117. If only the damn game ever came out in the U.S.! I've read that it did, but, despite all my searching, I've never seen a copy. :-( And it's the only one in the series that I'm missing, except for XF.

132. You, dear poster, have excellent taste in villainous men.

136. *headscratch* I'm really wondering when people are going to realize that feminism won, at least in the Internet-capable world.

136. It really, really hasn't. Things have gotten better, yes, but we've still got a long way to go. You don't have to go far to find gender-based discrimination even in the most progressive of Western European countries.

Give it a little time, Anon. I don't know how old you are, of course, but you'll see things in your lifetime – even in the next couple of years, perhaps – that seemed impossible even in the '90s.

Oh, most likely! But it's going to happen through people continuing the work that was started, even if only in subtle ways — not through everyone suddenly deciding they've won and going complacent.

I agree. After all, even if a victory's been won, one has to follow it up. :-)

136. Man, that is so not something you should have said on F!S. The feminists will descend on this comment like a phalanx of angry soldiers. 8(

*chuckles*

I'm a feminist myself, Ms. Ky, and I wouldn't say it if there wasn't a substantial body of research to back me up.

I consider myself one too, and agree with you. Just the F!S variety don't take too kindly to the idea ^^'

;-) Can't roast a proper marshmallow without being close to the fire.

You do know that women's rights and feminism is more than being able to vote, right?

Indeed, it is. It's getting a university education. It's having a long life expectancy. It's moving up in the professional world. You'd agree, no?

Women go to college in substantially larger numbers than men do, now. They also live at least seven years longer on average. Now, they're also eroding the long lead that men have had in business, both in terms of equal pay and professional advancement. They're even a majority of the U.S. population.

The right to vote is old news. :-) True, there's still a little ways to go, but ... watch. In less than a generation, women will have, statistically, everything they wanted and more. It's a good thing.

Wow.

Just...no. Having the right to vote and go to school does not equality make.

*cuts-and-pastes from response to other comment*

(Response to this specific comment: Women have come a lot farther than the two things you mention. I wonder if they realize just how far?)

No. That's only part of it.

It's not being seen world-wide as the property of men, whether that view is overt or covert. It's not having everything associated with women devalued in relation to things associated with men. It's eliminating homophobia - which is fundamentally misogynistic. It's recognizing that not all women are the same, or have the same concerns; that race and class and various other things separate the experiences of women. It's recognizing that all women DO share being oppressed as women. And many other things I don't have the time, or room, or even awareness of to mention.

(Response to this specific comment: Women have come a lot farther than the two things you mention. I wonder if they realize just how far?)

There is so much more to equality that being about to vote, work, or go to school. Note that I mentioned those things because you mentioned them first.

And I think you're incredibly condescending for suggesting that the people replying to you don't have a good idea how far we've gotten. Particularly when you don't seem to have ANY idea how far there is left to go.

When - IF - feminism ever achieves its goal of equality for all people regardless of gender, I can promise you that the world will not look ANYTHING like it does right now.

*shrugs*

To be condescending was not my goal.

At least you've got a passion for the cause, no? ;-)
