    But out of nowhere it seems like women care so much now about what guys are doing in games or comics

    true but girls was always gaming. they only played kiddie ? like super Mario or Kirby though.

    Qhere the dollars go is what concerned these consummer driven / simp leeches women.

    They dont want you to spend their starbucks, dinner, drinks on video games. They dont want to get ignored for a month because GTA 6 is on.

    Thats why they will try to shame and sabotage the evergrowing gaming industry.

    The era of super simps is over. Right here right now im telling that woman that i ll probably spend our saturday date money into SHADOW OF WAR without any shame. Because if i do the math that game will give a month woth of pleasure while her ? is only an hour worth of pleasure.

    Unless she pays i reaĺly think that she will have to find another ?

    Women due for a market correction sooner or later after more men realize they don’t really contribute much anything outside of nags and good looks.

    Look around you bruh, look closely : men have built a whole consumerist society AROUND AND FOR WOMEN. You can call it SIMPATIST STATES OF AMERICA. You live in simp oriented world where you ve been wored and, if you try to think otherwise, PEER PRESSURED to do errtang for women.

    Here are the catch phrases:
    - big cars attracts women
    - big money attracts women
    - big houses attracts women
    - big and far away vacations
    - big spending in big malls
    - big watches, big wardrobe
    - big baller this big baller that

    For who ? WOMEN. What can they offer ?

    -their fast and furious fading beauty especially in our obese societies
    - MAYBE THEIR ? / MOUTH/ ?

    DO THE ? MATH!!!

    Do you think that they want it to change, aside idiots feminazies? NO. But its too late. They got tooo greedy with alimony, child support and men spaces colonization, even comics smh.

    They have forced us to look deeep into the secret foundation of society and men women interraction. And now more and more men are saying :

    You know what super woman, go to work, pay the bills, drinks, pay for restaurant, hotel rooms, vacations. Hand me my PS 4 controller please.

    This is the end of free ride. Some women are made for this but imo most dont. They are feeling the pain of having to work that dollar and take a shower, making up and count their money to buy drinks, pay half the restaurant bill and half the taxy. ? i make them pay for condoms.

    For all the bad, agressive feminism has freed us.

    People think everybody should do everything. Sometimes people just ain't interested!

    Women and girls buy and or read comics and such that is women friendly... Even though we make up a significant portion of the market very little is catered towards us which is a part of the problem

    And at the end of the day we live in a capitalist society

    The ultimate goal is to expend ur market to make more money

    That means making comics more accessible to minorities including women, poc and ? now that they have more buying power

    Comics, and video games to a lesser extent, also have a long history of racist caricature that the industry is now grapling with

    There are more blk super heroes

    And recently batman confronts police racism in latest comic book so you have a problem with that?

    Should the industry not be held responsible for the misogyny and racism they perpetuate

    Should the industry not feel as though they have a social responsibility to address these things? Or rather why do yall have such a big problem with it

    *shrugs*

    Before anyone starts most popular female spaces and publications do not perpetuate the same contempt for anything other and objectification of the opposite sex at all. most of them is centered around what women can do to keep a man, i.e. lose weight, tone, makeup, head manuals etc

    Your problem is that you're making something that's not political -- political!

    Watch whatever you want, read whatever you want nobody gives a ? .

    People give a ? when you decide to change what they want into some ? you want.

    Nobody wants to be preached to or lambasted for liking something. Move on. Take all that nagging ? somewhere else, ? was having fun over here.

    If you really liked something, you wouldn't go out of your way to change it. It's that type of thinking that is ruining fun ventures.

    All this policing of the imagination, telling people what they can and can't fantasize about or buy with their money... ? is arrogant as ? .

    Everything ain't about you and your politics.

    Get the ? on!

    Females dont make up a significant percentage of the comic industry market.

    The sales nose dive in marvel and smaller indie companies like idw image prove that.

    Females make up about 4% of the market. The propaganda that females make up 40% is one of the biggest lies that has backfired.

    Marvel flagship titles and characters are selling at levels that would have gotten books cancelled 20 years ago.

    Captain marvel
    Squirrel girl
    Wasp
    Fem thor
    Cuck spiderman

    None of these titles sell. These are books that cater to females, or rather feminist interests. And they can't sell over 25k.

    Females dont read comics. Females like to cosplay. They like to play dress up and go to cons, or post pictures on the internet to elicit donations.

    This falls in line with typical female behavior.

    The black superheroes are lame af.

    They put Blade in a Cosby sweater and turned him into a substitute teacher

    They turned Luke cage from a bad ass to some poorly written clown

    Race swapped mild morales and riri Williams as cosplay iron man is dumb.

    The falcon being handed captain America when he had his own established character

    All of this smacks of ok patronizing, and liberal white racists who are frightened of black people so they write these flat characters with no depth.

    Comics are accessible to people.

    Mile high comics was a company that promoted tons of black characters. Original black characters. But black people didn't support it.

    Women have always been in comics as characters, writers, editors, main characters

    Switching a character to being ? after an established history of the being straight is not making it accessible.

    All you have to do is look at the covers to romance novels to see that the ideation that females don't objectify men is compete and utter trash.

    I ain't gonna post covers here because that would be sus af.

    Comparing magazines to comic books is a blatant false equivalence and ? me off that you're such a ? you think we'd be stupid enough to not notice.

    There are tons of men's publications geared towards weight loss fashion being attractive to women etc etc. That is the 1:1 comparison not comparing a volume of Cosmo to an issue of Batman.

    You ? clown.

    get out your feelings

    comics, video games are inherently political because there is no real distinction between politics and stories about the world .... american superhero comics like super man and xmen for instance were political from their earliest days

    in the 40s superman was a champion for the oppressed fighting wealthy industrialists and crooked politicians

    and it's not about changing what makes comic books and video games video games and comic books... like i said its about practicing social responsibility and expanding the market

    again comics and video games aren't just becoming more woman friendly, the industry has made a concerted effort to reach out to poc....even the disabled more than they have done in the past

    is that bad? lol

    this idea that its about women nagging and wanting to ruin male spaces is your male privilege talking

    receipts?

    otherwise from what i read more than a quarter of video gamers and computer gamers are women int he untied states

    https://www.statista.com/statistics/232383/gender-split-of-us-computer-and-video-gamers/


    as far as with comics there isn't a lot of market research

    according to facebook 24 million US comic book fans and yet the best selling books barely sell 100k at best. more than 40% identify as being female. so really no conclusive arguments can be made other than these ppl are potential customers given the right material and marketing

    https://graphicpolicy.com/2014/02/01/facebook-fandom-spotlight-who-are-the-us-comic-fans-5/

    https://graphicpolicy.com/2013/09/02/facebook-fandom-spotlight-fans-of-female-comic-characters/


    also female comic book character fans are largely female. no surpirse ppl like things they can relate too. that said, just because the wasp isn't selling doesn't mean women and girls don't read comics. it could mean the stories and characters could just be bad

    and i'm not sure how any of this could be used to make the case promoting and celebrating diversity is not a worthy cause

    And at the end of the day we live in a capitalist society

    The ultimate goal is to expend ur market to make more money

    That means making comics more accessible to minorities including women, poc and ? now that they have more buying power

    Comics, and video games to a lesser extent, also have a long history of racist caricature that the industry is now grapling with

    There are more blk super heroes

    And recently batman confronts police racism in latest comic book so you have a problem with that?

    Should the industry not be held responsible for the misogyny and racism they perpetuate

    Should the industry not feel as though they have a social responsibility to address these things? Or rather why do yall have such a big problem with it

    *shrugs*

    Before anyone starts most popular female spaces and publications do not perpetuate the same contempt for anything other and objectification of the opposite sex at all. most of them is centered around what women can do to keep a man, i.e. lose weight, tone, makeup, head manuals etc

    Your problem is that you're making something that's not political -- political!

    Watch whatever you want, read whatever you want nobody gives a ? .

    People give a ? when you decide to change what they want into some ? you want.

    Nobody wants to be preached to or lambasted for liking something. Move on. Take all that nagging ? somewhere else, ? was having fun over here.

    If you really liked something, you wouldn't go out of your way to change it. It's that type of thinking that is ruining fun ventures.

    All this policing of the imagination, telling people what they can and can't fantasize about or buy with their money... ? is arrogant as ? .

    Everything ain't about you and your politics.

    Get the ? on!

    get out your feelings

    comics, video games are inherently political because there is no real distinction between politics and stories about the world .... american superhero comics like super man and xmen for instance were political from their earliest days

    in the 40s superman was a champion for the oppressed fighting wealthy industrialists and crooked politicians

    and it's not about changing what makes comic books and video games video games and comic books... like i said its about practicing social responsibility and expanding the market

    again comics and video games aren't just becoming more woman friendly, the industry has made a concerted effort to reach out to poc....even the disabled more than they have done in the past

    is that bad? lol

    this idea that its about women nagging and wanting to ruin male spaces is your male privilege talking

    The industry was never anti-woman, you can't find a single thing that ever said women weren't welcome.

    Female writers and editors going back 30 years
    Female characters going back 60-70 years where is this ? you talking about?

    @Madame_CJSkywalker this is another example of aggressive feminism.

    They could march and ask for new ? cahracters for example.
    What is idiotic is demanding that the already existing cahracters change gender and sexual orientation.

    That's the crazy thing to me. So much of this ? is fake. I grew up under the impression that ? who read comics, play video games etc were nerds who got no ? and were actively shunned by outsiders.

    A movie like the 40 Year Old ? encapsulated this idea. What was the first thing his friends did when they tried to get him some ? ? They wanted to get rid of all his collectibles and nerd stuff because it was ? repellent.

    For years this was true:

    But out of nowhere it seems like women care so much now about what guys are doing in games or comics

    true but girls was always gaming. they only played kiddie ? like super Mario or Kirby though.

    That's what folks dont get.

    Women read comics and manga too but it ain't the same ? men read.

    lol

    in video games and comics?

    the humor

    they way women are drawn and dressed.... the overt sexualization

    the tendency to turn women into expendable plot accessories to further the hero’s arc opposed to 3 dimensional characters

    same as for most mediums, male characters are given the overwhelming majority of the speaking lines

    we have video games where you can only play male characters who have the ability to pick up and ? female prostitutes

    wasn't a big, big comic book reader growing up but that was because of the aforementioned and my parents wasn't with it and all the violence
