You know what the problem with these threads are? They reach a point where all the normal people are like "yeah, I don't want any part of that shit" move on and it leaves just crazy idiots to spout their nonsense unabated while occasionally a moron who doesn't know when to quit (like me) tries to explain to them why they're wrong but the crazy is just too much to overpower and it ends up just becoming even more of an embarrassing mess than it already was.

I'll leave with one final thing to see. Maybe check out this Twitter account for the perspective an actual, honest to god woman and their views on this. Maybe it will be enlightening, maybe not, I don't know. But with that, bye. Have fun. Be safe.

"My self righteous opinion isn't getting through to these vile, opposing opinions! I'll just chip in with my "special snowflake" monologue, call people crazy, and run off thinking I'm the hero Giantbomb deserves."

@Ehker: "4chan frequently posts child porn"

They what now?

Sorry if you didn't know. When someone compares us to 4chan I'll point that out. Yeah, we're better than them.

I can't help but laugh. People still look at 4chan as just one big, vile entity that just contains the /b/ random board? And even then, that place is policed and moderated quite stringently in regards to illegal content. I myself go on other boards. Due to the anonymous nature of things, anyone can post anything but it won't last long if it's rule breaking.

@krabboss: That's pretty sexist to stereotype me as some sort of "bro". I'm giving you genuine advice! 
 
Do you look at a mug that says "World's Greatest Dad" and faint?

@krabboss: I think you'd better fit in with Jezebel. It'll be your own personal echo chamber! Checking of privileges aplenty!

Oh hey look, it's another thread full of men who have no understanding of sexism and male privilege. What a shocker, this is surely not at all common.

Good job on being a decent human being, Patrick.

Be careful. That word "privilege" sets them off something fierce.

It's just really dumb, and I'll likely be one of the few to even give that comment the dignity of a response.
 
By the way, uploading an image and giving thanks didn't "set" me off. This comment feed is never ending amusement.
 
Did you check your privilege? What's your score?

I honestly don't see a problem with. In context, the statue makes complete sense. Out of context, however, I can see why people would be offended. That being said, I think a lot of people are reading too much into this.

"Reading too much into it" garnered this article 600+ comments. 
 
dem clicks, man

@Milkman:

you think it is sexist for a woman to wear a bikini?

Yep.

@PulledaBrad: You have no idea what you're talking about. Women are treated differently in society than men. It's a fact. Different treatment is applied to women every day, which is entirely why this exists. You ask "well, what if this was a male torso?", well the answer is that it wouldn't exist it all. Because the only reason it exists is because "boobs." That's the problem here. Get it?

You're missing the point. Why are you more outraged at there being boobs than there being a limbless, decapitated body made to put on display?

BECAUSE IT'S A WOMAN!!!!!!

Also I'll make sure I'll never laugh at Vinny beating the hell out of women in Sleeping Dogs.

So hey Gianbomb, you gonna stop showcasing games with sexuality in it right? We gotta take things to the next level. We must detoxify and live in a Giantbubble...... You guys do care right? Vag-power right?......right?

What? You gotta keep making money you say????

Don't be silly. We only make stands when it's OTHER people's money at risk.

Hey patrick. Quote that.... No?

What the hell are you idiots even talking about?

Your anger is showing.

Yeah, I was able to follow those comments just fine. Pot and kettle, etcetera.
