The Numerous Problems With E3
Pixelfoot writes "Loud music, scantily-clad models, guys hoarding free 'schwag', these things are all the lifeblood of the Electronic Entertainment Expo, but the writers of Gaming Horizon have had enough. They've got an article entitled Stuff We're Sick of: E3 Edition, going into their biggest gripes about the show and giving suggestions for how to improve it, including the now-popular notion among journalists to include a full day where the show floor is only open to media." I'll buy that for a dollar. From the article: "It seems like everybody has forgotten what E3 is for, exactly. Without droning on about the vibrant history of the expo, it's more than fair to say that E3 is supposed to be a place for people to do their jobs and it's turned into a carnival for looky-loos and swagbaggers."
Wow. I really don't know what's worse here.
There's the guys ogling the booth babes because they're men, and men like to look at women. Y'know, procreation, sex...all that tired old shit that got us to where we are today. Or, there's your good self, who by the nature of your post is implying that because a "booth babe" is getting ogled, she has neither the brain cells or the ability to do anything else and that they need YOU to go in to bat for them with the feminist perspective. A lot of these models are paying to put themselves through school/college by simply making the best of what God has given them. Its no worse or better than me putting together a bunch of HTML code and selling it to someone so that I can afford to eat and drink. Is my buyer wrong for staring at the pretty website I made?
Now what's worse? Me looking at an attractive women, or you implying that she's not at all intelligent BECAUSE she's attractive? Hmm...
My Mind Is Rewired. Is Yours?
