[QUOTE="mythago, post: 6206436, member: 3019"] A difference in what? Look: I'm [I]still[/I] waiting for you to explain the connection between [I]Shades of Grey[/I] and an alleged instance of a female gamer objecting to certain party members going to a whorehouse. You keep doing this "Look! A monkey!" routine where you throw out sarcastic comments and random questions that you then drop when they don't work out as you'd like. That's pretty much the definition of posting ideas rather than wanting to exchange them, by the way. Titles can't be copyrighted. I wouldn't recommend trademarking it, though, unless you really plan to use it; trademark's a pain in the butt. By 'many different things' do you mean they are different types of sexism which may require a different approach and response? Certainly. That's sort of the point of this whole thread, isn't it? To talk about the issue of sexism in tabletop games, and how that might be dealt with? Wouldn't that be a bit like me going to a gaming group and telling them that, according to you, there's nothing wrong with behaving like a perfect git at the gaming table as long as you first utter the magic words "I'm Just Roleplaying"? I mean, neither of us has said any such thing, but free speech and all that, it's not actually [I]illegal[/I] to strawman. I genuinely don't understand what you're trying to say here. If sexism isn't blatant enough or clear-cut enough by the Standards of You, then they can't possibly be game-related? That if my group enjoys playing together, sexism doesn't exist in the gaming community anywhere? I repeat: what? [/QUOTE]
