Unpopular Video Game Opinions

Im talking about being treated as such, and not just "who is showing more skin", you can find it easily, look up anything about wrestling on youtube, like top ten lists, ect. Almost anything about women will be "top ten sexiset moments", "top ten sexualized moments", "top ten hottest moments in wwe".

No one watches womens wrestling for the sport : p Its pretty much soft core porn. Its pretty sad, and not a serious thing at all.
 
In all seriousness, amount of skin=/= sexualization. You can have a non-sexualized outfits that show a lot of skin. Often, it comes to portrayal, and stuff like camera angles that pull out sexualization.

Think of stuff like how anime will have random panty and breast shots. It's like that, but often a lot more subtle in less shameless things.
 
THAT'S THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT I WANT TO HAPPEN


It's "pretty sad" that people are enjoying the entertainment provided to them? I mean, it's not a great argument!

Sad as in the men are treated as professional athletes, and the women are treated as nothing but eye candy for the men, yes.
 
"Sexualization" is subjective (I'd consider a bunch of shirtless sweaty guys bear hugging each other in the ring for the duration of a match pretty sexualizing), and considering that there's evidently an audience for it I'd consider it worthwhile.

But then, this is the unpopular opinion thread AND YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO YOUR OPINION, FOLKS
 
I don't have a problem with that sort of stuff in itself and it doesn't offend me I just wish people were less motivated by their crotches.

You can't blame humanity - evolution made us this way. Blame that Darwin guy - what a loser!
 
I honestly can't tell how serious you're being. You're very incoherent.

Even if something is "subjective" we can use numbers to gauge what something is considered to most people. If there are an overwhelming number of "sexy" videos of female wrestlers, as compared to male ones, we can reasonably deduce that male wrestlers are indeed less sexualized.

People can enjoy boobz all they wants. That female sports and physical entertainement (how do I the words) are entirely viewed through the prism of cheesecake and are viewed/not allwoed to be respectable in other ways, however, is not particularly cool

Like, I get the current culture warz is obnoxious, but criticizing the perception and treatment of womynz in medias doesn't necessarily make you a prude.

I guess this is not really an "opinion", but Am I The Only One who primarily associate Namco with its slick 3D arcade games and not its primitive 2D ones

Like when I think of Namco, I think of

-Tekken

-Ace Combat

-Ridge Racer

-Time Crisis

not Galaga and Pac-man

That proves my point - people have chosen to sexualize one gender over the other. It's not objective at all - if a majority of people make videos about how the sky is red, is the sky suddenly red?

I disagree completely... obviously, if there's an audience for something, it makes sense to appeal to that audience (especially from a financial standpoint)!
 
Tekkan and Tales of are pretty much the only games I think of when I think of Namco : p

(I love Namco for those games though : p)
 
"People" generally means the people being pandered to, not the sexualized folk. You're using the argument that just because it happens to be that a group of people said "hey this is okay" means that the people affected think it's okay.

Who are the "people affected"? The women doing said wrestling? I mean, it's not like they didn't specifically choose to take up the career of female wrestling!

Maybe in a world where the WWE grabbed chicks off the street and held them at knifepoint to do a job they didn't want to do, there'd be a problem, but female wrestlers do the same job as male wrestlers.
 
Sexualization of women idols and celebrities contributes to the overall sexualization of all women. These things do not just happen in a vacuum, they affect the views and ideas of those who consume said media.

And did these women go into wrestling because they loved having booty shots taken of them? No, they joined because they LIKED WRESTLING. The amount of training they have to go through is more than most people ever will do. If they wanted booty shots, they'd just be models or porn stars.
 
But Namco's 2D arcade games are great...! I'd even go so far as to consider them *gulp* shining examples of the medium!
