Who is she again? She sounds like a totally fun person to hang out with.
Postmodern witch hunting.Developers are being legit blackmailed by the threat of social media retaliation and mass damning by the (non gamers who do not buy games or play games anyway) masses and it is honestly rather disturbing how blatant it is and yet the kowtowing continues.
Now, if she would have said this I might have actually agreed.
"No more excuses for the lack of game play at E3"

There were tons of women at E3 doing presentations and in general. And has been. I don't know what she's talking about?
Tbf the argument she presents, at least from what I remember, is something along the lines of games perpetuating it's toxic culture which I personally believe has some basis in truth (take a look at any multiplayer/MMO community as an example). I detest Anita as much as anyone but there's no denying the "response" (death and rape threats, etc) she's received is inexcusable not to mention made it more difficult for any forum of legitimate discussion or criticism.
That said I hate this emphasis on "muh representation" that's become so prevalent in recent years in regards to basically all creative fields.
What about women who find other women sexually attractive? Don't they want to bring back booth babes, too?Remember kids, it's simply flat out wrong for men to enjoy the sight of attractive women.
If you find a woman sexually attractive, that of course can only mean you hate women and see them as below you, certainly there's not a single man alive that enjoys beautiful women and isn't also a raging misogynist?

Evidently women like that don't exist according to SJWs.
And wearing revealing costumes in public is only ever demeaning, which is why so many female cosplayers wear revealing costumes in public of their own accord and without pay.
Can we talk about how 40% of the Smash Bros season pass is linked to homophobia?
First we have Joker, the protagonist of Persona 5, a game which has horrible homophobic stereotypes of gay men that repeatedly try to sexually assault a high schooler. This is nothing new for the Persona series either. Persona 3 includes an incredibly transphobic scene while one of your party...www.resetera.com
It's weird isn't it when an 88 year old Japanese man who was alive during WWII doesn't have the same opinions on contemporary social issues as 22 year old college graduates.
It's just fucking weird.
Edit: In fairness most posters are saying it's a reach.
Pride month y'all!And each and every one of those posters are getting banned lmao

How does that forum even have a user base?
Do people, after being banned for calling out virtue signaling moron, come back and try to fit in the cool club?
Okay so bring your friends kickstarter scam game to show off at E3.
Given those buff topless men, clearly a misogynistic male power fantasy of some kind, since we all know that type of physique has nothing to do with male attractiveness.What in the world is that?!

Hello!
Got banned there for suggesting jokes that reference old memes aren't hate crimes, after a warning for arguing that large breasts are not sexist and infact something a lot of real women possess.
I love the point of killing of well paid jobs for women (booth babes) who worked really hard on their fitness regimen.There were lots of women at E3 before (the booth babes, cos players), they're all gone...…..

"Their is no possible way i'm going to allow men to have more of a good time then me. Get rid of those woman. "
Unless, she's talking about more women representation in games....or more women game-developer leads on-stage talking about their projects....Which I find, there was quite a bit of at this E3, and even in the past tbh....I love the point of killing of well paid jobs for women (booth babes) who worked really hard on their fitness regimen.

Retarded bullshit from the mind of an ignorant self-victimizing person.What in the world is that?!
I've lost hope for the new Gears at this point.Heard somewhere that the Gears devs are signed up to some women in games initiative. Explains the strange out of place tone the new one has.
Seriously, the most macho IP in gaming history to be associated with such a thing.
Female Representation in Videogames Isn't Getting Any Better
The number of female protagonists in games showcased at E3 has remained low for years.www.wired.com
I wish I were. Sadly you're using logic instead of hatred.Do you mean a misandrist male power fantasy.
Maybe the constant blanket accusations of misogyny towards developers and publishers in order to drum up fake moral outrage isn't the best way to get funding. Anita is one of the most toxic elements in the gaming industry, does she really expect to be paid by the very same people that she keeps attacking?
Her tired criticism has run its course and she has clearly nothing more to bring to the table. Just let her slip into irrelevancy.
She need to complain to stay relevance.
Seriously, it's her job to find something to be upset about and then collecting Paetron money.
As long as its bikini clad booth babes, i'm all for it.
It's all about that proper representation of women in the games industry...
Are booth babes still a thing at E3? I remember in the early years of E3, when just about every major publishers would hire women for their E3 booths. Personally, I was always OK with this, within reason. The majority of those booth babes were happy to get a gig as big as E3, and were all paid well.
Anita's brand of feminism did away with that. Which means it contributed to a loss in female jobs. Which probably helped contribute to the wage gap. Which I'm sure feminists like her ironically complain about.
Imagine all the women that were reduced to being full time strippers or move to live streaming just to make ends meet. I oddly know a few women like that, myself.
Why do SJW's have to be so hard on attractive women?
Clearly it's because of their own complexes. Either they grew up believing they weren't attractive or something happened to them that scarred them. Your pictures were a perfect illustration of the cognitive dissonance people like them have. Their caricatures depict three thin and traditionally attractive women. When illustrated through a more realistic lens, not so much. So when it comes to anything that is a celebration of attractive women, to me, it's clearly a lash out that they're not typically considered a part of that. I mean I get it. It's difficult to face the reality that you're not that great looking by most standards and it must be especially hard for women since men are very visual creatures. But their temper tantrums are not helping anyone.
The ironic thing is, as visual as men are, we have much, MUCH lower standards than women.
When men and women rate images of each without context, women's looks come out as a typical bell line, most average, about half again as above or below average, a d half again beautiful or ugly.
Women put most mens looks as below average to ugly, with fewer 'average' looking men than men think there are above average women, and barely any rated as handsome.
It's why dating apps like Tinder and the rest end up with 80% of the women going after the same 20% of the most handsome, muscular, well dressed and rich appearing guys.
Males might care about looks first and foremost, but they're also far less fussy and more realistic about actual real life dating options.
