      "i hate when people pick woman protags i can't bring myself to watch the playtrough becous i can't see myself in the protag anymore" but remember representation doesn't matter and not being able to see yourself in a female protag doesn't represent some bizarre deficit of empathyhttps://twitter.com/GamerTakes/status/1187725450417790976 …

      I'm gonna go out on a limb & say if u "can't see yourself in a female protag" then you prolly haven't been forced to do so often enough by the media you've watched/played. The idea of female players not being able to see themselves in male protags is laughable. We have no choice.

      Always remember: Female experiences = gendered. Male experiences = universal.

          Don't get it. As problematic as Princess Toadstool is in Super Mario Bros 2, I was - as an 11 year old - so intrigued and found it so fun that I could play a female character in an action game like that. I wanted more of that kind of variety, not less, and I was hardly liberated.

          The best version of Princess Toadstool is from the old Nintendo Power comics, which you can buy in trade form. She was such a badass there, she saved Mario. Super Mario Adventures https://www.amazon.com/dp/1421588641/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_ru8SDbD2W3F3W …

          It's also terrifying, because really, at its heart, what they're saying is that they can't recognise a the experience of women or girls as...human. These dudes love sci-fi—they can connect with representations of *literal* aliens easier than representations of *human* people.

          Like you said, it's just a shocking display of a lack of, like, kindergarten-level empathy, just seeing other people as people.
