Which one?


Frankly I thought jlib was answering a idiotic statement with another one to point out how stupid the original was.

And as usual the thread has disintegrated into childish posturing and "No U" attacks.

Alas it's early int he morning so chances are this thread won't be closed for another few hours.

Ah well. Might as well enjoy the circle jerk *gets popcorn*.

I've been enjoying this thread for hours. In fact, I posted this back on page 4, but I think it's even more applicable now:

Jlb's reasoning, obviously.

Right, I used an analogy for that purpose.

Apparently, the analogy is 'flawed'.

...It's probably best not to call someone a moron for a typo when you didn't even bother placing your period correctly.

Your claim was that sexual minorities don't deserve as many options as the majority in a video game.

Let's expand that and say, sexual minorities don't deserve as many options as the majority in X.

Now insert some other type of commodity for X and have fun.


It's basic math. You don't deserve as many options as the majority here because that's the way people are. Most people are straight. You're comparison to inanimate objects doesn't make sense when you consider they don't have sex, don't think, etc.

Maybe you'd have a point if I was saying gay players should only be able to use 1/10 water fountains in the game, but I'm not saying that. I'm saying it should be a somewhat realistic universe. But some of the S/S group members here seem to think that Bioware should give them some sort of "utopia" where everybody will sleep with them and people no longer think for themselves about things like sex.

I'd
congratulate myself for hitting a nerve, but you know, achieving that
from you is easier than knowing that your arguments will degrade to
"wasted resources" and "vocal minorities."


Hitting a nerve? Nah, I was just pointing out that you aren't nearly as clever or funny as
you think yourself to be. Sorry if the truth hurts. Come back around when your "argument" is more
than boring .jpegs and .gifs.

There only was one fallacy, and that was Jlb's replacing X with a completely unrelated commodity..

Of course you'd think that.

Problem with that, is that it's a slippery slope. Options in a video game don't even begin to compare to public transportation. I doubt the inconvenience of not being able to choose 5 S/S romances you would want would bother you as much as not being able to 5 different transportations that you need. I understand that you wish to speak out for someone that is in the minority, but making such arguments don't work very well.  They can't have fun, because the argument is immediately ended the minute the person rationalizes that video games are wants. Public transportation in modern society is practically a necessity.

And most people take looks into consideration. None of LIs do that. Ohh and most women don't date guys who beat other women for no reason. Yeah and most people take morals into account and won't date someone who's morality is complete opposite to his/her. And of course the number of men so handsome and attractive to have 90% of his female co-workers/cubordinates/classmates be into him is probably way smaller than the number of gay people in society.

So, you were talking about real-life examples of realism being applied to ME romances?
