> The study, published by the American Psychological Association, asked about 100 women to play one of two Tomb Raider games. In one, Tomb Raider Underworld, subjects played a part in the game where Croft is outfitted in “bikini bottoms and a form-fitting long-sleeved wetsuit top” that was “portrayed in a way that emphasized Lara’s waist, hips, and breasts.”
> This was the “sexualized” gameplay, since as the study explained, “one of the indicators of sexualization is clothing that is not appropriate for the task to be completed.” The other subjects played the 2013 game Tomb Raider, where Croft is wearing cargo pants and a tank top. Participants then filled out a well-known study for self-objectification, or “emphasizing physical appearance” in self-evaluations. The study’s results indicated that playing the “sexualized” segment of Tomb Raider Underworld did not make players feel body shame or impact their body satisfaction—or, at least, not as much as other types of objectification, like catcalling.

I think every single girl gamer I know has a different opinion about sexualization. But all of them agree that sexy girls are ok. Just that sometimes the context is super duper important while others enjoy taking slutty pics from their in game girls. So I am not surprised by that study result.
Brandon Edwards
>playing the “sexualized” segment of Tomb Raider Underworld
Now that you mention it, I'm a fucking skeleton and sexy muscular men never bothered me. It's funny how little it matters to me that someone else had to point it out for me to notice.
This is the same APA that trannies base most of their justification for transgender being a respectable and real state of mind
For them to disregard this study is to disregard their own identity and all validations.

Andrew Thompson
I’m gonna let you guys in on a little secret. They’re bribed by pharmaceutical companies to push agendas to fund their research. That’s why trannies are becoming more rampant and why doctors willingly allow it to happen. If they say anything the jeopardize other research so they don’t really care what happens to the mentally ill
Cooper Perez
of course it doesnt, women will be insecure no matter what we do. everybody knows this but nobody says it.

Jacob Jones
Real reason why feminist campaign against this shit is that it, like any erotic content, drives value of female holes down. Drives just a little, not comparable to something like legalized prostitution, but it still does. Thing is that decent-looking women won't have any problem with it because they will always remain desirable even if world will be filled with porn, but there are no decent-looking women among feminists, only ugly fat trash bitches who refuse to invest any effort into self-improvement. But they still feel entitled for male attention, so they viciously fight against everything that can distract it.
Jordan Brown
Women aren't oppressed you stupid fucking tranny

They don't because they're not real. The media itself is almost never based in reality so saying a game has unrealistic body images is just the action of an ass.

Not surprising considering the feminist line about sexualization being bad was never actually backed up by any kind of hard evidence. It was one of those things you were just supposed to believe or be called a sexist, probably because it was a necessary component for their desperate power plays.

That's because it does. Find me a legit scuba suit that has most of a woman's ass cheeks showing. Scuba suits cover skin to keep you warm, like seal skin does.
Not that I mind, I want to bury my face in that ass and try and tongue her pussy only to fail because her cheeks are so massive and my tongue can't reach. But fuck tonguing assholes, that's some nasty shit, even if they clean it.
Whether it did or did not make them feel like shit, that's not my problem, that's something they'd have to overcome themselves. Even if it caused bulimia, suicide, cutting, etc, your personal failings and inability to work yourself out, shouldn't affect other people's choices in media. I wouldn't accept someone telling me I can't drink alcohol because some people can't control their drinking so this question and answer is irrelevant and doesn't even have be asked in the first place.
Maybe we should all start collectively committing suicide and in the notes, start saying that women just have it too good. I'd be willing to start if I had some follow up.

Media depictions of gender roles instill an unconscious bias that is deeply ingrained in culture. If you ask someone straight up of course they'll say 'oh it's just a movie" but it plants a seed of conformity within them that sprouts into a worldview.

Women who actually play video games don't care. It's usually journalists who make a big deal out of it, along with Anita and her cronies. Half of it is that their negative perception pressures devs to "be mature" with their character designs while the other half is that devs are so up their own asses about making "realistic" games that they think women with a lot of sex appeal will hurt their artful stories, when most of their stories are just shit. If the story is good, that wouldn't really impact it.
men look up to their superiors >unattainable lazy fuck
Levi Wilson
In a way it kind of made sense. The videogame companies and studios made a fatal flaw: they asked women who don't play videogames "why don't you play videogames?" The result was going to be skewed to the opinions of people looking at games from the outside. If they asked women whom play videogames " what got you into videogames?" they would get a totally different answer and one that actually would get more fucking women playing videogames.
Two things. 1) Women don't really want hyper-muscular men. There's a few that do, but the vast majority of women prefer someone who's toned but svelte. 2) Women don't evaluate the attractiveness of men the same way men do women. Men look for a mate with desirable traits that are mostly *genetic* in nature; hips, breasts, eye color, hair color, etc. Women look for traits in men that are *proactive* in nature; has money, works out, has ambition, etc. Men want women who are good genetic matches for their offspring, and women want men who can provide and care for her family. Speaking baseline, primitive. What they *actually do*, from a rational perspective, is different, but that's the basic idea of what each gender wants out of the other on a subconscious level.
Andrew Bailey

If we're being completely honest, if your goal is to have sex, you can and will unironically have sex. You would have to be monstrously ugly to not attract any woman period. The problem is that obviously, people want to sleep with people they find attractive.
Tyler Myers
Nothing hilarious about reality.
Parker Watson
Just so you know, the term "incel" was coined by a lesbian, and the incel community was originally a support group of straight and gay *women* to help other women get dates.
>people want to sleep with people they find attractive. Exactly. And what you find attractive is directly related to how you associate the female form. And if you're a loner who spends all day every day playing video games and watching anime And if those video games and anime have big titty dreamgirls in it Then you're going to expect that and desire that, on an increasingly subconscious level.
It's where the whole "3/10 knees too sharp" meme came from

Isaiah Thomas
>This study will never be mentioned again. And despite people constantly bringing it up :thinking:
Adam Powell
They do, but there's a bit more nuance. The rate of attempt is still skewed towards men, but it's closer than you'd think. Men pick more effective methods, where as women are more likely to do it for attention. I suspect this will shift somewhat in the coming years as there enters a new group of 30-40 year old women who are single and unwanted by even the lowest tiers of men. There are ramifications to behavior, and women are going to start reaping what they've sown.
Dominic Ortiz
I think you might just be thinking too deep. As a child I never thought the action figures I played with influenced any type of "body awareness". And the movies I saw as a child never impacted me on how I should look either. I never looked at Conans biceps and the looked at my biceps and felt gay fucking feelings.
The women who tell you the media wants them to be a certain way are in fact just jealous they don't look like that.
Jason Baker

There's a difference between ideals and expectations, though. Look at your parents. And their parents. And THEIR parents. There's literally thousands of generations of your ancestors (or more, depending on whether or not you believe in evolution) who had no problems getting laid before you. And genetics dictate they didn't look or act *too* much differently than you do. So what could have occurred between your dad's generation and yours to change what you expect out of a mate?
Lucas Gray
Most of those women were lesbians who literally couldn't find other lesbians, or were terrified of the blowback that might come from outing themselves
Juan Walker
You're a woman and it shows in the way you converse. Men's expectations haven't changed, but women's has. You can not have a career, children, and a family life. It is literally impossible.

I don't understand how dating apps could make such an impact when so many of the women who use it are full of shit/don't use it as it was intended. It's like they make an account a literally do nothing for a few days and then jerk around some of their matches, if they're not just hoarding followers for their Instagram.
Nathaniel Ramirez
I don't associate myself with fringe communities (granted, this board most likely has visitors from /pol/ and what not). Gamers are generally looked down upon, and "incel" has been becoming a more popular term to use due to other mainstream sites such as reddit giving them attention.
The difference is, when it was about women, it was a support group teaching women who don't know how to approach other women, how to approach other women.
Now that it's about men, it's about subjugation of all women.
It used to be about learning to overcome personal shortcomings, and now it's about making the government issue you someone to have sex with.
Dylan Moore
how do you determine this to be a fact
Luke Ward
it's sad how we've regressed. a decade ago calling someone a "virgin" as an insult was seen as immature and inappropriate since it implied everything in life is about sex. nowadays it's become the go to insult against "people i don't like".
Austin Clark
Nah incel groups don't want to subjugate women that's said ironically. Incel groups are just spreading awareness "hey you dumbfuck no amount of hard work or money is going to get you what Chad gets just for being him so stop wasting energy chasing that"
Jose Lee
>Gamers are generally looked down upon They're really not, is the hilarious bit. If anyone hated you because you were a "gamer", it's because you were still in school and everyone was bullying everyone else.
If anyone is hating "gamers" now, they're really not, they're hating racist and sexist morons who post twitter screenshots to make you feel victimized for bullshit they started.
Lucas Johnson
>"hey you dumbfuck no amount of hard work or money is going to get you what Chad gets just for being him so stop wasting energy chasing that" That's not better. It's also not working. Clearly.
Easton Lopez
But hey, that's just a theory...
Brayden Evans
Also, it's false. "Chad" doesn't exist after age 25. Feeling insecure about the idea of "Chad" is a sign of immaturity and/or arrested development, and THAT'S the reason you're not getting laid.
Jason Bennett
I don't know why everybody here thinks 25 is a magic number, are you retards?
Alexander Hill
>Chad doesn't exist after age 25 >Women stop being attracted to attractive men after 25
Because, by 25, you should be out of school, or at least gotten through the vast majority of it, and seen enough of the real world to get a sense of how it *actually* works, and how much highschool politics doesn't matter in the slightest.
Nolan Phillips
This is just my guess but maybe most women don't actually give a shit about video games or the men who play them.
>"Chad" doesn't exist after age 25. Imagine being this retarded.
Juan Cook
>after 25 I dropped all my social circles, meaning social, charismatic, and attractive men did too!!
You fucking moron, lol. “Chad’s” aren’t socially retarded like you. We keep our social circles and continue to expand because more networking = better opportunities. You get invited to private parties left and right, and no, I don’t mean “in some dude’s flat.” And meeting women gets even easier because it’s all about social heirarchy. If you’re a high status man, you’re even MORE valuable at 30 because that POTENTIAL you had at 20s should now be manifested into actual wealth and networks.
Hunter Fisher
Women actually prefer to look at sexy characters over ugly ones.
Honestly things are the way they are not because of some men deciding, its because we as a whole prefer it this way and a tiny vocal minority is losing their shit because things are not catering to them.
The thing is, you're talking about wealth and power, and you can get those things regardless of physical attractiveness.
I didn't mean that "chads" cease existing in a puff of smoke. I meant that power and influence is all that matters, and before 25, when you're young and inexperienced, looks are the best way to get that, but after 25, after college and early awkward adult years, looks stop mattering as much. In the real world, the most undatable face in the world can get laid, if they're personable enough, and that's something literally anyone can achieve.
Growing up means learning that social skills are learned, not innate.
William Rodriguez
>I’m a social reject therefore everyone else must be It’s not hard user: don’t be ugly, work out, go out and socialize, make money, dress well, have varied interests and hobbies, pursue your passions.
Working out gives you more testosterone, and the attention you get for being good-looking makes you confident. Combine this with wealth, and now you’ve pretty much got power in every social interaction, placing you at or near the top of most basic social groups. By going out and socializing a lot you’ll narrated work out the ins and outs of being charismatic and funny. Make sure you hang out with “the cool guys” of the group. You’ll know who they are if you pay attention to the social dynamics lf the group.
Being one of or the top guy in any group will pretty much ensure all women’s eyes are on you. From there it’s basically effortless. Plus, if you’ve done things correctly, and you became friends with the other “alpha males” they’ll help you get laid. Though, this also depends on how likeable you are, which in part relates to how assertive you are. Don’t be a pushover, know your own worth.

Looks don’t stop mattering at all, lol. If you wanna keep sleeping with 21 yo’s well into your late 30s even early 40s, you better be fit, healthy, and handsome.
No normal person unironically refers to himself as a "Chad" in any context. I really don't know what you get out of making yourself feel socially superior to everyone else on an anonymous mongolian basket weaving forum. Just know that no one here is really impressed by your self-perception, "Chad".

I’m only using your own lingo. Call it whatever you like. Not everyone who browses this forum is a loser social reject. It’s within the top 10 most visited sites on the internet, to assume that every man who posts here is a NEET loser is the literal definition of projection.
You’re the one pretending that “chads” stop existing past 25 in order to feel better. Which is laughably stupid. Socially successful men build on their relationships and grow. They don’t just poof out of existence.

I'm not the same user who made up that arbitrary number to define what a "Chad" is. I do believe however that applying a label like that to any socially successful man is very juvenile. And I'm not even implying that it's so black and white between "Chads" and NEET losers, because I'm neither of those. The way you talk about yourself and other "Chads" like you just makes you sound like you have something to prove to us.

>sample of 100 for a population of over 3,500,000,000 nice. although I guess to Yea Forums 100 is a lot since they'll probably talk to under 10 in their lives.

Obviously it’s not black and white, but as a 29 yo, I’m telling you it gets even easier as you approach your 30s. In your 30s, you have something you didn’t have in your 20s: MONEY. And this makes a HUGE difference. Not only that, but most women have a natural bias toward “preferring older men.” It wasn’t hard for me before, but my limits in the types of girls I can pull have greatly expanded. Yeah, looks alone don’t cut it, they give you an edge in your early 20s, but as you hit your 30s, you suddenly have to try a lot less to get girls or to climb the social ladder. There’s like an inherent social value that comes with being 30, IF you capitalized on it.
To say that it “chads stop existing past 25” is ludicrously stupid. Men who were successful with women in their 20s become even more successful with them in their 30s, as that’s your peak. It’s women who peak at 25, not men.

one of the biggest fansites for tomb raider is run by a woman. Women fucking love classic tomb raider, including my mom.

Women want hot sexy strong women because they want to be that, it's like a guy playing a handsome muscular badass man, only faggots and trannies want weak beta men and goblin looking women because they themselves are ugly and are failures as both a man and a woman.

that's what I'm saying, and honestly anything to the contrary is nothing more than manufactured outrage culture created by people who ultimately just want your money and want to control you.

>Women want hot sexy strong women because they want to be that, it's like a guy playing a handsome muscular badass man Pretty much. Anecdotal, but I have a friend whose parents were into comics in the 90's, and their mom's favorite series was Lady Death. It was interesting to find out that the statues of the character they had were because she liked them, not the dad.
Why would it? Women know they don't have to directly compete with vidya women no matter how much a guy would rather fuck it.
They know you can't procreate with it thus it's practical value is null. If you rather be with a 2d waifu than them they can take solace in knowing it's a social/ genetic death sentence to you and your family's legacy.
