[Eraser]

lol, I hadn't heard of this game but it sounds like it's brilliant... moreso because it pisses off feminist activist groups.

I use Yahoo Mail and noticed the article on the news page when you log out of Yahoo Mail.

maybe they should create a game based on this and katamari: first feed the girl, and when she's big enough roll her around to pick up stuff...

[Underpants?]

i'm thinking it was lazy sarcasm

[Therac-25]

it's not "against" anyone.... you're trying to save the whale, not beach her....

A couple of posts by female game bloggers does not constitute pissed off feminist activist groups.

I don't personally have a problem with the game, but yes, it does seem to be the case that fatness is looked down on more in women than in men, and no, the fact that the concept was created by a woman doesn't necessarily stop it being sexist against women.

yet, nobody cares that the main male character in most sitcoms are depicted as the dumbass and not the female. if roles were reversed, that would sure raise some hell.

people just need to quit crying about shit and relax.

Fatness is looked down on in women more than in men just as weakness is looked down on in men more than women.

Beauty and power are female and male defining characteristics, respectively.

Duh.

if this game had a slim princess as a main character, these cows would be crying about how games are guilty of the same crime the modelling world is.

boo fucking hoo. if you cant stand being fat, eat one less pie a day instead of lashing out

I'm pretty sure someone cares enough to have written about it. There's certainly been a few articles about how the latest crop of Apatow comedies feature lovabley irresponsible loser men, and smart, responsible, but shrewishly humourless leading women.

Maybe you should care too, if you think it has wider influence on society. It seems like maybe you secretly have an opinion there.

This was just a couple of people expressing their opinions on their blogs. You honestly think people ought to be more relaxed than that?

That's a fair, if simplified assessment of the status quo, yes. What's your point?

no, actually i don't care, it's just something that's obvious. I understand that the american sheep are greatly influenced by what's on network television, but i do not fall into that category.

people cry on blogs too.
