Plea to devs to address the sexism
Feminists are all the same, yeah, obviously.
/facepalm PS : this thread is not just about feminists. np god I'm leaving this thread coz this is gonna be a damn waste of time, as always. The OP made his point and a lot of people actually just shown that there is a problem amongst part the community. SSF is not and will never be a standard for balance, it is not for people entitled to getting more without trading. Последняя редакция: Fruz#6137. Время: 9 нояб. 2013 г., 16:23:46

Well I'm a girl and never really thought of it before. It's just stylistic art in tune with the gritty nature of the game.
I don't consider things sexist when it's relevant to the game itself. Same way that showing slavery is not racist. Последняя редакция: kasub#2910. Время: 9 нояб. 2013 г., 16:32:29

@OP - I'd use the option to turn the globe-candy off if I could. It reduces my overall enjoyment of the game. Not by much, though; I don't understand why your wife cares about it to such a degree.
" Whereas in reality, everything is about you, right? Fancy some woman being concerned about her own rights and what offends her, when she should realise that that presumptuous attitude actually offends you. And as a man, your rights are clearly more important. " So if they had black people chained to the globes, a la the US slavery-era, you'd think that were fine? Face it, all of your suggestions are worse than this idea: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/657756 Последняя редакция: dudiobugtron#4663. Время: 9 нояб. 2013 г., 16:51:34

Wow, for realz? I read the title and thought that must be a troll. But it is real.
All in all i have to say to that movement: Good luck with your lifes. GGG cant comment on this because they havent stopped laughing yet. OT: If its so offensive, just play in window mode and get an overlay. With Jesus and guns and little kittens. That shouldnt offend anyone. Edit: People should post with their mains if they want to be taken seriously. Последняя редакция: sintflut2012#1326. Время: 9 нояб. 2013 г., 16:59:49

" When you name your... ideology as "feminism" you're already being sexist. Masculism isn't a thing, is it? If you strive for equality, name your movement, ideology or whatever based on that. also, have you actually found out what the feminists want? " So having white slaves is right, a la the middle east slavery-era, when white people were enslaved? The US is not the only goddamn country in the world, try learning about the world a little. As for the OP, it's part of the world lore. No one in the PoE world is politically correct. |

" It is, sadly. " I chose 'black people' since I thought it would resonate with the person I was replying to better. Note that the Romans also had white slaves (and black slaves), and many other cultures had slavery too. I can definitely understand why someone might be offended by slavery; can you? Note also that the statues in PoE are made of stone or metal or something, and don't have a skin colour.

" No, not at all. http://www.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/english/feminism " The fact that there nothing politically correct in PoE's lore is true and is a good point. The player evolves in this universe and that's what kinda makes the charm of it. However, I believe that even though the GUI is part of the game, this puts things as a completely different level. Having to deal with some unpleasant fact in the content is one thing. Having the game forcing to permanently look at something is another one. I don't have any problem with those chained naked women, I didn't think that someone who get uncomfortable because of that. But it is apparently the case, and even though it's not a huge thing ( to me at least ), it can be considerated as sexist ( imho ). SSF is not and will never be a standard for balance, it is not for people entitled to getting more without trading.

Feminism is not about equal rights because its based on an assumption that men have it overall better than women, which is yet to be proven
If you strive for equal rights for both sexes, you are a humanist, not a feminist |

No =/.
Feminism is about fighting when there is a matter to fight. If there was no discrimination with gender, feminism wouldn't exist ( maybe some people would create it to go to far, but that woudln't be right, not that it doesn't exist already ). Unfortunately, even not on purpose, there is and will be discrimination. And humanism is not that, not at all. SSF is not and will never be a standard for balance, it is not for people entitled to getting more without trading.
