Since you are supposed to accept the idea that tolerance is a one way street and that censorship of entertainment for guys is progress but the same people will than tweet yaoi fan art of MHA characters. I used to think that it was just arrogance and double standards but it is also the negative perception of men which is a major issue with modern western culture.

Agreed, and the speculation that it was due to China looks like a convenient scapegoat.

[quote="Commander Cluck"]That's pretty amazing to see a Wii U game so high up and even doing better than a Switch game. |
Which is funny because it's still putting money in Sega and Nintendo's pocket regardless of what version gets bought, since as you know Japan doesn't have a used video game market.

People getting turned on by make-believe people/situations is any less absurd?

I can only speak for myself but I don't think anyone is boycotting Sega or Nintendo. They're just choosing to buy the not-censored version of the game. Not much different than when a multi platform game comes out and people buy the Switch version over the PS4 version because it's the version that isn't censored.

It's safe, no one gets hurt, you don't have to deal with the crippling depression of a messy break up and you can let your imagination go nuts.....i don't see the issue here. That's like criticizing people for getting turned on by 50 shades of grey or something...come on dude.

Same the issue is when people try to alter or dilute the creators original vision because they feel people might find it offensive. Spolier alert, if you waltz into any place and demanded that everything be changed just to satisfy you, guess what? You're a jerk, and nobody likes you. Leave it alone, and let the market decide whether it succeeds or not, if people don't buy it you'll never see it beyond that one instance.
Trying to force it to change to your sensibilities just makes like you look like a catholic from the 90's

So all those people talking about boycotting the Switch version of the game aren't essentially boycotting Nintendo?

Except some people do actually let their imaginations go wild in the real world especially when it comes to actual relationships.

Except 50 Shades Of Gray is a trashy book/film that people have criticized for how it handles the relationship of the two leads.....that's really not an example you should've used to make your point.
