Matt Chatt - Brenda Romero Interview #4
 

Matt continues his interview with Brenda Romero this time talking about sexism in the Gaming Industry. This should be the last part of his interview.



More information.

I generally agree with Brenda on her view regarding women and marketing and have always found it just plain cheesy and degrading to women.

But her argument leaves out responsibilities of those women who choose to be used in such a way. Until women get on the same page and choose to turn down money in exchange for objectifying themselves I don't think there's a whole lot gamers can do about it to influence things one way or another.

I'd argue that, with the era of the internet and explosion of audio and video… women are lining up more than ever before to objectify themselves for money.

Now, GET OFF MY LAWN!

I blame shady marketing. Example: Dragon Age II. That and masturbating men.

was that wrong? Should I not have done that?

Bit of this, you reckon? http://youtu.be/LfeeJkF3Zjg?t=1m20s

Alright stop it with the jokes no matter how funny they are, and get back on topic. If it keeps up I will move or delete them. I will also lock this thread if I have to.:disappointed:

Update: Thank you TheMadGamer for being the only one to post an on-topic reply.;)

I would have paid more attention if she showed her tits…

hahahah :D

Gotta wonder though, what the hell did i just watch. :)

awesome

I mentioned it more as a general fact than problem. On a more serious note, to preserve the thread, this adolescence view of women has been with gaming for a long time. I think it's mostly a marketing thing from UK and US.
