It is possible to get behavourial universals, but only if your society forces them on people. not because they are biological.

But I'm up for some debating before this gets locked so please, enlighten me.


all babies cry


All humans communicate.

but that hardly means it's a gender specific thing, which is what I'm arguing against.


we all know that boys like cards and girls like dolls

Now this has just turned pathetic. Why haven't we just given up? Let these people have their strange conversations, there's obviously no way to argue with them.


Yeah, I just cannot understand why they didn't want to give us one measley topic to talk to fellow girl gamers. Not a topic to discuss superiority of the women's "race", not to oppress men but just... talk to fellow nice girls. I guess it's too much to ask. :whistle:

My opinion: Society has an increasingly feminine influence on men. Thus men behaving like women and therefore blaming others for their problems and insecurities.

I hope i offended both genders.


Well done!

We should all get offended until we can't get offended unless it's really something worth being offended about. The things people get offended about these days are so inocuous it's ridiculous.

So I shouldn't be offended when I get assumed to be an idiot just because I'm a guy? Or Nissun shouldn't be offended when the only girl to get any attention in a movie is the chick with the giant ******? What are people supposed to be offended about? Because we're supposed to just accept the fact that we're all antelopes and that isn't offensive at all. This has lost all sense of logic.

I have a friend who believes aliens walk among us disguised as Chinese people and there's a detention centre under the local store... ya can't argue with him either. See, he knows he's right. He read this stuff, he saw statistics... there's concrete evidence. He's enlightened, he knows the truth, everyone else is living in a fairytale blah blah blah.
But when the apocalypse hits in 21/12/12 everyone will know he was right... maybe I'll see how he's going now that it's 23/12/12.

It's the reason female politicians have their appearance judged, despite the fact that they are not freaking meant to appeal to anyone's eyes. But society does this, men and women, because it's ingrained in our minds that, even if her job does not call for it, a woman has to be sexually attractive.


It didn't help Sarah Palin LOL....

Every "hey luk at me i'm a girl playing a video gaem guise!" thread that has ever been posted on a gaming forum has been incredibly stupid, I don't see how this one would be any different.

I guess I should go and post a thread letting everyone know I am an athiest, regardless of the fact that it is not really relevant to how efficiently I kill bots in this game's tacked on multiplayer

We've more than just 1 or two ladies here.

I doubt if they'll all reply within a 12 minute span, though.

I actually meet quite a few while gaming.


I'd reply, but would the thread be on topic by the time I replied?

Evidently, no :wizard:

'I can see Russia from my house'

Don't care that she didn't say it, no one's getting elected after a blunder that can produce that kind of mockery.

You should just start playing different conspiracies off each other to confuse him.

The best part about the Mayan thing is that if you spent 10 minutes looking up the Mayan long count calendar, you'd find out that not even the Mayans thought the world was going to end.

Pretty much this.

The only people who care if someone is a girl gamer are the perverts and the white knights. I care about how good you are at killing bad guys.... that's it.

Try an example from a commercial. It's more pertinent to what's being discussed. Victoria Secret commercials are not there to get women to buy things for men, but to get men to buy things for women.


That's lingerie. Transformers was a movie about giant robots.

And how the hell is Megan Fox's character appealing to my, or any woman's vanity? She's a freaking joke! She's just a sexy model on which Michael Bay glued some traits like "she's a mechanic" and... "action chick" or whatever, I don't remember her that well.

I celebrate that she's not passive, like so many female characters in hollywood used to be. But that does not compensate for the fact that, first and foremost, she is a sexual thing. The most important thing about her, it's that she's sexy. All the rest comes after that.

It's the reason female politicians have their appearance judged, despite the fact that they are not freaking meant to appeal to anyone's eyes. But society does this, men and women, because it's ingrained in our minds that, even if her job does not call for it, a woman has to be sexually attractive.


Both sexes do this, as Stardusk previously stated... just in different ways. Men find certian appearances more respectful, appealing etc. Women find certian appearances more respectful, appealing, etc. Everyone either tries to live up to the image or disregard it, but the expectation is something both sexes have to contend with. What I mean to say, is that you shouldn't take it personally.

The most important thing about a male character is what? The popular answer is 'funny'. But the actual behavior says something different.

Of course a female in a movie is someone that we're interacting with for what, two hours tops? They're are different things wanted from a female that you know for two hours, than one you know longer than that. You shouldn't take the two hour expectation personally if you're interacting with people for more than two hours. :)

Yet the my little pony thread was removed  and this one  worse.  Go ahead and ban me but whoever is modding today is doing a bad job almost 3 entire pages of the forum are spam right now and you should be ashamed.

I don't think Megan Foxx has that large a bust. As I said her appeal is mostly in her eyes, and perhaps her behavior (The only role I ever liked her in was 'How to Lose Friends and Alienate People).

Movies are not life, you shouldn't get offended by fantasy in my opinion.

I came here out of curiosity and boredom, and I was reading everything on the front page. I didn't say anything until people started saying the only thing a woman wants is a provider and that they all hate men.

Now this thread is just sad with people thinking they can determine what very person on earth thinks at every Monet of the day because they looked at some fancy numbers.

Women like stupid men? well, guess I'm ****ed

I'm sorry, did we not just have pages of Stardusk et al. whining about commercials depicting men as buffoons in an appeal to sell things to women, who control the pocketbook, society and the world from their ivory tower designed by Georgia O'Keeffe? Was that not where this topic has been wallowing for the last while? And then we turn around and try to say Megan Foxx's character in Transformers is empowering to women and not vacuous T&A for men?

So why do these threads always blow up then?  It's not the perverts or the white knights who blow them out of the water.
