And...? So this game tries to cater to two different crowds. A game trying such thing doesn't mean these two are the same people. Just like games which have paths for NTR and NTS address different interests of different folks.
3. The most important one, because mfers pushing the virginity retardation are always, 10 out 10 times going for the mom fucked dad joke/gotcha when its clear that virginity has fuck all to do with peoples issues.
I think people mainly go for these jokes because it clearly triggers (some) harem people and make them go malding how "no this is absolutely not about virginity, i'm just deathly allergic to learning a character had sex with someone other than my MC, this is crucial difference, see".
Funny you should use an example that perfectly proves my point, what does the clothing shops flashback scene in SL add narratively?
Funny you would think this proves
your point, where the actual point was that the uproar was about entirely optional scene that people who "just don't want to see it" simply
didn't have to see. But merely knowing that the completely optional scene was there was enough to send them into frenzy. Which hardly matches the claims how "it's not about sex itself, it's about having to see it".
Its such a weird hill to die on, I think for whatever reason you made this group your mortal enemy and instead of blocking the 10-15 extreme accounts, you instead project them into the entire spectrum. Its actually bizarre, becasue I've seen you around the forums a lot and this is the first topic where I cannot find logical reason for why you insist on this easily disprovable take.
Hmm i think i see the possible issue here -- the thing is, i'm not projecting the extreme on the entire spectrum. I'm talking specifically about the extremes. I suppose you may thus feel wrongly included and accused of things which aren't true
for you, and this is the source of your objections?
I am known among the friends group as the guy that always goes for the bad bitch, if I cared about virgins, Quinn, Riona, Camila, Sage, Bella, Nicole wouldn't be in my top 10. Hell, of the top of my head the only virgin I actually like is Layla from Intertwined, so, think about it, if I am making this argument its because the disingenuous nature of the discourse.
OK, so you specifically don't care about characters having sexual experience. Then, consider this, maybe this discussion doesn't apply to you, but to those folks who actually are bothered about characters having previous sex
way more than you are? You don't need to bat for them in this case, they can fight their own fights if they feel so inclined.
To use your christians analogy, this seems sort of like a situation where a person talking about fundies calls them simply christians, but this cause a non-fundie feel wrongly portrayed, but they counter this not with acknowledging the existence of actual spectrum, but instead push back with "all christians are actually very reasonable folks (because i, personally, am)"
I suppose i could switch to using "the allegedly fringe group of harem enjoyers who are overly sensitive to any mention of sex with characters other than MC", instead of simply "harem enjoyers" if that makes things better and help you feel not swept up with the radicals? It's a bit of a mouthful, though.
