Zierro Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 I'd watch it. Between L4D, HL2, TF2, and Portal, Valve did establish plenty of likable characters, as evidenced through the amount of meme-attention they receive throughout the net. I wouldn't be surprised if they tried their luck in non-video-game fields of media. I anticipate a lot from Valve in the future as they're one of the only modern day game companies to actually "Wow" me. Who knows? They could be the first to pull off the 'video game --> show' thing successfully; they know how to win the public's heart with their characters and plots and they are constantly striving for something new, so they do have the resources and mind power to pull it off.

aspeeder Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Most men prefer that there sons would turn out to be....men, surprisingly. A child being very feminine is going to promote a feminine lifestyle and thus the child will turn out to be, as my dad usually puts a lot of teens these days "a little [kitty]". That's what's seen as the problem to a lot of people with this.Here's a story about a dad standing up for, not his gender-norm defying son, but his transgendered daughter (Meaning she was born with a boy's body). Believe it or not, most parents only want their children to be happy. That's it. Besides, men's gender stereotypes cause just as much harm as women's gender stereotypes do. Further, all this machismo [cabbage] is what leads to men committing over 90% of all violent crimes. And you know what, even if you don't believe that men and women should have the right to act in opposition to their gender stereotypes and that how we act is determined biologically, then I can say I should then act more feminine than you (In all likelihood anyway). According to the Digit Ratio Theory the ratio of your pointer finger to your ring finger is a sexually dimorphic quality: a longer ring finger to shorter pointer finger (A lower ratio) points to more testosterone in the womb, and visa-versa a higher ratio points to more estrogen in the womb. For men the average ratio is .94 and for women it's around one, my ratio is 1.04. Things aren't just black and white, and biological components don't tell the whole story, but one set of accepted values is far too narrow for our society. In short, [bleep] your harmful 50's era gender norm bull[cabbage]. EDIT: Before anyone else talks about these kind of gender issues, I want you to watch this documentary about traditionally violent masculinity and the incredible harm it does to men, women, and society at large; all 7 parts no excuses. If you don't want to fine, just don't do your macho trolling. Note that there is some negative portrayals of videogames stereotypical to the time, it is a bit older, and the audio only works on the right side, but it is an important documentary.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=79ijDA_1FVYhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vBQz921BBlI&feature=relatedhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EgXCyvQIRaA&feature=relatedhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sTa_E-jCrNs&feature=relatedhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V3LhqzuCPtQ&feature=relatedhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IzVUifBnSzM&feature=relatedhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n1UNLYcfANo&feature=related http://i700.photobucket.com/albums/ww6/aspeeder/Siggy_zpsewaiux2t.png 99 Strength since 6/02/10 99 Attack since 9/19/10 99 Constitution since 10/03/10 99 Defense since 3/14/11 99 Slayer since 8/30/11 99 Summoning since 9/10/11 99 Ranged since 09/18/11 99 Magic since 11/12/11 99 Prayer since 11/15/11 99 Herblore since 3/29/12 99 Firemaking since 5/15/12 99 Smithing since 10/04/12 99 Crafting since 9/16/13 99 Agility since 9/23/13 99 Dungeoneering since 1/1/14 99 Fishing since 2/4/14 99 Mining since 2/28/14 99 Farming since 6/04/14 99 Cooking since 6/11/14 99 Runecrafting since 10/10/14 9 Fletching since 11/11/14 99 Thieving since 11/14/14 99 Woodcutting since 11/20/14 99 Construction since 12/03/14 99 Divination since 2/22/15 99 Hunter since 2/23/15 99 Invention since 01/20/17 99 Archaeology since 5/14/22Quest Point Cape since 08/20/09 Maxed since 2/23/15 Fire Cape since 02/27/13 Slayer: 3 Leaf-Bladed Swords, 8 Black Masks, 2 Hexcrests, 26 Granite Mauls, 5 Focus Sights, 32 Abyssal Whips, 9 Dark Bows, 1 Whip Vine, 3 Staffs of Light, 15 Polypore Sticks Dragon: 9 Draconic Visages, 7 Shield Left Halves, 20 Dragon Boots, 40 Dragon Med Helms, 8 Dragon Platelegs, 6 Dragon Spears, 20 Dragon Daggers, 5 Dragon Plateskirts, 1 Dragon Chainbody, 63 Off-hand Dragon Throwing Axes, 19 Dragon Longswords, 27 Dragon Maces, 1 Dragon Ward Treasure Trails: Saradomin Full Helm, Ranger Boots, Rune Body (t), Saradomin Vambraces, Various God Pages Misc:1 Onyx,1 Ahrim's Hood, 1 Guthan's Chainskirt, 1 Demon Slayer Boots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
