Why am I not surprised that a bunch of straight white guys can't figure out why representation and diversity matter to some people? It's easy to not give a shit when you're already represented in everything.
But it isn't diversity when you only want yourself represented! That is still the core problem of only thinking about issues that affect you. There are issues bigger than just needing women to be better represented in video games.

And please marginalized? So after white men who is the most privileged group in the US? black males? Hispanic males?

Are you suggesting that you're a gay black man? If so, I'm not surprised in the least. You sure are flaming mad...maybe some Prep H?

Best practice for straight white guys: don't tell other people how they should feel.

I agree, I'm getting off this thread now. I'm resorting to trolling at this point, and even though Apple is clearly a psychopath, it's not worth it.

That's good advice for everyone.

Are you suggesting that someone has said they only want females represented in video games? Because no one in this thread (or elsewhere) has argued that.

It's strange to see how so many men get downright defensive (and that's putting it lightly) when someone suggests that women should be represented more in video games (or any medium). It's a raging frothy mixture of entitlement, misogyny, and projection.
