So if a ****** happens to eat a sandwich at some point prior to trooning out, that means eating a sandwich is "gay"?. Honestly, games like Tomb Raider were released in the mid 90s, long before ****** started being commonplace in the 2010s. We've had games like Dead or Alive, King of Fighters, Street Fighter, Metroid, where the female leads are attractive and appealing to male players. Those players didn't go on to cut their genitalia and wear dresses.

There are so many other, more significant reasons why young men decide to ***** out. Even estrogenic chemicals in most laundry detergents are more to blame than "hot female character with large breasts".
no, but if a kid plays with barbie dolls they are probably way more likely to be a *** than the kid playing with action figures. Socialization and the media we consume is a big factor in every persons life, especially when at ages where the brain is still developing.

But here's the difference: Barbie dolls are intentionally marketed towards little girls. They feature little girls in all commercials, perhaps even on the box too. They feature bright pink and other garish, feminine colours. They are obviously not intended to be used by boys. A game like Tomb Raider and Stellar Blade are made by men, for men. Even the developers of the original Tomb Raider stated Lara's design was preferred, as they assumed male gamers would likely enjoy staring at her rear-end more, given the game's camera/perspective. Instead we have HQ users thinking it's gay, the complete opposite intention. Go figure.

the irony is we used to have a person who believed they were a ***** posting here that thought playing tomb raider felt euphoric or somesuch
That's their problem, they were already in the ***** mindset long before they decided to play the game.

They play the game because it makes them feel 'gender euphoria'

Again, that's their problem. Tomb Raider wasn't made for them, it was made for normal men with normal behaviour. You can attach a perverse sexual fetish to pretty much anything, doesn't mean that the original work endorses that in any way.

Only if it's by choice. Playing GAMES is not. There's no difference to playing Joanna Dark in Perfect Dark as there is playing James Bond in Goldeneye. They're both just good games, who gives a **** what gender the protag is, they were both marketed towards men and had gameplay elements that men enjoy.

Maybe you're already gay, Rusty?. And hating on hot women in games is your strange attempt at compensating? :smug:

Everyone knows porn addicts and coomers get tired of whatever their current fetish is and seek more depraved fetishes. This is the cycle that leads to autogynephilia which is the root cause of ******.

Coomer porn games where one plays as the source of sexual focus and perversion are entirely linked to ****** and their rot.

Wasn't the director of Mortal Kombat X a sodomite who made all the male characters shirtless, and the female ones fully decked out in armor?. I would wager a character like Duke Nukem falls into that sort of mold, and is therefore more gay :smug:

Then there are those of us that like DignifAI images.
Not everyone that appreciates female beauty is destined to be a degenerate. The degeneracy is inherent to the pervert before the images cause it to be exposed.

Not marketed to men (or neutral). Doesn't count.
Nothing gay or feminine in Perfect Dark, Tomb Raider or Oni. Or aliens, or shitloads of other games that are focused on the game and just happen to have a female char, rather than the GAME being "female".

Stellar blade launches with hrt pills shaped like the dev teams anime pfp and a bluetooth dilator synced to when you take damage in the game.

Holy ****, seven pages? Tons of seething pre ****** trying to justify coomer behavior. I finished Kotor 2 like 15 times and not once made a female character, despite missing out on content. Obedient Handmaiden 4 life.

Gender is very, very important to ********. I can't imagine a ***** ever being indifferent towards the gender of a player character.

There aren't 6 million transwomen, but I'd say the number of ****** who played Tomb Raider numbered in the thousands at least. If 1% of the audience is ***** that's 70,000 people and they're all online.

Agree with bobt about tomb raider - don't see the evidence of it somehow reprogramming a person into seeings themselves differently unless they were warped in the head to begin with.
But there's probably also a difference in TR and how we perceive it now. The game content itself never sexualized the character much - renders of erotic posing in the bedroom were confined to gamer mags and promotional material. In the games she's a disowned aristo sociopath and acts like one.
