I'd reply but I kind of covered it in my above post. Your argument is fine, Sqrl, some gamers are in it for the boobies, but that's not what this guy is complaining about.

 

I'm glad you approve

Honestly I didn't think there was much disagreement between you two overall.  I think you both are saying pretty much the same thing but driving at it from opposite directions.

/shrug, thats my take on it anyways

Oh I don't mean blaydcor. I mean the guy who wrote the article at IGN.

As I said:

You make a fair point that can be applied to both of the sexes but isn't generally noticed for male characters as much because the feminine perspective is rarely considered outside of female gaming circles. However, I will argue that the article-writer's point is not your point; he primarily cites characters who are not examples of this, and complains more loudly of women who are stoic and wise-cracking, and of "forced sexual equality" more than tits and ass. You can't make an argument for forced sexual equality and sexual exploitation in the same breath, and his examples supported his umbrage with the former, not the latter.
