The problem is that people will say things, and then she'll say it was misogynist because of meaning she attributes to what was said. The speaker determines their meaning, not the listener.
'Cuz she's not. Some are. She isn't.
And I don't think that everyone's a misogynist. Some people insensitive? Ignorant? Mistaken? A hat trick of yes! But, by my count, misogyny takes an active intent. A looking at a person that identifies as female and feeling an invocation of negative feelings. And most people here don't do that. Not by a long shot. Realms of reasonableness, dear hearts. The first step of the last step of a debate is errant summation and assumption. |

Fair enough. Edit: And I'm sure Bella would disagree with me if she read this, but it's how I feel. There are some people with whom I am not content in their views, but I don't think they're misogynists. I've met real ones. Like, someone who has spent the past five years arguing that women are nothing but toys for his one night stands and that all women will bear the brunt of his disrespect until he reaches closure the girlfriend that dumped him. He explicitly states this. That's misogyny.

"I don't think that it's a problem that game developers under represent women as protagonists" isn't an active goal. It's passive. It's a dangerous apathy with which I strongly disagree, but I don't think it's misogyny. Just... incorrect.
By the way, you aren't on Skype. I have director's commentary on this conversation, but you need Skype to hear it.

Side note: I'm pretty sure Finn Hudson isn't going to end up with Rachel Berry or Quinn Febray. He's going to propose to the auto-tuner. If he had any loyalty, they'd be married tomorrow.
I think the answer here is simpe. Ki Goden Gir.
Odd, I thought any director's commentary on this thread would be found on ChatRoulette, not Skype.

I was giving an example of the typical things said on DVD comemntaries - it shouldn't be assumed that that's my opinion

I don't think many people do - it's nicer to give a personal response to each post

I miss the quote pyramids from The 3rd Age.

You can do that with mutiquote.
