Have they closed the porn industry there or is that not classed as 'objectifying'? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The ban is insane how ever there is some tracks that are defying ban. https://www.dailystar.co.uk/news/latest-news/705246/f1-monaco-grand-prix-grid-girls-return-model-lewis-hamilton-vettel-news F1 didnt just put the women out of work, they put them out of a job that involves traveling around the world, getting vip treatment, working with big brands and superstar drivers among other things.

Sorry, I just find it really, really cheap to use woman to trigger teens in to playing your game.

Remember, its OK you find it sexist, but given everyone has choices, it has no bearing here, see the example with pit girls, they were not feeling mistreated, someone decided to be outraged for them and act upon them without asking, in really PC SJW fashion and liquidated their livelyhoods. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[MPT] AkosJaccik Players 920 posts 11,177 battles Report post #23 Posted August 17, 2018 Now, I'm not sure if this discussion has a place here (certainly not in gameplay, but it might be closed otherwise too), but I'm fully with the notion that individual acts of sexism are despicable (regardless of aimed at whichever gender) and should be cast out first and foremost by society. Individual acts - There is a clear perpetrator and a victim. by society - No overall thought policing. Tim talks in a degrading manner about women in public and he's dead serious - the public should not endorse this, not even his friends. This can't be the social norm. ...but that's it! Tim slaps his co-worker's [edited]or does not employ her simply and provably because she's a woman - Tim should be sued. Tim puts up a calendar depicting a half-naked woman in his workshop - so what? Let alone talking about the slippery slope. The "capture yourself playing wows with your pet?" Animal abuse. Battle remembrances? Using the dead for commercial purposes. Girl chooses a buffed guy over someone else? Holy sh*t, objectifying and offending men, maybe even fat-shaming or something! Where do we end and say - it's acceptable? ...by the way, the tank-top Eagles/Sharks promo wasn't objectifying enough? Jesus, the virtue signalling will make life miserable and people increasingly frustrated if this whole "let the state tell you how to think about things without even acting in any criminal manner" goes on. In my country, there is this saying: "The path to hell is paved by the stones of goodwill." 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
