...is, I think, when Morrigan and Dog interact and there's an option to tell Morrigan that a dead animal "couldn't be stinkier than what usually goes into" her underwear.

Get it? lol.  Women's sex organs smell like fish.  Or dead animals.  Or something gross. 

Mmm...smells like misogyny.

I'm pretty sure I'm not being a hardline feminist here saying this line is specifically expressing hatred for women's genitals.  It's not like I don't call crap when people say "lolol the penis is so ugly" (especially "lolol the uncircumsized penis is so ugly") and happily support the artists I know actively working to take the perception of obscenity from male nudes in art andthe  American media.  However, Dragon Age in particular doesn't have a throwaway line (that I know of) describing men's sex organs as an object for disgust.

And yet a female writer wrote it?

Or the endearing ability to laugh at ones self.

Which the OP clearly lacks.

Sorry, but my impression is that this was just meant as an amusing poke at Morrigan -- I didn't even get the impression that the player needs to be serious when he/she says it. If we aren't "equal opportunity" enough to also include disparaging remarks about male genitalia then I guess we'll just have to bear that heavy burden.

You wrote that line, didn't you?

You know it. I also wrote the line where you get to tell Leliana to shut up and help make dinner that someone declared was cruel.

I just hate myself and all others of my sex. Clearly. I mean, I was talking about it to Mary and she said that she's at a loss to think of a single line I've written that wasn't a deep insult to all women everywhere, ever.

Uhm.... I hate to tell Mary she's wrong, or maybe my X chomosome is malfunctioning, but I did a spit take at seeing that line the first time from laughing so hard. So I guess Mary doesn't think I'm a woman

When you think of Mary, think of Sten, she is equally awful towards her own sex. *shakes fist at self hating women*

Yep. Clearly, Ariella, you are also a woman-hater. Care to join the Traitors To Our Sex ™ club? Club membership gives you discounts at Wifebeaters "R" Us, Barefoot 'n Preggers and Sephora.

Okay, okay. I think the circus is over, folks.



The wackadoo has moved on, and so should all of you.
