If you’re designing games for the male gaze, the gender select screen is basically “are you here for the ooh-ra, or the a-woo-ga?”
What if you’re designing for the male gays?
I need an ass slider
Creating my XIV Roegadyn female character
“Why not both?”
Nah, it’s pretty much the right side for both.
Can’t remember what I was playing but I started getting attacked when I thought I was in a safe spot and got up to grab something from the fridge; the getting hurt sounds my dude was making sounded like he was taking cock like a champ.
As a masochistic woman, I feel attacked. 😅
Ah, I presume ‘pzzzt’ refers to the sound of electricity between the clamps?
Arcing electricity is not good.
Them seem like kink-shaming words!
Advice for safety.
me too 😅
Let’s not pretend we don’t know the reason.

Well I’m a straight cis male programmer who could describe myself as a rigger/master type. And I definitely play the female characters because those hard hits are fucking lovely to hear.
Anyone who’s played Dead By Daylight can attest that all the characters hurt sounds like the right side
Dead By Daylight 100% xD
I can only imagine what it’s like being part of the recording team when it comes to getting the hurt sounds. Probably something like this.
Man, reading a Robert Evans Cracked article from 2016 takes me back.
I loved Cracked so much before they fired everyone who people liked 7 years ago.
That’s impressive because for some people it’s a traumatic experience being stuck in quicksand and nearly dying, and for others it’s an arousing experience. Very interesting how differently people perceive it.
well it’s just because in the old tv shows there was a lot of… odd sounds from women caught in quicksand
A women being hurt 9 times of 10 is screaming. Imagine how annoying that’d be in a game.
The “women are always screaming” stereotype is sexist. It’s a direct extension of the pseudoscientific hysteria diagnosis that used to be commonly accepted. “A women,” as you put it, might scream, and you might find that annoying. Women as a category have higher pitched voices on average, and the line between “reasonable yelling” and “hysterical screaming” is often just one of pitch, even when the cause for alarm or injury is the same.
Additionally, neither I nor any of the women in my life “scream” in response to injury. We yell in pain just like someone with a masculine voice, if a bit higher pitched. Some may, but it’s not common and is usually reserved for situations of extreme alarm or fear, or occasionally excitement. Any time a woman does scream on video, you always see someone in the comments complaining about how annoying women screaming is. The same is never said about men screaming, unless they scream “like a girl.”
9/10 times. How out of touch are you?
