Misogyny

Streamer breaks down some drama around a mobile game called Love and Deepspace. A good amount of the drama stems from homophobia from China, so that’s not why I’m sharing this here. CDawg brings up something I thought was interesting:

When women are consuming games like this men feel like they have to compete and get mad at women for playing these kinds of games (there’s an “actual” game to it, but the larger appeal is the ability to unlock more-or-less sexual scenes with various characters). He points out, referencing someone else, that men have had adult contents and other stuff for a long time and it hasn’t stopped them from having families and stuff. He feels that the view on a lot of this stuff for women is misogynistic. Mainly: guys consume this kind of content (and much “worse”) and think nothing much of it. Women consume it and their labeled as goobers who forget about the real world and will obsess over imaginary men.
