Think we are about to see another wave.

This "frat boy" culture was there all the time. Yes, very shocking, I know.

Blizzcon 2010 player question on female characters sexist provocative clothing:

As an FF14 player in a game that has playboy bunny's holding up this example is not exactly a good idea. Personally I am fine with the stuff I see in the game since it is a fantasy world and should have its own culture/world. There are also a lot of moments where they handle female empowerment in a very good way.

There seems to be a little confirmation here going by Twitch viewership in the WoW category that has completely tanked and is consistently lower then FF14.

It only becomes a problem if there is no alternative to it. A.k.a. playing a female character? Have this bikini armor. But that wasn't the point...

Instead, they chortled, made jokes about 'magazines,' and visibly diminished her with a series of blow-off replies. THAT'S what makes it sexist... not that the content is in the game (because it is in almost all games), but that, when confronted about it, they couldn't treat her like a human being asking a legitimate question in front of a crowd that, in all likelihood, was hostile towards her interests (deep down, I doubt too many of those guys present really wanted the plate bikinis to vanish). She was brave, and they handled it like cowardly imbeciles.

Yes, exactly. I'm sure them bringing up the "cow race" there couldn't possibly have been taken the completely wrong way.


Also, so many cowardly men are now covering their tracks "I was too far away", "I had no idea", "I have a wife and daughters btw, I can't be bad". It's really pathetic...
