To be fair, evolutionary impulses can detract from a person's ability to think logically. See the huge discussion in Serious about the two female Rangers and why it would negatively affect combat performance to have mixed company in the field
It's irrational to be offended by sexual gratuity and then taking it to the extreme where it literally consumes every aspect of your life.Be offended by sexual gratuity all you fucking want. Nobody cares. It isn't your prerogative to posit the notion of 'boycotting' because it personally makes you feel uncomfortable for a couple of minutes.It takes a lot to offend me, but like the majority of rational thinking people, if something does offend me I think about it for a couple of minutes then move the fuck on with my life. Being offended pertains to you. It is YOUR personal problem. Not mine. Not anyone else. This is not a difficult concept.
Nobody is being coerced into this.Nobody is being harmed by this.There is no moral imposition being perpetrated here. Whatsoever. It is once again, a subjective issue that exists within you.
Being born a normal human being doesn't make someone an idiot.
Evolutionary impulses does not affect intelligence last I checked.
Explain to me how using sex as a marketing tool is sexism.Go on.I'll be making a cuppa in the process munchkin.
Verbatim thinks that just having sexual inhibitions makes someone stupid, when it obviously doesn't.

1. It does not affect every aspect of my life. That is one gross exaggeration. It doesn't even affect my life in any noticeable way--for example--the monkey on my back still tells me that sex is fun and desirable. I allow the monkey to feed me these ideas every once in awhile, because it keeps me sane. But when it comes time to sit down and think about what we're doing on his planet, you have to recognize that everything that we do on this planet is shit. Most of all sex.
2. "Nobody cares"--which is why you're arguing with me about it.
3. You should still be offended by sexual gratuity. You have failed to explain why it doesn't and why you shouldn't.
None of which is required for exploitation to occur.
Check again. If you're able to accede the notion that having children represents no ethical transgression whatsoever, then, uh, you're fucking stupid. And yes--that means 99% of the human race is fucking stupid. Deal with it.
It becomes sexist when you start catering to specific genders.
There are fast food commercials in America right now that use sweaty, scantily clad women to sell burgers, and it's abhorrently sexist
because it assumes that all men are just mindless fucking drones who will only buy something if they see a hot woman doing it.
Or if it's associated with sex in ANY way. And it does this while exploiting the female form--which is dastardly in itself.

Your definition of 'shit' being subjective. Explain how sex being 'shit' has such damning and harmful consequences on the human populace besides referring to the tired old argument of "I personally find it disgusting" for the eleventy billionth time.
Are you trying to say that I care?
Most people
Never made that proclamation. There is a fine gradient over what constitutes 'exploitation.' We exploit the natural resources of the Earth to power our technology. We exploit the weather to cultivate agriculture.
Considering it applies to both genders, it really isn't.
And there are yoghurt commercials depicting muscle imbued hulks with the intention of getting women's pussies frothing. What the fuck is your point.
They kind of are tbh.
Oh my fucking christ, please explain how this 'exploitation' inflicts damage to fucking ANYONE. Literally anyone.

It creates things to be killed and slaughtered and to endure pain and suffering. That's what the goal of sex is. To produce more fucking shitheads so that they can fucking die. That's what sex is ALL about.

Quote from: Luciana on August 31, 2015, 05:11:23 PMJill Valentine is another example of a female character not over sexualized (with Sheva too I guess, but she sucks). It's a shame she's part of a series that sunk faster than Titanic.I mean yeah, if I thought really hard, I could probably think of a bunch, too. I love Makoto from Street Fighter, for example.Mad Max: Fury Road was a feminist's dream.Well, Anita didn't like it, but that's because she doesn't like violence (her overall shittiest opinion that I don't agree with at all).

Yes. Because you're engaging with me. Not that complicated.
Most people are FUCKING stupid. All you can do is argue from the majority.
Sorry--that's fallacious and stupid.
Which would work as an argument if you weren't making such an incredibly dehumanizing statement.
You're comparing women to natural resources and weather.
Sorry. They're a lot more than that. You misogynist.
No, it doesn't. That's like saying racism is dead because there are racist groups against every single race on the planet, so when you group them all together, you get every flavor of prejudice. No. Some commercials are sexist against men, some commercials are sexist against women. You cant group them up together and then say it's not sexist just because they are both concurrent. What a stupid fucking argument.
That that's sexist.
Herpity derp.
Why does it have to?
we already have contraceptive methods to impede the reproductive process. Thus the logical conclusion we can come to is that the sex itself is not immoral.
Can you even argue with rationality without injecting your edgy emotions into it?
No, I'm illustrating how paramount context is in regards to words. Exploitation can be used to demonstrate practically anything. You would know this if you weren't attempting to strawman me left and right out of sheer desperation.
Well, sexism is the discriminatory practice favouring one gender over the other. Seeing as how both genders are liable to experience this, it isn't sexism.
For it be considered objectively 'immoral' or intrinsically offensive, yeah, it kind of fucking has to.
