I too wonder why so many self professed feminists seem to dislike tending to children, parenting, etc "stuck at home"

My wife kept her last name when we got married. The kids got mine, well because, to prevent issues of sexism when I try and go, for example, pick up my kids from school. Same last name = less hassle.
I think they don't like the idea of tending to children and parenting because that career path has been so demonised by the feminist movement - if you do that, you're a traitor to the feminist cause. Before this crazy neo feminism shit became a thing, I knew many women who did not want to be associated with "normal feminism" because they wanted to stay home and raise kids.

There is nothing wrong with not wanting to have kids. I dont want to have biological children. There is also nothing wrong with being awkward with kids-- My dad and bro are FANTASTIC with children, but for whatever reason Im like 'For the love of god dont you dare hand me that baby because I am going to drop it....'

She got more money than she anticipated and therefore was subject to delays. So, switch gears. If she had chosen to make her own game and incorporated the tropes she felt was sexist and subverted them, I would have fucking applauded that. It wouldn't even have had to be a technically advanced game, just your average indie game. But if she had, and if she inserted some humour into it to avoid preaching, I would probably have enjoyed it.
You seem to have three fundamental misunderstanding.

First, you seem to think that her complaint is that "There are no non-sexism games." If that was the case, then yes, her problem could be solved by making one such game. But her point is that there exists a lot of sexism in video games. She does not say all video games are sexist. She even says that no every use of "Damsel in distress" is sexist. She also says that just because a game has a sexist element (in her opinion) that does hot mean that you should stop enjoying that game, just be aware of that aspect. So, seriously, tell me how her complaint could be solved by her making a game?

And two, you seem to think that people should obey your made up rules. You are making up a rule that if A) someone wants to talk about sexism and B) people hand her a load of money, then, she should stop talking and instead make video games. That's basically a rule you have just made up on the spot. And apparently it doesn't even matter if there is wide-spread sexism in games. Nope. If you have money, you can't talk about that, you just have to make a game. Yep, it sounds weird but that's just the kind of rule that Mr Pitchguest likes to make up.

And three, you seem to think that making games is easy and all it needs is $160K. That's fucking bullshit. That kind of money does not pay for programmers and the design artists and marketing that are the bare fucking minimum. Besides, to make a game you have to sink at least two years of your life, possibly more, without any gaurantees that it won't be a complete flop, because afterall, markets have also a big randomness. There are plenty of awesome kickass indi games that don't make a penny and nobody gives a shit about them.
BAAAHAHAAHAHAHA on that last one. You really have to stop thinking EA is the end all and be all of games. Best estimates I could find for Angry Birds was 100K Euro. At the current exchange rate? Why right around $130,000

You seem to have a fundamental misunderstanding of what a video game is, or are restricting yourself to specific levels of games and platforms to make your point. In any event, yes, you could in fact, make a good, wildly popular video game for $160K. It's been done before in fact.

I think rayshul meant that if a family is in a position where one of the parents can afford to voluntarily stay home, that's a privilege. Then it's a separate question whether the working parent or stay at home parent generally has a better deal.
Yep. I wasn't aware of Skep tickle's original comments on this when I posted and was only responding to erik's comment. It's definitely a classism issue... which remains the only -ism that I'm really willing to acknowledge as a serious issue.

It's bizarre. I'm a public defender in Columbus, so I represent a lot of poor people, mostly racial minorities, plus I'm getting married to a black woman and I have two black kids. I tell those guys to let them know that I'm legitimately interested in racial issues (and crime) only get told I'm entitled and that none of that proves I'm a good person who isn't racist. WTF!? Half the battle over there is trying to get them to treat you like a human being.

It's easy to tell people how they should think about themselves by tapping away at a keyboard. Pisses me off. Really, people like yourself, in the real world swimming in social justice and you get told that you're Schrodinger's Racist. Fuckers.
That's the pattern with these FTB assholes.

They viciously attack Abbie Smith, feminist and scientist who does real-world science.

They viciously attack Harriet Hall, feminist and doctor who successfully fought her way through real-world "boy's club" fields.

They viciously attack EdwardGemmer, who has real-world knowledge and experience with subjects the faux-SJWs claim expertise in.

They viciously attack Paula Kirby, an accomplished author and skeptic.

The list goes on and on.

In short, they viciously attack anyone with real-world experience and actual accomplishments in areas that the Baboons try to claim superiority in. A bunch of snotty little shits trying to degrade people who accomplish more in a day than the whole lot of these whingers accomplish in their lifetimes.


Meanwhile, as you say, all they do is bellow from behind the pulpits of their keyboards and accomplish absolutely jack fucking shit. They're not pioneers, they're not helping anyone (well, except for PZ, Rebecca, Ophelia et ass), and they're not making the slightest bit of difference in the world. They are insanely jealous of smart and accomplished people like Abbie, Harriet, Paula and Edward, and try to minimize their accomplishments through smear campaigns at the slightest sign that they get too much respect and attention.

Small people try to level the playing field by dragging brighter and more accomplished people down to their level, instead of trying to improve themselves in order to raise themselves to the level of the more accomplished people.

If there's one thing that the FreethoughtBlogs crowd have definitively proven over the last couple of years, it's that they (bloggers and commenters alike) are a bunch of unaccomplished, lazy, privileged, whiny, bitter, vicious little shits who could never hold a candle to people who have actually done something with their lives. Fuck them all into the ground.

What a bizarre line of argument. If you went over to PZ's or Ophelia's (or confronted EB Wachs) claiming that their google profiles were tainted by their behavior, what do you think they would say before they banned your ass?

What's your point? Google PZ Myers, Ophelia Benson, EllenBeth Wachs, and Rebecca Watson (and Abbie Smith) and look at the first few pages of results -- not too many idly curious people are going to do more than that. What do you see? What does it mean to you?

Are we still doing the bassist jokes?

When erik was a kid he asked his Dad for a bass. Daddy says he will only buy him one if he takes proper lessons, so he agrees.
After the first lesson he comes home and Dad asks "What did you learn today". "I learnt the notes on the first five frets of the E string" says the young shitstain.
Next week his dad asks him again. "This week I learnt the notes on the first five frets of the A string" he answers.
On the third week his dad asks him again and erick replies "Sorry, Dad I couldn't make the lesson this week, I had a gig".
that was fucking funny, never heard that one, seriously, good one. :rimshot:
I'm not like the others on here I think you are a cunt and I wish you'd fuck off.
Oh the feeling is mutual I assure you. Funny how you idiots rage about the silencing tactics of the other side though, accuse them of being dogmatic and not tolerating dissent when it is perfectly clear to any one with a set of eyes that you really don't like it when people disagree with you on your own turf. Talk about a bunch of fucking hypocrites.

Shorter Anita Sarkeesian: "This does not conform, therefore it must cease or change".

What I find most revealing about her "analyses" about pop culture is the paradigm that "adolescent men getting aroused = evil+bad". Everything she does and produces makes sense as long as you accept that premise. If you don't, it melts away.

Fuck you, Anita Sarkeesian. Fuck you for under the guise of "criticising", trashing the experiences of millions of underage males. Fuck you for taking a Cleveland steamer on the precious experiences, even if virtual, of socially awkward males of a generation. Fuck you for attempting to shame what is increasingly considered the golden age of video games.

Fuck you, you zero-talent hack.

That's as stupid as going into romance novels and criticising how males are portrayed. What is the market for comics? 30yo males, so is marketing to males bad or is that sex shaming? What do the men in comics/games look like??? They sure don't look average. Fantasy is fantasy. Is male fantasy any worse than female fantasy? Sex and the City/Mr Big? etc.

Apologies is this was covered already in the 4 pages I've yet to read.

No it doesn't. He'd be an equally worthless shit-stain here even if he could play keyboards like Phil.

Erik, I personally welcome disagreement. But you're making a cunt of yourself with your poor logic.

The baboon narrative in action again. Make a libelous claim, repeat until the other baboons are conditioned to believe it actually happened.

Jesus Christ. Were you born with this victim complex or did you have to work your way up to it?

Nobody is "silencing" you here. Grow a fucking pair of balls and fight it out. You're with the adults now. Grow the fuck up, simpleton.

And here comes the banhammer...

Oh, wait, that almost never happens here. We tolerate dissent, even if we don't like it.

Erik, your just another fucking colon clone, as I said earlier, making laughable implications of silencing when people don't want to listen to your whining.

Cunt.

No one is banning you are they? No one is editing your comments are they? No one is forcing you to respond or not respond to particular comments are they? If you don't like unpleasant rhetoric, then don't offer it yourself and don't engage with the people who do. You are choosing how you spend your time here not us. If you want to spend it in a trollish shouting match, that is your decision.
