gaming is a f****** mess and why is it so hard to love gaming comunity and my place in it
Hi i'm new here and this is my first thread and its not gonna be pretty. One the things i have noticed that gaming has become quite unpleasant place say a least. Many prominant figures have left the indestry because of harassment, many elitists hate new comers, conservatives use it to push their own agendas (milo), homophobia is almost everywhere Example many times in games gay characters are the punchline (har har that character is havin sex with the other guy lol), transphobia is runing alltime high (not suprising because they are getting killed this very moment), and finally there is sexism oh that can of worms i'm not gonna open. Basically comunity in general is awful it is getting better although very slowly. Gaming is going through growing pains and its new found responsibilities are hard to handle because its considered art now and deals with criticism it never dealt before atleast not same extense it is now. this is why i feel conflicted about my place In gaming comunity. Am i welcome in it because i don't fit in binary gender even though i played games sense i was five or am i invader of elite 12 year old space?
(Sorry for bad grammar i'm using phone plus English is not my first language.)
Comments
Where is there transphobia? I personally don't know of any games that even comment on transgender people.
If you mean the community itself being transphobic, it's like any other place. Some people are more open and accepting, and others are more judgmental and close-minded. It's the exact same on this forum too.
Gta 5 for example has bald trans prostitutes how has huge balls
Why do I see the male version of Anita Sarkeesian on this thread?
You might get along great with some people here.

That escalated quickly.
So, only a few comments in and you decide to get yourself banned.
Unlikely i'm a feminist. Mens nightmare. Crusher of dreams and put men friendzone on daily basis. (Thats a lie i'm ugly as hell)
Oh trust me, there are people like that here, unless you get go around insulting people like above for zero reason then you might get to know them.

Alright, so, tell me all about your feelings of gaming. Give actual reason and proof please, I would love to debate.
I don't like being callled man he started misgendering me si had a reason
Maybe you should have stated that, this is the Internet, we're not psychic sir.
You know nothing of feminism goldenpladin
Come on man, there's no reason to be rude about it.
Don't miss gender me i deal with enough in irl
What? People mistake you for a man in real life?
I don't like debates nothing but waste of time i like just non serious pissing contests
This will probably be that. I can't see either of us actually having a serious conversation.
And sorry haven't slept at all last night. You misgendered me and i got pissed

Wasn't me.
Well, I'm a man. I don't need all these special terms, I'm just a man,

What does that has to do with gender identity. I doubt you are even adult

Oh, I just thought you might have been there once or twice. It's a place where everyone is accepted, no matter what you are. Hell, I'm a wolf, I'm accepted there.

Thanks, was running on empty.

Mind if I grab some.
Why do I get the feeling this is turning into a release date forum?
...Sorry, inside joke for the older people on the forum. XD

Yep.
My apologizes then, but please calm the fuck down. People like you and Anita Sarkeesian make all feminists look really bad.
Brother, don't even worry about this.
