[QUOTE="Stacie GmrGrl, post: 5948815, member: 86279"] I think what's "sexy" to a person is as subjective and individual as, well, almost anything else to be honest, and that's how it should be. There is no overall standard of what is "sexy" and what is not, despite societies attempts to convince us otherwise. Maybe to some men any female gamer is sexy, simply because she is actually a gamer and is willing to talk gamer and throw dice and willing to play make believe with him... who knows. To some women, a man who can cook is sexy, simple as that. To some, the female form is boring, to others the make form is ugly. That's just how it is. And if something is sexy, doesn't always less to sexism... that's more a form of discrimination and just a lack of social graces, IMO. Can art be an influence, sure, to some... to others it's just a picture. That's how art is to me. Just a picture. I take no offense to art itself. What I take offense to are the people who willingly treat others negatively because they are inconsiderate and too opinionated to learn how to be social around others, and decide to treat a certain kind of person with disrespect and they think they are right. I don't have the same reaction to some art that others have for those similar reasons... I just like it to make sense within the context in which it's presented within the source material. To me, seeing a girl almost naked in the snow isn't so much sexist, to me... it's just dumb. But if another person says they feel it's sexist, than it is, and don't try to convince them otherwise. More specifically at Dude's comment about the cooking, I think he was trying to just express something he was told by women, and it came across as harmless to me. I don't think he was implying what you might have implied from it. Maybe he just finds female gamers who play pretend and throw dice sexy. Who knows. [/QUOTE]
