Oh Dear... Anita... What are you doing?

Seriously, why?

 

 

Was watching youtube, and this protomario vid popped up.

 

Huh...

 

TL:DW

Anita Sarkeesian is working for EA now, and designing a "Female Control Scheme" that reduces the number of buttons needed to play the game

 

WHAT THE HELL?

Any girls out there that feel that they need a control scheme for their gender to keep up?

Any girls out there that feel that they need a handy cap?

 

This is blatant, first degree sexism.

 

First, she presents gaming as a "men's club" of misogyny, what girl would want to join that?

Now, she does this?

 

Does it feel good to be treated as stupid/unable?

No. No it doesn't.

 

Oh yeah, there's a petition too:

https://www.change.o...ame-development

 

And a thread on LTT for it:

http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/266149-theres-a-petition-saying-anita-sarkeesian-should-not-help-develop-mirrors-edge-2/

 

This is not a repost, the post linked above does not include information of her position in the company.

I don't think it can.

Someone told Luke and Linus at CES 2017 to "Unban the legend known as Jerakl" and that's about all I've got going for me. (It didn't work)

Wait she says women are too stoopid to understand all them buttons? Who is the feminist here again?

The stone cannot know why the chisel cleaves it; the iron cannot know why the fire scorches it. When thy life is cleft and scorched, when death and despair leap at thee, beat not thy breast and curse thy evil fate, but thank the Builder for the trials that shape thee.

Nothing more harming to a women's right than to assume they're stupid and give them an easier set of controls... How about we treat them like humans... which would be the same way we are treating the male gaming audience...

Yeah, if anything, this halfassed move is complete and utter hypocrisy.

Idk, but the petition to remove Anita from the dev process has already been posted bud.

I personally think equality will never be possible, its simply human nature, regardless of gender.

Oh boy she should stick to dildos. There's only one button, can't get overwhelmed then. That's the the most stupid bitch I've encountered for a while. Can someone make her shut up?

What has happened to this world. Video games are probably the most gender neutral medium out there. There are games for everyone.

Anita is a parasite to the gaming community and really needs a good ol' fashioned punch in the face.

 

And it would be to your personal satisfaction, too. Win win!

I don't understand why you guys even bother talking about this nut

just stop talking about her, when you see the name take a deep breath and scroll right on along.

I don't even care about anything that she says or do, but it gets mildly irritating when I literally cannot escape this content no matter where I go.

If you want her to go away stop feeding her attention and stop driving clicks to sources featuring her.

Funny tho... Sif GAMERS who are Female don't hate this shit too.

They are JUST AS competitive as us... I doubt they would even want this at all...

^Seriously...Who held a gun to your head saying visit this thread then?

If you didn't care, why post... if you were sick of the content around your forums you visit, why click the thread titles..?

Ignore it...

Just a tip, anything I post where the post starts with "Oh Dear" is just that.

 

my "Oh Dear" is = to "Excessive WTF Warning"

There are times in my life that I struggle to process or even comprehend... Then there is this utter BS where I honestly lose all faith in humanity. This literally makes absolutely no sense whatsoever especially since this is contrasting to what she has been trying to convey to everyone by being all butt hurt about the way the women are portrayed in games and now she is trying to do the same but with the way a given gender plays a game? WTF
