Don't you know what a he/him lesbian is?

Unless you've installed some very particular mods, the body types in most video games do not contain genitals, and therefore are not definitively male nor female.

I have boobs and a butt. My body looks like "Body B" from these games. It is not a female body. It does not have a vagina. I have a surgery planned, and that surgery will not result in a vagina. What I'm hearing right now is that you think my body is female. And that makes me feel uncomfortable because I do not want a female body. A feminine body, I am happy with, but not female. I choose "Body B" in these games because it looks like my body, which I am happy with. I do not choose it because it's "female". I feel a little bit of pain every time I have to click on female.

OP simply doesn't believe in gender nonconforming people and thinks we're all alt-right trolls. It's a very privileged take.

What if you're a dummy thicc femboy with boyboobs?

You might think this identity is just a meme, but it's not. And while some percentage of that is queer people secure in their identities, some of it is also questioning trans girls who aren't comfortable selecting "female" yet but will try out exploring femininity through the "femboy" meme.

As an enby, I'll pick body B most of the time, but I don't like being called female. I'll put up with it in an old game, but if a studio decides to not misgender me, I'm nothing but happy. I agree 100% that more options would be nice. But assuming that game companies aren't going to spend money on artists to make diverse bodies, why yuck the yum I experience when a game at least tries to not misgender me?

You'd like Doctor Stone.

Senku is an incredibly smart high schooler who wants to be an astronaut like his dad. Instead, every human being on earth is turned to stone in a flash of mysterious green light. Six thousand years later, Senku's body breaks out of the stone. He's all alone in a world with no people, no technology, and no society. Fortunately, Senku has the power of science on his side. He vows to sprint up the technology tree and accomplish in his own lifetime what took humanity 10,000 years the first time around. He still wants to go to space.

Episode 1 has a rape scene.

Article requires an email address to read. Shit journalism.

See also Americans dismissing molten salt reactors because traditional nuclear blew up

Molten salt reactors cannot explode. When the fluid heats up, it expands. When it expands, the particles are further apart and react less. It's self correcting. And even if by a miracle the fluid didn't expand, there's a plug that melts and drains all the molten salt into a safety system where it's channeled far away from the rest of the mass and cannot react. And in fact, even if you look at the safety data on traditional nuclear, it's actually less dangerous per watt generated than solar energy. Because solar technicians sometimes fall off roofs and get injured. Nuclear causes less injury and death than people falling off roofs.

Liberalism is capitalist. Neoliberalism especially so. Capitalism is associated with various problems like homelessness, commodified relationships and hobbies, price gouging, poor healthcare, and systemic discrimination. Also over time liberalism leads to fascism as capitalism breaks down, poverty increases, and people become radicalised. A society which permits the accumulation of wealth and the use of wealth to gain wealth, will inevitably form oligopolies, monopolies, oligarchies, and eventually monogarchy. This is anti-democracy and anti-human.

You should check out leftism and see if you like it better than liberalism. This comment is not about voting, I just don't like liberalism.

This is why I like Go better.

Are you saying gay marriage defiles the concept?

Yeah but why would you want real meat? That's gross.

What makes you think humanity has a natural state?

So you were impatient.

Keep in mind that if you base your judgements of left bias and right bias on the American overton window, that window has been highly influenced by fascism over the last 10 years, and now your judgement is based on the normalisation of fascism, which your bot is implicitly accepting. That's bad. If you're going to characterise sources as left or right in any form, you need to pick a point that you personally define as center. And now your judgements are all going to implicitly push people towards that point. You could say that Karl Marx is the center of the political spectrum, or you could say Mussolini is. Both of those statements are equally valid, and they are as valid as what you are doing now. If you don't want to push any set of biases, you need to stop calling sources left and right altogether.

Someone else in this thread said to link to media literacy resources and I agree with them.

TERFism restricts feminism to a tightly defined and controlled ingroup. The criteria for determining who is a real woman, when employed by bigots, will inevitably come to describe the socially dominant form of femininity, which is white femininity. Black and Arab women like Khelif will always fail to pass the standards of white femininity, because they're not white. The standards are racist. And TERFs invariably pick racist standards, because the kind of people who feel the need to police womanhood to appeal to an imagined ideal are people who will end up doing that in more ways than one. And also, TERFs are always hanging out and allying with overly white supremacist groups, because Nazis are the only people who will put up with assholes like Rowling. That's why she's always taking photos with fascists.

For Honour. It's a competitive sword fighting game. You'll like the combat system. She'll like devising a strategy on how best to lead the creeps to overrun the enemy castle.

Or maybe you'll prefer Foxhole, a persistent trench warfare simulation game where players manufacture every bullet and build every fortification. It's not as fast paced as Overwatch, but I bet she'll like digging a trench for you to use for cover as you nail fools and slowly take ground from the enemy.

And then I'll grow yer arse's arse and I'm the grass man, punk yeah heaven's heathen...
