Reading both this and the Girls vs Games article was a bad idea and an insult to not only every man, but every woman gamer I know. Both writers seem to be hung up on childish notions of gender roles. "Boys are lazy, sex obsessed and stupid", "Girls are superficial, unlike games most women are exactly the same, and they like to spend time in the company of their boyfriends!", "We're both bitter because we've had crap relationships with poorly chosen parteners, our expectations of the opposite sex really highlights this"
He's a suggestion for Jessica V, rather than lower yourself by spouting similarly sexist rubbish as a way of striking back against a man with the sexual maturity of a pig tail pulling seven year old, why not write about the misconceptions, the contradicitons of his article. Or maybe, just maybe, ignore it as the idiocy it is, safe in the knowledge that there are actually a large majority of men and women that don't fit these lazy cliche's.
I hope for the sake of the site that these backwards thinking, stereotype re-enforcing morons aren't actually being paid for writing such rubbish.
And yeah, it's meant to be a joke, but if I want this kind of humor I'll watch some sitcoms from the 1970's when this kind of stereotyping was fresh.
Ouch, well ain't that a kick in the nuts? You want me to be generous? I'll be generous, you want me to open the door for you? Hell, I'll do it with a smile on my face *Sigh* women. But we had it coming, its all really just fun and games, right?....Right?
Lighten up! Both articles are just jokes, not serious opinions of the opposite gender. They're using those dumb sterotypes to point out how ridiculous they are. It's called satire. I mean seriously, how many people even think that way. Answer: three, and they're all bitter and anti-social.
