Which is hilarious, because if you're over 15 and still play video games, chances are you're never going to have any sexual relationships other than your mum walking in on you fapping to anime. Oh the irony.

That's probably the reason why they become misogynists - sour grapes and all.

There have been three rapes on the metro buses in Los Angeles this year.

Public buses.

With other passengers on these buses.

Riding through the streets of LA.

Not attempted rapes.

Three full fledged rapes.

Three.

And this has been a good year.

This is one of the stupidest and most out of touch things you've ever said.

tru dat. about two years ago i had to take a muni bus into the Mission District in San Francisco because of an emergency. it was like i was stuck in the twisted reality vortex where the world of Epic Beard Man and Kung Fu Lady all melted into one, expect that the two guys about to fight over a seat were too obese to actually fight.

Is it though? Of course it's a generalisation that fails to account for the ordinary guy who maintains healthy relationships in real life, a probable majority, but the amount of abuse female gamers are subjected to is by no means small, and although humans are known to be less polite, cordial, and restrained behind a screen, it's quite likely that a fraction of these abusive gamers - and I'd love to see if there's a study concerning this topic - is obnoxious simply because they're venting their frustration with the opposite sex/non-basement dwellers.

Is it about games, or is it about the anonymous umbrella that online communities foster? If there exists a deeply-rooted misogyny endemic to the internet, this very website most definitely suffers just the same as any idiotic XBL chatroom.

Although it's certainly true that games as an inherent form of escapism certainly encourage and breed said temperament, the same could be said and observed of sports or an interest in cars. It's not about gamers, it's about men getting together and airing their presumable sexual frustrations, wrought with the mimetic endearment of sociosexual expectation.

Wow, and that's saying something.

I am stirring it a little, but honestly computer games are just so lame. I mean even saying out loud when you're adult "I'm going to play a video game"....just so embarrassing. Not that I'm a nazi about it or anything, it's up to people if they want to waste their time playing Halo or some other lame shit, but it just seems so infantile to me. I dunno.

I thought you were kidding at first.

Trolling a teeny bit (as I know how riled up people get on the netz when you dare say anything about gayming) but actually not a lot. I don't know, I just find it so pathetic when grown men are so enthusiastic about video games.
