoto's mental masturbation

instead of playing as a character based on rational nuance, he lets his tiny penis decide who to play as

that's an affront to art

sexuality is fine--my problem with the industry is not just sexualization, but "sexploitation", as it were, where a product doesn't contain sexuality for any intelligent or artistic purpose--it contains it to appease pubescent, perverted children like naoto

it turns sex into a fucking cheap circus
and i hate hate hate it

misogyny is not even a little bit okay

treating women as objects for you to look at
yeah, that's pretty disgusting

Ha, whats next? Women have feelings? Like trees? Pff, please...

Uh... trees do have feelings.

Women too, but they don't matter at all.

Do trees have rights?

More than women.

Any chance we can pin this thread?

yeah, that wouldn't be pointless

I think it'd be a valuable intro for new members.

I find women to be attractive and therefore enjoy the female body

but not anything else about them

that's called objectification

which is a form of misogyny

"I don't hate the female form" =/= "I don't hate females"

It was the only reason you given, so that's what I can only assume:

Even for games I usually play a attractive female if given the option. (unless yuri isn't allowed, ala Fire Emblem. Not into romancing dudes).

Not that complicated really. I find women attractive = prefer to look at women = choose female characters. Always been comfortable with my own manliness so I've never had a complex over that type of stuff. Then again I'm not particularly repressed/puritanical when it comes to sexuality either.

and not to mention, you're insinuating that if you don't do what you do (objectify women), then you're not comfortable with your "manliness", and are sexually repressed puritans

which is... oingo boingo bullshit

a literal object is not sexist. Sorry buddy.

yyyes it is, though

women aren't just objects
they are subjects

and they ought to be treated as such in media

but you won't do that, though, because "muh penus"
so yes, treating women as if they don't have personalities is sexist. period

my feminism doesn't have anything to do with my anti-natalism, by the way

unless someone believes that women are only good for having children, but i don't think you're THAT stupid, thankfully

i think verb got lost on his way to http://jezebel.com/

whatever that means

>third wave

where

there's sexism in media
it's just a fact

It was the only reason you given, so that's what I can only assume:

Explain why I have Naoto as an avatar over say Rise or Yukiko. A characters personality naturally determines how likeable they are. But even if I was choosing based purely on physical (digital) lust there would also be nothing wrong with that as its a perfectly healthy expression of sexuality. In this case straight. Either way automatically misusing the word misogynist out the gate based on an assumption makes you look foolish.

and not to mention, you're insinuating that if you don't do what you do (objectify women), then you're not comfortable with your "manliness", and are sexually repressed puritans

which is... oingo boingo bullshit

Well if you find people 'creepy and weird' for using avatars of fictional characters that they like, but are not representations of themselves, then yea that's probably suggestive of a very sheltered repressed mind on your part. Knowing your views as I do I'm more than confident calling you sexually repressed.
