Unlike the classic game, women will collect 240 Monopoly bucks when they pass "go," while male players will collect the usual 200. It's "a fun new take on the game that creates a world where women have an advantage often enjoyed by men," the creators said.

This'll just make them feel like they're too dumb to win the game without advantages.

Way to make them feel pathetic.

To offset the new 'Go' reward for women, Reginald Parker -- one of the famous Parker Brothers -- was quoted as saying, "Don't worry, snowflakes, we give you $60 for your beauty contest finishes now."

On average, western women between ages 21-35 are already earning more than their male counterparts....

Anyone who continues to push the "wage gap" myth has not done any recent reputable research at all. Both people on the right AND left are now showing concern about young men not making as much as before (although the far left only cares about how it impacts women as far as looking for marriage partners).

The point is economical equality of opportunity between the genders in the west has basically been achieved for the majority.

Tbh this strikes me as an alt right point more than a left wing point.

Like a "Liberals say they want equality, but they'll just give more money to women! Isn't that unfair?!" thing.

Either way, it's weird that Monopoly has been so...political lately.

Nothing says women empowerment like giving them a handicap.

But one awesome thing about monopoly is house rules. I never played by strict game rules anyway. You know landing on Go gives 500 instead of 200 you get for passing or all fines go to the pot that you get on free parking.

Still I dont think many men, especially boys, would play a game with Ms in the title anyway. It seems a game targeted to girls so whats even the point? I guess if your little sister wants you to play with her but youd probably have given her a handicap anyway...

Did the game Monopoly somehow used to give advantages to men over women in the game? Thats actually a sexist game tbh

Playing by the rules actually makes the game playable.

The reason monopoly games take so long is house rules, like free parking money. Without stuff like that, one player should get ahead fairly early and crush everyone else, which is what's supposed to happen.

Your using handicap the opposite of what it means. The game handicaps men, they're at a disadvantage. You would give yourself a handicap to help your little sister.
