playing a videogame isn't a sign of maturity or lack thereof any more than following sports or watching a movie.
I find it fascinating that it's only men who are expected to live up to these "maturity" standards.
I beg to differ. Video games are for kids/teens.
And yes men should be held up to maturity standards, thats the porblem with society. Where we think Men can stay boys forever and not teach the next generation what it means to be a man. So the cycle continues and you have infintile men as the next generation that focus more on Video games and old toys rather than family and bringing up their kids to be providers and protectors.
And Woman have their place to, and should focus on raising their children and creating a strong home enviroment (while still working of course not get in the kitchen and make me a sandwhich). Both parents should be focusing on making a strong family with strong work ethic and focus on eductation and hard work.
Maybe thats one reason why society is so fucked and Gen Z and millenials are so self absorbed and selfish. Why we have so many mental issues in the younger generation. No strong parents to set ground rules and examples for children to follow. Instead its hey you can be a kid even into your 50's and focus on games and toys.
One of the richest, most accomplished dudes on the entire planet plays vidya games. Who gives a shit.
thats great, not everyone is going to be the richest dude on the planet.
Look nothing wrong with games I play em too. But when I was younger many of my friends parents didn't focus their days on video games or old toys or cartoons or other kid stuff. They worried about adult things.
I guess this comes off bad that I am "shitting" on everyons favorite hobby.
I am not trying to demonize video games here like they will make you kill people.
But these things are for kids/teens. Keeping adults infantile can't be good for society and I personally think its one of the reasons we have all these issues with the younger generation today and how they act. Of course you got social media and other nonsense in there. But not having strong men but man childs surely isn't helping
** and not every video game player is a manchild and if you play video games doesn't mean your kids will be fucked up***
