Thread: ridiculous female armors (and other outfits) for women gamers

Rudolph Quin said Actually, ever hear of the Female Power Fantasy? Just like the male counterpart of the same name, it is about wish fulfillment and self-insertion. A lot of us wish to be adored, loved, admired and powerful and a lot of women enjoy the fantasy of being badass, kicking ass and taking names and being sexy as fuck while doing it. And believe it or not, it has nothing to do with what men want at all but a woman's ability to choose for herself and a desire to look good and be in control. Video games and comic books often offer this means of escapism in the exact same ways they do for men. Click to expand... That's a fair argument, but it isn't one that I normally consider for specific game genres, like the fighting game examples from my previous post. For things such as World of Warcraft, Elder Scrolls, and other such very large role playing games MMOs or otherwise, the female power fantasy is certainly something that I take into consideration. I've certainly met my fair share of ladies that love those kinds of games. For other genres of games, however, I don't feel that it is much of a factor. I'm not one of those real girls don't play video games dickheads, but when it comes to specific gaming genres, there is most definitely a large skew in the player-base that leans toward a male crowd. When I was big into Battlefield, I might have encountered one woman in every ten games or so. Albeit, I am sure that most females that play shooters like that just avoid the voice chat altogether because of the aforementioned horny teenage boys, but I can't be expected to account for such an unknown. Of course, that's a different problem entirely and most shooters don't give the option to run around the battlefield in a string bikini. Dead or Alive, however, does shamelessly so. Combined with the physics of that game, with female breasts bouncing like basketballs every time that you tap the analog stick, there is just no way that I can think the ladies of DoA are targeted towards the whole female power fantasy angle. There are a few that are a little more modest and a lot more reasonably shaped that I can see as an exception. Keeping to the theme of the thread, however, the Female Power Fantasy is a fantastic point to be made. Though I don't go for armor bikinis for my own female characters, I've always had odd, conservative tastes.

Your personal experience is not indicative of whether or not women play games. They do. All different body types and all different types of tastes, which is why a lot of fighting games will offer multiple options when it comes to body types and outfit choices. I haven't played Dead or Alive but the sexiness of the outfits doesn't matter. That's what a lot of female power fantasies involve. It's a fantasy for a reason and I think stuff like the comic above about the viability of armor is kind of strawmanning, personally. I used to get Barbed Wire comics all the time as a kid, and all my female characters when I started drawing were a mix of that body type and Sailor Moon. Because both ladies were so badass and they looked good. It was my ideal, my fantasy, to have those physics impossible bod, wearing leather and heels and breasts barely covered and kick the ass of a gang of drug-running bikers who couldn't tell me shit to do. I even used to cosplay like that. Had nothing to do with men who liked the games or who wanted to look at me. It was about emulation of a hero of mine, getting to live in a fantasy. Another thing that we can consider about these types of outfits, and I don't think the fact that I grew up to be both genderfluid and pansexual deflates my above argument at all what about the nonbinary crowd? Like bisexual women, pansexual women, and lesbians who like breasts and like to see breasts or transwomen who also want to live out a fantasy. Plus there are a growing number of game devs in this day and age who are not only women but on top of that, lesbians, bisexuals, etc. To say game devs blatantly make these games to pander to hetero menchildren only and it's wrong! is not only erasure of all the different types of people who can and do play these games, enjoying them for a multititude of reasons, not only the FPF but also yes, to ogle some pretty jugs that flop around while you fight, but it is also really condescending to women. We can have autonomy of our bodies and we can and often do choose to look sexy to feel sexy, even in fantasy.

Okay... So I'm not sure how it can even be considered justified to quote my post, cut half of it out, then use only whatever is left to launch an attack on my person. To retort to the valid points that you have made, however, you are correct in that my personal experiences are not wholly indicative of... well, anything. My personal experiences, however, are all that I have to run on in regards to the subject. Do ladies play all kinds of games? Of course they do. I never said that they did not. There are certain games, however, that have an undeniable trend of having a smaller female crowd than others. Whether this is a fact of the genre or an audible illusion created simply by less females choosing to use voice communications in said games is not something that I can tell you with certainty, nor will I pretend that it is. As for the game developers, I never said that their pandering to specific crowds was wrong. Sex sells. It's a truth of the world we live in and it isn't 'wrong' to make use of that truth. It's just a sound business decision. I don't even want to touch on the subject of gay, lesbian, transexual, or bisexual gamers because anything that I say as a straight male can and will, by one person or another be misconstrued in some manner. What I will say is that I think it's fantastic when anyone outside of the gaming community decides to take a game for a spin, regardless of their reason. Video games have evolved into a form of art in my opinion, and just like with more conventional means of artwork, it's always great to see one specific work bring so many different flavors of people together. I never meant any offense and I can certainly understand the desire to escape out of one's own skin and into another. I'm sure that is a something that everyone on these forums can relate to seeing as this is a role playing and writing site.

I was not attacking you. huh Are you talking about my first sentence? I was politely letting you know that what you were saying actually did sound like what you professed to not want to be saying. That is all. No offense taken at all and I don't want you to feel scared off because someone might be offended. Unless you intend to be insulting and demeaning, that's not your or my problem. If you do decide to go, I have enjoyed discussing this with you and would like to talk about it more, if you're open to that. All in all, the topic is a funny one, and I can understand how a lot of more conservative women wouldn't like to wear those costumes. The reason I latched onto you at all is because of the recitation that I hear a lot on these subjects about sexy female characters and I merely wanted to engage with you to let you know, that there are other options than the one you presented, namely that game devs are pandering to horny teenagers or horny men. I cut some of your post because it was long and I wasn't really addressing whether or not you hear women playing a game as indicative of whether they are there or not. They are.

Thread: My dreadful nightmares (and maybe some delightful dreams)

Well, greetings to whoever wandering soul is reading this topic at the expenses of knowing what pains is suffering this martyr of a soul. Here i will be writing some out-of-me thoughts about my daily life and some things people may deserve to know. And nothing is more sad than to start with very bad news that really made my eyes water more than once this day... My college, whom i had a really close relationship with and so did my whole class of twenty-one students, just passed away today when a drunken driver in a truck just rammed her and continued his way. The car was left totaled, and the guy left free because in Uruguay there is a law that states A drunken person or under the effects of any alcoholic product, is foreign to any incident produced in this state. The 'drunken' state is per se, free of guilt. So the guy is wandering the streets once again. This shows how little of justice is in this repulsive world...I'm going to be bad for a while now...
Thread: My dreadful nightmares (and maybe some delightful dreams)

Well, it seems i'm finally better over the death of said person. It seems that crime pays after all as a group of unknown people burnt down his house as they wished to take justice in their own hands. I say that was unnecesary, but he deserved it. He truly deserved it. Well, after all, it seemed that the depression lasted a bit longer than i imagined and i'm finally doing well at work and college once again. I cheer for the people who are happy at life, for i am too. And remember, never let something hurt you...nothing. Oh, and maybe i'll be absent somewhere in the week of July 1st - July 8th, because in my country we have holidays there and i might go abroad. Just a heads up that might or not happen. I shall notify you.

Thread: The Vampire Prince (Loneiy x Eyes)

She had never been liked. Never. In fact, just because of who her grandmother was, her mother was dispised, and then the trickle down all the way to her. Her grandmother, Raven, the one she was named after, was a medicine woman. A child had become very ill when taking her medicine and died. The town had cast her out to the outskirts of the village. Deemed her an unclean. Her grandmother had been pregnant with her mother. Her mother, Bea, was not liked at all. She begged adn nearly starved to death several times. So at the time of Raven's death, Bea began to find that the knights would pay for sex. Her mother had concieved Raven when in th arms of a commander who found her company and even sent a few good coins to Bea. But eventually, when Raven was four, the commander was married and her mother killed herself. A broken heart was too painful to bear. Then that was when Raven promised never to fall in love or become the victim. Raven had learned quickly how to use her charm to disarm her victims and cut the purses from their belts. She was really good. More than once she framed the fat wife of a commander with teh coin purse of a lord. She had also made the children of the fat wife eat bugs and worms unknowingly. Raven lived alone, and no one would care. She didn't. Raven cared very little. In the middle of the night on some full moons she would run through the village terrorizing the town drunkards so sometimes they would run into the river and drown. Raven spread the rumor that her grandmother and mother were angry spirits and would exact their revenge when the moon was full and the prince of the kingdom bid them rise from their graves. People seemed honestly in fear of the prince, so they began putting out gold and valuables in front of the prince's kingdom gates before the full moon. But the prince never recieved them. Raven did. Raven was now a very beautiful young lady. She stood 5'7 and more often than not stayed to herself, cutting the purses of travelers, drowning the occassional drunk and always feeding the fat wife and her children bugs. Some habits die hard. Raven was sitting on her porch in the middle of the day, eating an apple and let a booted foot swing back and forth. Her black hair blowing in teh breeze as her amber eyes watched the trail. It was getting dark, but she had no where else to be. Black clothes clung to her form as she watched the path carefully every once and a while taking a bite of an apple.
