Has it not occurred to this gamer dad that his little girls may be picking male avatars for similar reasons?


Out of the dozen or so chicks I've seen pick characters in games, it's always been the most cutesy/girly character like Kirby/Peach, or the hottest stripper slut with the biggest tits. The two furthest choices for empowerment and anti-objectification.

So faggot hipster glasses dad is still wrong, just for different reasons.


While we're on the subject, can "sexualizing" and "objectifying" please be fucking dismissed as valid concerns once and for all? Especially when you're talking about fucking fictional characters? It's cheap harmless gratification for men. Get over it. Women have this shit with their cheap fiction in form of reducing male characters into nothing but a vessel for doting on the protagonist, doing them favors and all the heavy lifting. Servants essentially. Can you imagine a bunch of men getting together to whine about "commodifying" men in fiction stories?
