to be upset those bizarre GTA threads were troll work...

[DropYourSword]

...and not in fact the genuine thoughts of an extremely bizarre so called feminist!

I was sure they were fake, but still disappointed at the same time because they made my jaw drop

Which threads?

Can't link, they've been deleted. OP was claiming to be upset about how one of the characters could use a prostitute and then steal the money back which she said was then technically rape. BUT didn't seem to have an issue with murder, drugs, theft etc. And started quoting MN We Believe You campaign.

That's not rape. That's theft.

Oh blimey! I thought all the schools had gone back now.

Of an imaginary character in a computer game.

It is pretty graphic and unpleasant in the game, to be honest. I don't know which one it is (my brother used to play it) but there's a bit when you can go into a pole dancing club and watch a pixelated woman gyrate. It's weird.

This is an extract from Carolyn Petit, Editor of Gamespot on the new GTAV

...On a less positive note, it’s deeply frustrating that, while its central and supporting male characters are flawed and complex characters, with a few extremely minor exceptions (such as the aforementioned optional getaway driver), GTA V has little room for women except to portray them as strippers, prostitutes, long-suffering wives, humorless girlfriends and goofy, new-age feminists we’re meant to laugh at.

Characters constantly spout lines that glorify male sexuality while demeaning women, and the billboards and radio stations of the world reinforce this misogyny, with ads that equate manhood with sleek sports cars while encouraging women to purchase a fragrance that will make them “smell like a bitch.” Yes, these are exaggerations of misogynistic undercurrents in our own society, but not satirical ones. With nothing in the narrative to underscore how insane and wrong this is, all the game does is reinforce and celebrate sexism. The beauty of cruising in the sun-kissed Los Santos hills while listening to “Higher Love” by Steve Winwood turns sour really quick when a voice comes on the radio that talks about using a woman as a urina

GTA is such a "meh" game, the graphics are "meh", the gameplay is "meh", the storyline is "meh", the only reason it sells as it does is because Rockstar are constantly trying to shock and be controversial. So they know it'll sell to the sad fucks who think they are being rebels by buying it.

My DH has it preordered and his boss and him are going to leave work tonight for the launch

To me a game is a game, it's rated 18 for a reason.

Little will surprise me after the 'Shaun Ryder wanking over a picture of Margaret Thatcher' scene......

The Sims 3 is rated 15. Not really sure why. Probably because they can woohoo in the shower, but it doesn't actually show anything.

I believe that one of the reasons the Sims 3 was rated so high was because it allowed for same sex marriage/ same sex woohooing, and there was a bit of a fuss at the time of release because of it.
