The Unfortunate Truth - Uncovering Sexism in Destiny
It has come to my attention that in the new innovative shooter to be released by Bungie may not be all it is cracked up to be. On the surface, we see the marriage of two classic games, Halo and Borderlands. But there is something far nastier deep within, that Bungie does not want you to know about. Yes, my fellow gamers, this game is encouraging and perpetuating the rape culture in America today.
Before you plug your ears and pretend that this game does not encourage the objectification and submission of women, hear me out. I'll start with the smallest thing first. On the website, the character models depicting the various guardians are all male. Yes, [i]all of them[/i] are depicted as male. Not only is this encouraging patriarchy, but it also shows that being male should clearly be the first choice when considering which gender to choose for your character. I propose that each Guardian be shown as male and female, equally. In addition to this, if you do choose a female character, their faces are covered by masks. This is the exact same thing that occurs with women in the Middle East, to prevent other men from infringing on the "property" of a man. This is absolutely disgusting.
Let us move on to a greater issue. The body types of Guardians in Destiny are encouraging rape. Hey, did you know that there is [i]more[/i] than one body type? By limiting our options to a single body shape and not allowing for plus-sized women, we are encouraging that women continue to objectify themselves further to please the patriarchal fascism that is driving this country apart. Objectification is one of the many facets of this disgusting rape culture, and by perpetuating this, we are encouraging the continued mass-raping of women everywhere.
So, we have the objectification of women through forced mask wearing and the limited body type options. The continued objectification of women in video games is yet another way we are perpetuating rape culture. By continuing to encourage this culture, we are continuing the encouragement of rape itself. Tell me now, do you feel good about being a part of the further stamping-out of women's rights? All the hyping up of Destiny is just a plot to drive the idea that "women are your property" further into your brains. Well, guess what? Not me. I see past the lies and smokescreen, and go straight to the unfortunate truth. I encourage you all to cancel your preorders of this game, in the first step in fighting the discrimination against women through video games.
Thank you for your time :)

Yeah, the advertising sucks and the models could be more diverse (my awoken hunter looks silly, the exo gets a break). The female characters more than make up for it and I'll take that over a lot of games today. Don't go acting like you speak for all feminists.

[quote]patriarchal fascism[/quote] Hmmmmm no wonder some people don't respect radical feminists like you. After all, you are saying that us men are fascists. And i don't think you realize that [url=http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godwin%27s_law]-godwinslaw!-[/url] were fascists. Comparing us to fascists? Stop whining you deserve it

Aren't you the crazy looking woman no one pays attention to on the street!? ........ what makes you think you're going to get an audience here?....... I stopped reading after the second sentence.......... you also don't even play this game? F*ck off some where else for attention
-
You preach about equality between sexes yet only focus on female problems. Why is there only one male body type? Why didn't you bring that up in your speech? Oh that's right because you aren't looking for equality you're looking to play the victim
-
Seriously it's a game, if you feel that way stop playing and go fight for a cause that's real.

1 OdpowiedźYour right men are pigs One time in hell a white male scream and cries? Why does the black lawyer get to spend hell with a white female. I snapped and said who are you to pass punishment on the female

This gave me a good laugh.

Not only is the best satire I've read all day, I also asked my roommate to run my head over in are drive way.
-
Oh god I can imagine all the people who will fall for this bait lol.
-
being that men make up a majority of the paying gaming community...it only makes sense that it's their target market so shut up meg. Us men don't get half off drinks on fridays and saturdays for a reason
-
So physically fit trained combatants should be fat? Be a bit of a crappy game if you could only run 3 steps before having a 20 minute sit down to recover or only get 3 inches off the ground with triple jump. These feminazis are simply a fascist group hell bent on superiority not equality. Please just go back to your position of grovelling at sarkeesian's alter of nonsense. BTW not many men look like Marcus fenix but we ain't shouting for chubby protagonists in games to justify our shi@$¥ lifestyle choices.

Hey, a lot of the guys don't have muscles. Are they suddenly not being objectified. No?

1 OdpowiedźForgot the sarcasm tag. Also forgot that men are people too Also forgot that video games objectify men's bodies. But that's none of my business....

-blam!- you cat!

You silly feminist. To think that some one up in the chain thought to them self "hmm.. fat guardian women? Nah haha that will show those feminist and guide the mind of America to -blam!- their objectified women" sure they did I think your the one objectifying women. By pointing at the imaginary problem you just make it into something like a McCarthy list. I hope everyone sees your bullshit cause some might take from your pessimistic ways and that's not a good way to live

For body types I'm not sure bungie had to really think about it. Come on, a super fat female warlock. Were is the fun in that
-
Err Males AND females both only get one body type each. This isn't elder scrolls with infinite customisations I can only assume this is some epic fishing bait you've posted here. Otherwise you need to get out more...
