The Creepy Cull of the Female Protagonist.

PREACH!

I’m starting to really really like this guy’s videos. 

raving-rachael:

What if all the Disney princes and princesses were gay? And then, what if they all sang mash-ups of Disney songs and pop-hits, and did choreographed dancing to those mash-ups? Would you like to see that?

Well, your wish has been granted.

And, +10 points to the creators for including a Mean Girls reference.

Viewer calls TV anchor fat.

TV anchor responds.

This lady is my hero.

she looks lovely too!

I want to hug her.

Bless her and the nice people in this world.  EVERY PERSON WATCH THIS!

Please please please watch this till the end

bless this women.

HOW DID SHE GET THROUGH THIS WITHOUT CHOKING UP.  This woman is my new hero.

Wow.

If you do nothing else today, at least watch this.

Started crying watching this. So moving.

what she said about the whole passing on the behavior from parent to child is so true.  i am in no way overweight,  i do not believe it myself nor would it say so on a doctors chart however my father insists on pointing out every single thing i eat. when my brother ordered a foot long at subway i wanted one too because i like to save half of it for the next day.  my brother got his sandwich and while i got mine too…i got an “oink oink” with it. and then my brothers wouldn’t stop teasing me over ordering an extra six fucking inches of sandwich to save for the next day for lunch.  why anyone of them believe they have the right to comment on my weight i will never know

i made a short video about the actual problem for women who like video games

ah but then we get the problem of hypersexualized, bikini-armor wearing, porcelain-doll-faced ladies grabbing every opportunity to fling their butt or gargantuan breasts on screen

and by “they”, I really mean the game developers forcing the ladies to do that

But sometimes we also get characters like GLaDOS and Chell from Portal. Creativity and good writing are possible, you just have to stand up and put your foot down and demand it. And this is a good start!

The comments on this video make me sick.

‘People like you are exactly what is wrong with the perceived influx of new female gamers. You don’t know anything about the medium and expect the industry to pander to you.’

‘I don’t know if you checked, but there are many female leads and 99% of games are not sexist (not matter what your gender crusaders will want you to think) by any stretch of imagination.’

‘P.S. I demand more gay Ugandan cat-loving, tall, blond-haired, well-dressed characters in video games - doesn’t mean any developer should (let alone have to) cater to my on-spot-made-up sensibilities.’

All these colors were achieved with red, yellow, blue, and green food coloring mixed into white frosting. The amount of drops needed for the color you want is underneath the icing color. So convenient. :)

I love Mint Chip = 3 blue, 3 green
