The pregnancy mechanics in Fallout Shelter are super troubling. The primary way to progress is to impregnate as many women as possible.

Satire actively criticizes its target. Fallout Shelter's pregnancy mechanics aren't satirizing 50s sexism, just "humorously" reproducing it.

@femfreq your making something sexist that wasn't supposed to be all of the game is supposed to be cute and humorous. I like it! -
@GeorgeH63731887@femfreq It doesn't matter if it wasn't "supposed" to be sexist, it is. -
@MaxwellElvis@femfreq I'm sorry but it's not I'm not trying to start an argument but-please listen to my reasons why I think it isnt -
@GeorgeH63731887@MaxwellElvis how about you don't and instead you read again why it is. Better yet, don't try to tell women it's not. -
@RemingtonWild@MaxwellElvis I did but this game....one that is supposed to be cute and humorous offends women...., please that's stupid! -
@GeorgeH63731887@RemingtonWild How about you stop trying to tell a woman what she is and is not allowed to be offended by? - 4 more replies

@femfreq and I noticed when I send a woman out to explore, she said "thank goodness I'm wearing sensible shoes!"
-
@VividVivka Because it's 1950s satire...its meant to be a joke... -
@BBBriangaming if its a joke, it's one in poor taste and still wrong. -
@VividVivka I disagree things like this shouldn't be a big deal may as well ban half of TV especially shows like South Park or SNL

@femfreq This idea is, again satire on 1950s family life. -
@Flygontheepic62
@femfreq Where's the punchline? -
@MaxwellElvis@femfreq I don't need one :p -
@Flygontheepic62
@femfreq The game needs one. There isn't. -
@MaxwellElvis@femfreq The games fine. Just generic management game. There's Nothing terribly wrong with it -
@Flygontheepic62
@femfreq Except the content. -
@MaxwellElvis@femfreq And what is wrong with the content may I ask? -
@Flygontheepic62

We must stand against this man-hating woman. Brain-washing women to find something sexist in everything.
