    English Is not my first language, but I agree that should be called female privilege. The same when women don’t get drafted. I think that inference you mentioned is one of the reasons people have negative thoughts about feminism, when in reality all it aims to do is get rid of the different social pressure men and women receive. The point of feminism is not to hate men, but to disentangle our society of harmful expectation, to make it more fair for both men AND women. Circling back to the clothes thing, feminism would have it for women to not be judged by women for repeating clothes, and to give another opposite example, feminism would have it for men to have an easier time entering childcare.


  • That wasn’t what I said. I’m going to give you the benefit of the doubt tho, and try to explain it. You are somehow thinking that having a privilege in a system is the privileged’s fault, when in reality they are too a victim of the same system. Of course men aren’t at fault here in this situation, but they still have privilege in it. In this scenario that means men don’t have to worry about repeated usage of clothes the way women do, so they are in a favoured position, they are privileged. This is what it means. No one here is saying that men are the culprit of this system, rather that men don’t experience the same social pressure when it comes to clothes.
















  • You keep referencing the community as if I wasn’t aware. I made a comment yesterday here in this very thread referencing it, so I clearly know this is a place for unpopular opinions, that’s why I’m debating in good faith and that’s why I said in my previous comment it was ironic.
    But no, please re-read what I said, that you started the post with an assumption, and you presented it as fact. That’s not debatable, you stated that games aren’t supposed to be realistic. You didn’t back that up with an argument, you just repeated how you think games should be perceived and then proceeded to trash a popular franchise as an example.
    Like I said, I mean no animosity towards you. But I chimed in literally because this community invites to debate
