@Cypress131 @l777l Essentially, this is a case of conflicting and competing opinions. He should be free to express his, while people are free to criticize his opinion and/or behavior.

Next are considerations of power. That's where it gets more complicated. Did he abuse some power of his?

Further, does he have to take responsibility for what others are doing? One could argue that feminists abuse their power, and that those who belong to this group - however one would go about assigning them - are to some extent responsible for what the other 'members' do. Put in simple terms, perhaps the feminist chorus with its familiar refrain ('sexism everywhere') is bullying and/or oppressing heterosexual men. I'm not going to resolve that one here in either direction. It would take more space.

That being said, in my view, such conflict generally has value. And the greatest responsibility rests on those who may or may nor be swayed by someone's words.

@Cypress131 @AngelsongCA Cypress, I agree with you insofar as "bullying" and "oppressing" should not be attested without reflection. A single person, by expressing an opinion, is often not in a position to oppress.

At the same time, he did attack the person(s) responsible for this character (her design). And he extended his attack to many men in the industry. It appears he deems those who condone this character's design sexist, and misogynistic. Do you disagree with what I've outlined?

@Heshertonfist Imprecise. The sexy (fictional) woman is part of the product itself.

@green_scorpion @hector530 @Pukshd She's not that physiologically correct either. Perhaps there are different rules for fictional electronic women and fictional women in electronic games. Getting complicated. Feminist metaphysics.

@HackedLife Yeah. She's fully clothed in electronic body paint.

Finding naked women sexy is sexist now? Apparently the only politically correct behavior for men is to become homosexual.

... Feminists want to have their cake and complain about it too.

@punches4lunches @rarson @mietha In your view, is a "systematic" preference for beauty a systematic prejudice? Is a "systematic" preference for similarity, or dissimilarity?

Your stupidity should be matched with your own stupidity. Telling people to "do [their] homework" lacks about as much brilliance as is possible. Confronting you with a repetition of your stupid words does not increase their stupidity. They were maximally stupid to begin with. There's no aspiration to cleverness in reply, no need for it in this. Such utter stupidity as yours defeats itself.
