In Response to the Article about 'Degrading Women'

I guess KOF is the feminist fighting game fans dream since even the male characters look like slutty females

equality in action!

But even SNK had the sense to end that on a high note with a time paradox that ungayed up the plotline quite nicely.

Now that Ash is out of the picture, Shen Woo is obv. top in whatever relationship he now takes up.

And, as you all know, you’re “not gay” if you’re pitcher… at least for SNK’s target audience in this hemisphere.

i like how this thread went from
"Chun-li isn’t offensive, her design makes sense, etc…“
to
"If you downtown with a bitch-friend and you ain’t thinkin about getting her to peck your wood with her uvula, mufucka, you gay.”

My issues with Bayonetta have to do with wondering why any guys can find her attractive when she has such a small head and otherwise weirdly-proportioned body. Mostly the small head, though. It’s so weird to look at.

re:fighting games, yeah there’s some oversexualized females featured there, but I mean, I just don’t play them. I’ve yet to encounter anything I actually took offense to, and I’d be lying if I said there weren’t any nice looking guys to fawned over.

Yeah, there’s some somewhat sketchy characters designs. But there’s also pretty cool nonsexualized ones, especially in KoF. So in the end… I don’t really care.

How about we scrap the front page entirely? Would make my browsing regimen so much more easier.

Ungay things?

Yeah, I know what you mean. My beef with SC3 onward was how weird the females started to look. SC2 had it right.

Funny you said head, most people mention her height as being weird.

Have you seen Kim’s current team?

Her heads not that small tho…It just looks that way due to the size of her hair and the way she stands with her shoulders wide out. makes her chest look really wide. In more natural stances her proportions look fine.

A big guy that gets paid to grab other dudes and a drunk.

Being a drunk is the hight of Manhood dontcha know.

The big guy grabs girls with equal fervor.

And the drunk is the best part of the cast - ain’t nothin’ even slightly unmanly 'bout him.

there’s a front page? with articles?

Yeah Hwa Jai is the height of Manhood yelling at King for wearing pants. Imagine if MotW Special actually got finished where that female Muay Thai (Joe’s Disciple) got to meet Hwa Jai. Best of all you can get away with it by saying its the booze talking.

her head? She’s wearing a pair of High-heel HANDCANNONS!!! If she kicks someone in the nuts, their family line…
JUST REACHED THE END OF THE LINE.

-Starhammer-

yeah, honda’s ass is waaaaaaaaaaaay bigger. shits obvious.

Is it wrong that I don’t hate or have a problem with any female character I’ve ever encountered in a fighting game and that I actually really like most of them?

Some are objectified, yes, but I don’t vilify or get offended by a character just from what they wear or how big their assets are; that’s kinda…shortsighted.

Then again, I’m not a bitter person and I just love women.

I don’t have a huge problem with any female fg designs, but some of them annoy me a little.

You got Mai, who can bounce around the screen and somehow manage to keep her bosom from busting out of her loose vest.

Ivy’s costume was reduced to leather straps in SC4.

Even Rose irritates me a bit; the fact that she slides across the ground in leggings and a dress. It’s called friction. You don’t see Chun doing that shit; her legs would end up looking like Gief’s.

I can’t believe there’s only one post in the whole thread that makes some sense. Wow.

Moral guardians need to step the fuck down and take a look back, no one takes Soul Calibur or DOA’s characters seriously, and if you seriously feel offended by those parodies of human beings, you really need to reevaluate yourself. Yes the creator is a creep and isn’t right in the head, refers to his characters as “his daughters” - such would be obvious to any sensible human being seeing those models, and probably letting out an amused chuckle at the sight.

Same for Street fighter characters, they are for the most part comical parodies of national stereotypes. They aren’t meant to look like anything realistic or even “mature”, they’re just crazy doodles come to life.

It’s like getting offended at a saturday morning cartoon. You’re so busy soapboxing you’re losing sight of what exactly is that you’re bitching against : something with litterally no impact and no breadth of influence.

Though I gotta say, the amount of misoginy in this thread is indeed staggering. But yeah, fighting game community, this is a dead horse by now.

What??? Are you dense? There is a HUGE difference between someone looking for sexual attention, and putting sexual attention onto everyone. This is like some fucking rapist logic you’re using, jesus christ.

Jokes are funny. No where does either game ever treat its characters perportions and camera angels in a humorous light like Bayonetta or Devil May Cry does.
