maybe guys should stop obssessing over girl gamers and find a girl who just respects your gaming hobby.
I much prefer that my boyfriend doesnt game as much as I do and isnt as interested in games but is able to respect that I am and can ocasionally enjoy it with me while he'll also share his interests with me.

I've started lurking in 2011/12 so I'm not that familiar with her, but I do see her from time to time here on VGChartz though!

Long story short. It was all because of a joke that Galaki made about PMS when a female (I think that it was Marucha) typed PMs in a thread title. It wasn't an offensive joke at all but she flew off of the handle, told off all of the mods because nothing was done, took off with some of her female friends, and created her own site called VGirlz which ironically doesn't allow men (not that that's sexist or anything).

So basically it's all Galaki's fault.

VGirlz allows men. I'm a member, and so are Jaywood and Bananaking, iirc. Man, i forgot about that forum.

I don't think guys are obsessing over girl gamers. The only girls you are going to find on forums ARE girl gamers.

That doesnt really matter though. Its still pandering to male fantasies in a way that makes this media a lot more juvinile than most care to admit


First of all, there is a difference between "sexy" and "sexist".
Second of all, what is the problem with Samus dressing in similar attire to what a significant amount of women wear when exercising? That is relatively common exercise gear, and it is similar to the typical outfit for Women's MMA...
Third, the problem is not about objectification of women, the idea is the general idealization of both sexes in many regards, and I don't really see that as a problem. Its normal that most characters in every medium are attractive, and sometimes, both men and women are put in situations and outfits which highlight their attractive aspects.

still it's unhealthy not having healthy relationships and being able to interact with both genders, like girls who cant get along with girls... those have serious issues. a healthy social life and interactions with other human beings is one of the keys to a happy healthy life... and not creeping out everyone else.

and not doing it exclusively online is VERY important. Join in an activity, sport, hobby, club that exposes you to interaction with people. Go on outings with work coleagues, whatever. Some people should realize that their ineptitude to relate to other human beings is very easy to transpire in their online interactions as well.
