Fragdoll Thread

Who even cares about the "Fragdolls" anyway? It's lame. Just because they are somewhat attractive girls playing games, they have to form a whole special group over it? Pretty stupid. Maybe if they are actually good at games, then fine, but I've heard they aren't even any good. Attractive + Plays some games doesn't really mean shit to me. Hot chicks watch movies too. I don't see any "Hot Chick Movie Watchers Club".

How ya doing, buddy?

Computers and gaming, despite being a much more open thing now than it was in, say, the mid eighties, still has heavy stereotypes that are set on it. I'm not trying to take sides here, but this really isn't anything like watching movies, since they've been widely considered genderless activities since their creation.

That's my point, dude. Why does there need to be a special group of female gamers? It makes no sense. I know movies as a whole are not generally gender specific, but movie genres are. You think of romance movies, that's for women. You think of action movies, that's for men. You don't see groups of hot women action movie watching groups, or macho men romance movie watcher groups. Why does there need to have a group of chicks form some kind of group of female game players as if they are some kind of special skills. If they were highly skilled, fine, I'm all for it. But I've heard they are not even any good, so the whole thing is completely pointless other then to say "hey look, we're a bunch of chicks who play games". LAME.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
