    are they really upset that sex sells? do they even know what industry they work in? like seriously, nearly ever female video game character wear almost no clothes.

    also, i doubt anyone stopped them from bringing there own half naked male dancers, but not only do women not really go to those kinds of affects, naked men isn't the type of ? that intrigues us.

    men like scantily clad women, how is that sexist?

    I don't think it's the problem, but men like to go overboard with everything and especially when you are at these kinds of events. I believe what she is doing is that there is more to being a woman than just being sexy, which is obvious. Sex sells but I can watch Game of Thrones, Spartacus, etc good ass shows and good ass video games without the sexy images and truly enjoy them. But I guess for some people that its not enough.

    I dont deny sexism is real and there needs to be something done about it. HOWEVER, the majority of sexist complaints from females are like this one: ? and Unfounded in truth.

    Can you give us specific examples of sexism at these conventions or how exactly people go overboard because I have not been. All I know is this particular complaint is bulllshit. So could you give some examples?

    A good example is how we look at porn and how it enters our minds and slowly becoming what we think of women. We tend to forget without women there is no human race and they should be treated with respect and likewise women have to understand without men there is no human race. Sexuality shouldn't be punished but when its obvious that there are a lot of men who see women dressed sexually they tend to treat them like they are beneath them. It's the same way how we white people view blacks in hip hop like they are underneath them and only for a market that's why the blew up when common went in the white house despite what he raps about.

    I think we need to make some rules( not laws) on how we deal with sexuality and in a respectful manner. It goes both ways.

    There's a lot of crazy ? in what you just posted but are you saying there should be an effort to make men not want to have sex with women ?

    Wonder if her actions are going to compel the objectified women to stop objectifying themselves.

    Where it all starts. These women need to stop putting themselves in the position to be objectified. They want to have it both ways.

    Seriously, what makes you think I dislike or hate being black? I absolutely love being black and proud of my African heritage. I'm not proud of you dummies who soak up European culture and don't even know it and call it black culture when eve though Africans don't even practice that ? over there. No tribe goes that crazy with the misogynistic, misandristic, destructive, self asborbed, anti-education, anti-family and etc before Europeans arrive.

    And I'm the one who is Eurocentric, read a book.

    The funny ? is that none of those broads were forced to do anything. That's why I call ? . Some women get all offended by it and attack the company promoting. Stupid broad, go talk to the females out there choosing to do that line of work if you want to make a difference.

    There's a position for everybody in this world. Mind your own position.
