Sex negative politics are regressive by their very nature and those that push for them need to be ignored and shunned.

Look at all the people celebrating Vegy being shunned acting like he was a sex trafficker. The whole idea that men should feel ashamed for being sexually attracted to a woman or should never comment on it in polite society should be kept in the dustbin of history where it belongs.

Fuck the Christian right and fuck the seg negative people on the left too.

*In before hurr durr "Same thing both sides!"

Yes the left occasionally deserves criticism and if you can't deal with that then you are an ideologue and a hack.

Lara got a reduction.
Samus got a reduction.
Tifa got a reduction.
There is a pattern here.
You can say I'm a loser, but you can't deny what is happening. It's not a conspiracy. It's not internet nerds preemptively being outraged. We said it would happen and it did. We knew it would because it's happened already. Because it's a clear and continuous pattern.
I don't care. I'm a fucking nerd. Whatever.
No, I don't need big breasts on a female character to find her interesting as a character. You don't need profanity and gratuitous bloodshed to have a good time at the movies. But if there's a PG-13 sequel or remake to an R-rated movie, people flip a table because they're being denied something they used to have. It's the same thing here.
If you go to favorite place to eat and find one day that they've stopped serving alcohol, you'd be within your rights to go someplace else even if the food is just as good as it always was.
Even if you don't care about fictional breasts (or real breasts on women playing fictional characters). Even if you're not into women period, it's still a bad thing to remove all buxom women from the media. You are saying that there is a certain type of person who you do not want to be featured in the media and it's through no fault of their own. This is like taking every story which had a Jewish character in it and replacing them with non-Jewish characters. You would be selectively removing a group of people from having any media presence or representation.
It's not just censorship. It's discrimination. How are women with large breasts supposed to feel in real life when they're not good enough to make it into movies? What does it say to them that body types and personality types are treated one and the same and that busty types are the "bimbo" types that we don't want? I suppose they can go out and get reductions if they want to be treated fairly.
Cover Tifa up more. Take away her midriff. Make it so that there's no bounce or jiggle -- just fat dead space. But don't flatten her because women with sizable breasts are somehow bad people according to the censors who think themselves progressive.

His objectifying attitude towards women (hulking sagglers) is what some people found distasteful.

Also someone else will have to clarify this but I was told he also had fake accounts to follow people on social media and post pictures of them not everyone was privy to.

Also you seem quite personally upset about this.

That's not a position anybody actually holds. It's the way that attraction is expressed that matters. The 'how', 'when', and 'where' is far more important than the 'if'. Being expected to employ some tact is not the same as being told you're bad for having an attraction.

His euphemisms for breasts could be a bit much I'll admit but acting like he was the scum of the Earth over it is a bit much (not aimed at you).

I don't think what happened to Vegy was the end of the world by any stretch of the imagination, I'm just sick of sex negative people poisoning everything.

As far as giving female characters breast reductions go I'm neutral. Don't think it.ruins games but I'm not going to act like it makes gaming more progressive either.

Literally no one thought that.

Theres nothing wrong with being attracted to women. The issue with him was the creepy baby talk and the spamming of weird humiliation fetish topics and mass-bumping them, and the overall misogynistic tone.

Theres a difference between appreciating a womans beauty and being like hurr durr I want her to breed me and call me ugly

Some people on the board are critical of Vegy, and you're acting like that's the entire board?

Also, on this particular subject it is definitely a "both sides" thing on a portion of the left and right over sexualizing something and both the left and right saying it needs to be toned down.

It isn't just the religious right not thrilled to see generous fanservice.

Take a good Ole trip over to the Sony board which definitely leans right. That board definitely has a topic every other month complaining all western woman in games are ugly, and complaining eastern games are following suit because all woman aren't scantily clad with anime ti**ies aren't super-sized and flopping all over the screen anymore... with a victim complex to boot

Honestly this really isn't a left vs right thing despite some being so insistent on making every subject in existence into a right wing vs left wing battle.

I have a big philosophical post on this brewing, but working on tests at the moment. But, yeah, really agree with this.

ITT people are insulting Vegy for having a humiliation fetish (kink shaming) or silly childish boob euphemisms, as if they've never read a porn title. As far as I care, which I don't, Vegy's titles were the GameFAQs equivalent of YouTube open-mouth click-bait. If you want to deride him for click-bait, sure, fair.

But a lot of users, including several mods, are almost explicitly saying that showing pretty women is misogynistic or sexist. But they aren't making any argument towards feminism/equality except for prudishness. And prudishness in this way IS inherently sexist. Their making a second-hand judgement on the way these women choose to present themselves.

And if those topics really bothered you, it was the easiest thing in the world to just put Vegy on ignore and never see them. He's not on the rotating list of banned alts (for now, lol). He didn't go into other topics to disrupt them. And those topics were so easily identifiable you could ignore them just by not clicking.

Pretty sure most people have thoughts that would be distasteful one way or another. The point is that theyre kept private rather than aired proudly like an early middle schooler would to impress their friends.

Also, porn objectifies women? What about gay porn? No one ever thinks about that when they play the objectification card. And whats your opinion on sex workers?

There's a difference between objectification for personal sexual gratification and creating a platform where you encourage others to objectify with you.

When you watch porn you aren't asking society to participate with you or making them privy to the fact you're watching it...normally. His threads were just basically "frat bro talk" with even less intelligence.

He's still peeved at me from the other day when he couldn't substantiate his carrying water for democrats & absolving them of their responsibility in battling Republicans harder. At this point it's just clear this person has a lot of shit takes & the more they get called out for it the harder they dig in.

For a topic talking about things no one said & assuming the stances of people they've never spoken to, he's awfully indignant about being called out.

So you haven't been to the tubesites lately, I see. The new big thing is porn reaction videos (which is mostly just some guy jerking it in an inset, or barely moving boobs), presumably as a "clever" form of copyright evasion.
