      You actually have the gall to say that after assuming my life experience? You are fucking hilarious, I hope you realise that. Although I should point out that I’m more over laughing AT you, rather than with you.

      I'm not assuming anything about your life experience other than that it isn't mine and that clearly it has not illuminated for you how the widespread misogyny IN games has reinforced the culture of misogyny AROUND games.

      You're making assumptions about me in the same tweet that you say you're not making assumptions about me. Let me ask you this very simple question; Do you believe that violence in video games reinforces violence outside of video games?

      Of course, it reinforces the fact that domination through violence is accepted and even admired as an interpersonal and international value. It's well-documented that media influences our cultural values, our understanding of gender, our fears, our sense of beauty, and so on.

      even though there has been study after study by various organisations and universities to prove that it doesn't.

      Really?! People didn't start avoiding the beach in droves after the release of Jaws? Kids of Indian and South Asian descent didn't have widespread experiences of being mocked as "Apu" and "Jafar" in the 90s?

      The presence of humanized trans characters in stuff like Transparent and Orange Is the New Black isn't helping contribute to a marginally less transphobic culture? Advertising hasn't made cigarette smoking seem "cool" to young people?

      your point about advertising cigarettes is going to miss it's mark here because i'm English. We are not allowed to advertise cigarettes over here and anywhere that we sell cigarettes, even the packets them selves have to have stuff like "smoking kills" plastered all over them

      And the reason that your country has had the good sense to ban cigarette advertising is because, like all media, they can have TREMENDOUS INFLUENCE.

      No it's because the government of this country think that sweeping a problem under the rug is the best way to deal with it, and that you kill weeds by cutting off the leaves.

      I guarantee you that thousands of people who would otherwise die of cancer won't because of the ban on cigarette advertising. That seems like a good enough reason to me.

          this is from 12 months after the ban on advertising cigarettes. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/magazine/3485071.stm … and this is 11 years later http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-31819352 … both saying that the difference has been modest at very best.

          You can’t measure something that doesn’t happen, but I suspect that without these measures being taken this 8% would have remained somewhat higher.pic.twitter.com/tqvz07mkLS
