sexism

Why does Bobduh have this hair up his ass over imaginary anime sexism? What is his problem? Why does he have to drag it into every conversation? This is what happens when people who care more about politics than anime try to talk about anime.

I've noticed this with somebody else, too. They had a blog about Fullmetal Alchemist. They seemed detached, maybe even bored with the show. It was very analytical. Then, remember that one comment that Edward made that made him seem like a racist? The author threw a HUGE fit over that one sentence. He seriously cared more about fictional character racism that resulted from a translation error than he did about the entire show. I seriously hate people like this.

I know a lot of people like Bobduh, but I can't stand him. He writes every god damn article like anime fans are noble savages who peruse /r/theredpill and jerk eachother off in caves. He's the sort of person who non-ironically uses words like "problematic". He never brings anything to the table but pseudoscientific bullshit. I can't understand the appeal of him.

No, no I don't remember this. What was it?

This isn't the blog I was thinking of, but this is why people thought he was racist. It's really, really stupid.

Sorry, is there something you disagree with in the paragraph?

And this gets even worse when it comes to stuff like charges of sexism in media, since inherent in that charge is the idea that fans who see nothing wrong with it are missing the sexism, and thus might themselves harbor sexist assumptions. It’s no wonder that talking about media online very often just reduces to people screaming past each other.

If you call something sexist, fans might think you're calling them sexist. That seems like a pretty true statement to me.

He's bringing it up because it's a thing he loves to bring up. Look at his article about Nisemonogatari. Look at his Kill La Kill stuff, where he basically calls it sexist shit. He's always like this. He has to bring it into everything.

Even assuming you're right about that, I don't see how that makes his comment irrelevant or uncalled for here.

LOL. Since we're linking ask.fms here, and some of my own asks about this leaked to Bobduh's, I'll link my answers instead of answering here. I mean, I already wrote the words:

  1. Why everyone is blowing up over Saber's dress thing? A show can't portray sexist things without being sexist? Clearly the show isn't supportive of Caster's actions..

  2. What eye-candy, dude? There were no malegaze shots or fanservice; the dress is meant as an exploration of Caster and ties into her identity. It was a pretty smart way to make Caster abducting Saber amount to something in terms of character.

  3. Look, here are some excerpts from the VN explaining her point of view: http://imgur.com/a/xgPxW She does it to satisfy her sadism and the story in no way supports her. The dress is not a "random choice" when it's part of her backstory, and that magazine is unofficial. F/SN is not sexist. (NSFW imgur link)

It was very analytical. Then, remember that one comment that Edward made that made him seem like a racist? The author threw a HUGE fit over that one sentence.

Pot, meet kettle. You're the one making a huge issue of other people having differing opinions and values than yours. Also, "psuedoscience" is sort of funny.

Also, people who have problems with people using the word problematic, and also talk about people who have issues with what they consider to be non-issues. So ironic. But hey, it all fits your subreddit participation pattern.
