HOT TAKE TIME: So Riot Games held a panel at Pax West that was open to 'women and non-binary' folks. When asked to clarify they made it clear that it was 'excluding men' and called redditors who were against this 'manbabies.' I Have a few things to say about that.

Youre absolutely right. Segregation is not progress

It's like cleaning your lounge by moving all the clutter to the kitchen, it's the same problem, just in a different place.

I agree re: the manbabies line and any inflammatory comments, they very well could have handled it better, but they have a right to create a panel to encourage women and nonbinary people. I still feel that as men we should try to understand when a space is not ours.

You're absolutely right, boogie. What they was extremely counterproductive and ended up having the opposite effect of what they wanted. They shouldn't have alienated anyone at all and just had the panel open and welcoming to ALL people.

Separate but equal laws may have been a much larger problem, but I see a few similarities here...

So are you saying that because men are not included in ONE thing you are going to resort to violence? This is why the system is so broke, and it's broke because people like you don't get it. One panel ask for woman, NB only and you're saying people will get hurt?

And only when those excluded "men" started to complain were they called "manbabies' and rightfully so it seems.

idk if you have been on the League of Legends Reddit page, but a lot of those people are manbabies. They bitch and moan about anything and everything they see fit for the week. So that isn't really completely wrong.
