    GLaDOS and The Sniper Join Up To Support GaymerX2

    Wether or not a Convention for this or that is 'necessary' is just an odd question. It's not like we can only have a limited number of conventions a year, thus we must only choose conventions that are, well, conventional. Having a fun and open event where LGBT topics in gaming can be...

    Blizzard Dev Offers Apology for Response to Sexualization Question

    It would be interesting to see more female characters that are designed around their personality. All political/social/gender issues aside, It's just getting boring seeing the same portable boobs-on-legs characters.

    Geek Girls Lambast Prejudice in Music Video

    Trying to root out "fake geek girls" is a waste of time. more often than not you're doing more harm than good by wrongfully blaming people for not being "passionate" enough...as if we need to all be on 'terrorist-level-loyalty' to win the badge of geekness. If someone is pretending to like...

    Why Makeb Hits LGBT Players So Hard

    oh dear...another article about LGBT. I'm too tired to argue in forum debates about who's in the right or wrong again x__x but in short: I think the gay thing is more confusing for straight people...for us, we just get on with our lives, it's part of who we are. Yeah the "gay planet" thing in...

    Jimquisition: Only The Lonely

    Love my friends as I do, sometimes it's just healthy to relax by yourself. If we did everything with our friends what the hell would you talk about? =/ "Hey! you know that quest in Skyrim I was struggling with?" "umm...yeah. I was there remember?" "oh. i forgot."

    On Gaymers and Cons

    Again, the ignorance. Homosexuality, Just like Heterosexuality, is more than just a matter of "flirting and sex." Its about Love too, and lifestyle, and because of that it deserves just as much respect. Also I think you'd be surprised about just how much homosexuality crops up, not just in...

    On Gaymers and Cons

    The point is it's an social environment where sexuality can be discussed freely alongside games. Where gay people don't have to worry about being "inappropriate" or "weird" for talking about their loved ones now and then. It's not exclusive, or discriminatory anymore than regular gamer con...

    On Gaymers and Cons

    That makes no sense. If "gays also welcome" were whole heartedly true it wouldn't be discriminatory. I think you're assuming singling a group of people out by default means they reject everyone else. It's not, The emphasis of Gaymer con is just to show that discussing sexuality, in addition to...

    On Gaymers and Cons

    Just don't freak out or give us weird looks when we discuss which same-sex game characters are pretty hot. Or if we decide to bring our partners along and hold hands. It's as simple as that. =) Though sadly it's not simple enough for some folks =(

    On Gaymers and Cons

    Yes sexuality and games may be a far cry from each other, but it's not about homosexuality AND games. You'd be hard pressed to find many games with gay main characters after all...rather Gaymer con sets up an ENVIROMENT in which gay people and same-sex couples can discuss games, walk around...

    Jimquisition: Fake Nerd Girls

    It's a little up-your-own-arse to assume that anyone who pretends to be nerdy, for whatever reason, is 'unworthy' to do so. That attitude just makes us sound snooty and elitist. Besides, if people really want to spend their lives only 'pretending' to like something, then that's fine! I don't...

    256: Hardcore Maleness

    I'm not sure it's a matter of gender-related-status, the 'Hardcore' vs. 'Casual' issue is just a matter of elitism. Most people, regardless of what circle or background they come from want to be recognized for their achievements, to be seen as king of the castle. It's sad that nowerdays a lot...

    Anonymous Threatens Internet With "Operation Blackout"

    Anonymous seem to make all kinds of generalized accuzations on 'the authority' and 'bankers'. Just because they hide behind their mysterious Orwell's 1984 fascade, doesn't give them the right to speak for, let alone decide, everyones political and cultural beliefs. They go on about...
