Male feminists are hilarious.
nah dude, strawmen are where it's at
Male feminists are hilarious.
How does it being "the norm" make it okay? Are you people not fucking human beings?
Who the fuck are we to tell any female what they should do for a living anyway? If they want to be a stripper or a prostitute or an escort good for them. Anyone who suggests otherwise isn't protecting females, they're holding them back.1. Girl chooses profession
2. Guy hires girl to perform chosen profession
Unless they were forced, or 14 I don't see the problem.
Oh WOW! That is absolutely rich... And now all the vigor and aggressive accusations from the first few pages of the thread fade into nothingness.
Seriously, this. Incredible stuff. More than a few people involved in this nonsense, and a few posters in this thread should be embarrassed.
Winnersusedrugs? and people are looking up to her? really?
Fighting for equality is sooo girly, right?Male feminists are hilarious.
I'm guessing you don't know what a feminist is.Male feminists are hilarious.
But there's no fighting for equality here. OP thinks escorting is degrading to women, apparently women shouldn't have the right to pick their occupation if it doesn't please some people.Fighting for equality is sooo girly, right?
Arthur Gies. Can't go wrong following that douchebag.hey I'm smart and good, which side should i stand on? who do i follow
Was Jessica Nigri at the party?
I do not even understand why hiring girls to a party is a problem. In fact, if I had a big party, it was 90% dudes and I had the cash, I'd hire girls too. It's not like they were strippers.
I'm guessing you don't know what a feminist is.
I was shocked and appalled.
Dat hover hand
Yeah, but where's the other one?
lol Well that backfired
It's ok, cry wolf long enough and by the time something actually happens nobody will give a shit. If the people behind this incident realised that they might be a bit more judicious about when they try and stir up outrage on the internet. It's a matter of time before a thread like this pops up and there is nobody taking the side of the OP. I mean nobody is going to listen to a word Holly says ever again. Her hypocrisy was disgusting. I don't see how anyone wins there.I don't suppose anyone's learned any lessons from this fiasco about assuming the worst in a quest for social justice when evidence is lacking?
No? I didn't think so. Carry on, internet justice warriors.

Notch wins again, cleared of all charges
:bow
Typical Arthur, white knighting while totally ignoring the facts. What an asshole. Holly is a troll and he's giving her a platform to troll on. Congrats. It's a disgrace the OP and title of this thread hasn't been changed yet, so quick to pile on indiscretions in the industry but fuck admitting when you're wrong right? Way to breed apathy by crying wolf and never backing down.
She really made a fool of herself.Winnersusedrug sounds super smart!
Investigative journalism...such a revolutionary idea, no wait...that's exactly the job the gaming press SHOULD be doing and by and large isn't.She really made a fool of herself.
Makes you wonder why people think it's wise to discuss this kind of stuff on twitter anyway. How about conducting, you know, an actual interview. Hell, even a few e-mails would be better than twitter.
@HaroldC91 I never said notch hired them, I said the situation there was not OK (and it really wasn’t OK)
Too many attractive girls in the VIP if I'm reading this clusterfuck properly. It's the only conclusion I can come to that could have possibly resulted in this hot mess of a non story.Really a shame. This is Bennett Foddy's last tweet on the matter, and I don't really understand what he's talking about, or why he decided to start all of this in the first place:

I don't understand it either but this happened and in a way I'm glad because it's shown there is an agenda being pushed and it's not all about protecting women in the games industry. The sooner mountains stop being made out of molehills the sooner real progress can be made regarding sexism in gaming.This is some of the stupidest shit I've seen in a while. How can people be angry at the guy for hiring dancers if he didn't hire dancers
Maybe they should elaborate on why they're so furious because being angry at Notch and co for something he didn't do is completely fucking moronic. At this stage it seems like they're pissed there were attractive girls in the VIP which is messed up beyond belief.I'd have to wonder what funchameleon and...Platy, I think her name is, think about this. Because the rather subdued Arden Kehoe is as incensed as Green, and she's not often wrong.
This a case of 'good looking girls at party', "oh they must've been paid to be there"? Jesus.
