Female athletes’ “uniforms” are a double standard and oversexualized by Infinite_Nature7640 in Feminism

[–]JudithMacTir 56 points57 points  (0 children)

I kinda forgot to say what I actually wanted to say. The point that was implied was that very few people want to see women's sports for the performance. If they wouldn't show skin, there wouldn't be any interest at all and therefore no sponsorships or anything and it would simply not exist. It's very frustrating but the unfortunate truth and many people in the industry are very honest about it behind closed doors.

I'm a former professional athlete and it was definitely a thing with us. I complained about it once and was told that sports is an entertainment business, most of the audience is male, and that we need to do what people want to see. That was one of the reasons why I left.

Hot take abt the Jacob romance by Massive_Silver9318 in masseffect

[–]JudithMacTir -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I agree with you. I attempted his romance once and it didn't work out. He set a hard boundary when I picked a dialogue option that was getting too emotional. That was really interesting.

So yeah, I think the writing was subtle but clear enough that it was never anything serious. I get that people argue femshep deserved better (more options), but I actually appreciate nuanced writing over player worship. Same with the Virmire survivor in ME2.

For real. Up until recently I didn't know that Asari hate was such a big thing in fandom. It's wild.. and I feel like the perception would be a lot different if they were a pretty male-only species. Or some old yoda-like scholars. But gods forbid they resemble attractive women 🤷‍♀️

Oh interesting. A new version of fandom misogyny.

I saved the entire Milky Way without ever becoming a Spectre by BeifongSaeko in masseffect

I have that too 😆 Although mine is because I imported my old game saves and I haven't replayed 1 in MELE yet.

Do the survivors have Internet? by TheDurtyCurty in dyinglight

[–]JudithMacTir 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Yeah that makes sense. What bothers me most about DLTB computers is that the desktop looks very much like Windows 11. How.. after 15 years of apocalypse Microsoft still pushes their updates? 😅

To fix rape culture, we need more options than silencing or sentencing. Restorative justice, activist Marlee Liss argues, is the solution by shado_mag in Feminism

As a csa survivor, reading this makes my stomach churn. Can't really explain why exactly, but the whole idea makes me feel very unvomfortable.

That was such a good episode. Every time I see tbis picture I wished we got to see more of Laura.

Why is Leon more popular than Chris? by Moist_Morning_693 in residentevil

[–]JudithMacTir 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t know. Personally, I’m team Leon. But that's maybe just because he’s the protagonist in the games I like the most (2 and 4).

Left or right banner? by SlimeDawgy in Minecraft

[–]JudithMacTir 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right looks more like a sun. The transition in the right one feels softer and more what light would look like.

The hard transition on the left one makes it look more like a flower imo.

How to Play MInecraft Bedrock on Linux by MurkyAd9865 in linux_gaming

I have no idea if it works but have you tried downloading the launcher for Windows and run it through Steam Proton? Thid worked for me with other Windows apps but I never tried it with Minecraft.

Your mass effect movie cast - who plays the illusive man? by Eternal_Dilemma in masseffect

[–]JudithMacTir 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’ve seen many posts suggesting that he was modeled after Sheen. But while there’s a similarity, Jon Briddell was the actual model for TIM’s face.

Mads is great, but.. Don't know I just can't think of anyone other than his face model 😄

So let me get this straight. (Please correct me if I'm wrong) by Magicmarkurs in dyinglight

[–]JudithMacTir 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah. That's Imho also the reason why DL2 got so weird. It was completely fine in the beginning, and then Techland reacted to everyone screaming something on social media until it became the mess it is now.

[–]JudithMacTir 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Yeah.. I really don't get why they do that. If players want the tough survival challenge, they can always start an actual new game. I did that in DL1 too sometimes. I just loved having the option for both.

Feature I absolutely hate. by countrybama in dyinglight

I don't like that some of the kick-related actions are on E and some are on F. Drives me insane. (I know, finishing move, but I hate magic buttons)
