    Hey, dragon mage?

    Wanna hear a joke?
    (SPOILER)Women's Rights.

    I do not think this is appropriate. Before it may have been light-hearted sarcasm, but now you're purposely trolling. Do not do this again. ~ Zeromus

    Wow, that was brilliant, a 'joke' insult. Like I haven't heard any of those before. Please, if you're going to insult me, at least try to it right and come up with something intelligant. And that's a joke itself.

    A cliche never dies soon enough. Just like politicians. The only thing different now is that you get to see angsting from a different point of view. Whoopee

It will be the same with FFXIII, I think society is advanced enough to embrace a strong female lead without too much upset.

    I hope so anyway.
    Howcome there was a fuss with the main character in San Andreas? White fols were mad because the game industry lacks black characters so when GtA makes a game with one, they're all upset and racist?!
    I'm glad they did they're not that many original black game characters anyway, most of them are just stuck in sports game and those don't really count. Dammit I'm making an RPG with black main characters hah that'll upset everyone!

    As for FFxIII yay for a lead female character.

    The first black character I can remember in FF is Barret, and look at him. And his corn rows. And his gun.

    Yeah, Barret's not stereotypical at all.

    Me too, except when the main character looks like Meg Ryan, then it gets disturbing. *cough*TIDUS*cough*

    Barrett reminds me of Mr. T But, I like Mr. T so that's okay.

    Anyways- to Dragon Mage, while I agree fullheartedly about women's rights etc. it's probably not best to be jumping down everyone's throats about it... especially since most of the people who cracked the jokes were just doing simply that- joking. I find a lot of feminists tend to say lots of racist comments about men too so it always equals out in the end.

    A female lead character would be so nifty! I'm sure Square could pull it off, as long as she's got a more winning personality than a half-dressed gunner girl who jumps around all the time. (note: I like FFX-2, I really do. But for a main FF title instead of a sequel, It'd be nice to see her a little more serious, clothed, and kick-ass- like Yuna -used- to be [without the kick-ass.])

    Actually the point was, you need to lighten up. No one here has attacked women, or feminism. As a female right's supprter, I would instantly be at your side if they had. But they haven't, so no need to be so defensive.

    Yes sir. But apparently you missed the point too.

    Well, I'm truly sorry, but the thing is, it's hard to tell when someone is joking or not when all you see are words on a screen. Facial expression, tone of voice, and body language have much to do with sarcasm and joking, none of which are conveyed via computer on a forum. I realize that someone could be joking and so I asked if it was a joke or not. Instead of receiving an answear, I got more ?saracam? or truth? I was rather confused.
    And I haven't said any sexist (not racist) comments about men. I want to make sure that when I fight someone it's a real fight, when both sides mean what they say. If not, and I just randomly attack someone for something that was said in jest, and find out the truth of the situation later....I just didn't want to make an ass out of myself it all.

    Actually the point was, you need to lighten up. No one here has attacked women, or feminism. As a female right's supprter, I would instantly be at your side if they had. But they haven't, so no need to be so defensive.
    Actually, Nasarian Altimeros' first statement could have been interpreted as a sexist remark, however I was not sure, and so I asked if he was serious or not. I NEVER ATTACKED ANYONE!!!!! If you think that I've been attacking people, you haven't seen anything yet. However, I know that that won't be neccessary here. And I never saw your joke; Zeromus cut it out before I even saw it, sooo.....

    The joke is still there.

    It's kind of obvious that Altimeros was joking. I mean, nobody's that sexist any more.
