Are you serious? Maybe you should stop trying to speak for all women in this world, considering you are not one. And yeah, this thread is hopefully to get closed down soon. I seldom have read so much sexist and homphobic nonsense.
Shame you’re ‘out’, because I genuinely would like to know what is ‘homophobic’ about the post. As obviously Steam mods are equally triggered by the content. I believe I’ve been carefully, almost absurdly, neutral in my comments. Eg – ‘There is nothing abnormal about gayness.’ On what planet is that homophobic?
I don’t speak for women, I speak for my experience with women. Which is that they do not act like straight men or gay men when it comes to flirtation. You think otherwise? Again, it would be productive to hear a reason, otherwise we can never know what you’re trying to say here.
Why? The whole point in opening this thread is that Steam can’t tell me what’s ‘wrong’ and no one here can tell me what’s wrong.
Please point to the exact problematic sentence, and describe the issue, as I cannot see how I can be more neutral.
There’s countless stories about people/monsters hiding their true selves. Is John Carpenters the Thing really about homosexuality?
Does John Carpenter’s ‘The Thing’ try to sexually proposition you, like The Emperor? No? So it’s obviously not the greatest comparison mate.
The interpretation of fiction is not a science with a ‘right’ answer. However, I strongly believe The Emperor’s dialogue and actions suggest he’s a metaphor for gayness. I never said anything about gayness being wrong. What I said is that the handling of the material within BG3 struck me as extremely bad.
As in, there’s no suggestion The Emperor has any sexual interest in the MC up until a deeply weird scene where he randomly has his top off and wants to get it on. This is a man-octopus. To say it’s messed up would be one of the larger understatements I can think of.
PS. Women throwing themselves at men does happen. Things aren’t nearly as clear cut as the manosphere makes out.
There’s a reason promiscuous women are considered a turn off for most men. Shock horror – it implies they can’t be trusted.
You say I don’t know women – in what country do women fling themselves at every man they find attractive?
OP, for all your self-assuredness, you are deeply ignorant to how women work.
Yeah, I am in very good shape/health – I work hard at it. And I do stand out from the crowd. Not looking for a gold medal, not looking to boast. But I was out last night and getting the usual ‘attention’ from girls, which is 95% indirect: strong eye contact and coy smiles, or ‘clever’ excuses for body contact as they walk by. There was one older woman – 40s – who sought me out and was aggressively flirting. That’s the exception rather than the rule.
