2:44pm: More boobie related gamer wank
There's this article making the round on my friendslist by Kim Ron, self proclaimed "eSportler" (the article is a few days old but I checked on both otf_wank and fandom_wank and couldn't find anything, so beat me if this is old). Subtly, sensitive and insightful he writes:

Men are better at computer-games than women. Big surprise. We grow up playing games, we spend enormous amounts of time playing games, we consciously dedicate time to better ourselves and we are competitive by nature. No wonder we are better gamers.

He thinks the only four reasons female eSportlers ever get a sponsor are:

They have vaginas.
They have asses.
They have tits.
They have mouths.

That more or less covers the 4 primary selling-points for female gaming teams.

Of course, splooge flies. 123 comments and still counting on the article itself and another 115 on LJ's girl_gamers. An intermediate wank but worth noticing.

We have the mindless yay sayers like  jonas:

But I do believe that any girl/woman involved in gaming would deny your conclusion.
Nontheless very very true :D

Yes, indeed, there are some titbearing wannabegamers who care to disagree, er, I mean, are in denial:

nmo: I’ll tell you what the problem is. It’s not that you begin your thoughts with drawing a clear line between female and male gamers; dividing the scene and clearly saying that “Hey, I will never let you enter my world of male dominance”. That I can deal with. What bothers me the most is that you, in a very explicite way, draw paralells with being a two-dollar hooker and a female gamer, no, I wont buy that.

To which Kim cleverly replies: nmo, I’m not saying that I (or anyone else) will never allow female gamers into a world of male dominance. I am just stating the obvious

Laust thinks that GAMING IS SIRIUZ BUSINESS!

The only reasonable feedback I can see is nmo’s arguments.

The rest is either “thumbs up” or “fU** j0 I dizagrEE with my no-brain comments!1″

And that’s my point really. There are just too many teenagers and people living their lives online in the esport business, that the ones who’ve actually got something to say are waisting their time

MissHyper says:   U say u support female gaming, but after an articel like this u just removed all respect for female gamers and removes quite a bit more respect herself a few lines later. And mark my words, i dont say female gamers is as good as male, far from, but i really think if they got the chance and u gave those tho deserves it a bit respect, i dont think it will take long before u see some girls joing up with “Pro-teams”

Wan Zafran really would like to respect femal gamers. Srsly: Once upon a time I believed that there was equality in the world of gaming; at least in terms of skills over gender. And then I kicked so many female asses that the statement became a false one.

On LJ elhaym_solaris suggests: Perhaps the reason he thinks all gamer-girls are unskilled camwhores, is because those are the only ones he's gotten to see due to his fantastic social skills

stellarstiles: Oh-uh. Someone must have been owned by a girl with big boobs in the past and is feeling a little bit inadequate, no?

 

4:42pm: Give a troll the keys to the city...
So. _ljsecret. Spin-off of ljsecret, a spin-off in its time of PostSecret. Supposedly less wanky than the community it is spun off of.

No longer.

Mods: We don't give a shit about this comm anymore. Someone take our jobs. Please.

Posters: ME ME ME ME ME!

sadorange: ...ehehehehehe *is modded*

And all hell breaks loose.

So. Especially clever troll? Calculated move by the previous admin to annihilate the community? Conspiracy by those bastards over at ljsecret?

Who knows? But it's damn funny!

10:57pm: Cock rings and lube . . . the gifts that keep on giving.
This one . . . I've no idea, honestly, but it's nice to see Smallville working so hard to get back up there in the wank tournament. I thought HP was going to shut everyone else out at this rate . . .

Anyway, from what I gather, Michael Rosenbaum appeared at some charity event or hockey game or summat and some "fans" (term used loosely) presented him with a gift.

The gift contained money for the charity, a jersey, a shirt, and . . . "a superman tin that we've [rightfully] dubbed the 'smut box' (because it contained a pocket pussy, wet lube, a whip, Panty Dropper Massage Oil, Everyone Loves a Happy Penis -- Penis Massage Creme, Tit Tarts, Aphrodisiac Chocolates, Kama Sutra Cards, and a purple cockring)."

*allows several seconds for that to sink in*

Which leads to the wank, namely that those who are rightly shocked and disgusted by such a tasteless and trashy "gift" (can you tell which side I'm on?) are seen as prudes by those who'd just like to sweep it under the rug or those who think it was just innocent merriment.

Over on LJ, SV grande dames emrinalexander and trislindsay weigh in on the subject, respectively.

A sockpuppet by the name of rosenwanker shows up in both threads, along with various anons, and good times are had by all.

Small at this juncture, but will probably grow. I also gather from comments that there's wank over on TWOP, but I'm not entirely sure what or where that is, so I leave it to other wankas to search it out . . .

Edit: Thanks to serafina20, here's the link to the TWOP stuff (at the end of the page), and more wank can be found in perclexed's journal here.
