Not 5 digit USD prize money, not sponsorships from big corporations, not a hundred thousand people watching a tournament live. Nope, it's when chicks dig progamers. That's when you know SC2 is here to stay. SC2 is still so far behind BW in this regard I wish the GOM studio was constantly filled with screaming fan girls like it is for starleague.

Actually the only thing that is ridiculous is you, I think a women getting her breasts signed is a lot less degrading then in starcraft 1 where they always have sexy booth girls to boost rateings, now that is degrading , a women getting her tittys signed is no diffrent to me getting my ass signed , its all good fun... Just becuase you see 1 whore getting her tits signed at MLG doesn't mean that all us men are going to think less of women...or women gamers for that matter.
This happens in every sport in the world i bet, i don't see why you think that being a female gamer means that you have some special right to be treated diffrently.
And im sure the memory of getting her breasts signed would last her a lot longer then some piece of paper wow great. Now she has a nice story to tell.
"i hope idra stops raging, because other people will think that all pro gamers rage"
See how fucking silly that sounds?
Just think, if one whore getting her tits signed makes you so uneasy about female gamers .. Are you sure the internet is the right place for you?

The males responses to the 'dignified' females in this thread reminds me of OGfurious' sexist youtube video. lol

I really don't see what's so special about some progamers signing a girl/womans boobs.

You're kind of too late then. Compare photos of male gamers doing a shoot for a sponsor plugging their products to female gamers. The stark contrast is hilarious.
Pretty sad that you are thin skinned enough to let something like this thread offend you. Lol.
I agree with you that the chick who got her chest signed is a clown, but I don't agree with how you are trying to make a pointless stand in this thread.

That comment in particular bothered me. When a man looks at a woman, the first natural impulse is to judge their attractiveness. It doesn't matter what you do and how you look. It doesn't matter what clothing, what age, what boobs, or what's written on them. People go out of their way to dress to style, put on makeup, and make sure they are in general attractive. Naturally, all human beings, regardless of sex, want to appear attractive, and as a result become "sex symbols." Some people go about this in different ways.
Of course her actions were bound to start up some interesting discussions. It takes a certain person to actually do something like this in public, and I commend her for it. She is not afraid of who she is, and that is great. These types of stories help the spread of eSports, even in the most superficial of ways. Any publicity is good publicity. this is bound to show up on a number of popular communities with gaming inclinations.
If you truly want to be outraged by perceptions of women in the world, take a look at the situation in UAE. Women basically have zero rights. Realize that you are very fortunate to be apart of the western society where you wouldn't be sentenced to death for doing something like this.

You're getting a little too angry about this. Sorry, I wasn't involved in Brood War, so I'm sure there are much more degrading things that have happened.
Like I said, I can't win an argument with an almost all male population so I don't want to go any further. I was just more dissatisfied with the posts then the girl. If you don't see my feelings towards it then don't comment about them.

If I were HuK , I would "accidentally" drop the sharpie down her cleavage and then reach to get it back ^_^.

Oh gosh, I started too much. Please just disregard anything I've said. I've said I don't want to start any arguments about anything. I was just voicing my opinion and now I feel as if I'm being attacked about it. I'm no longer posting on this thread.

I wish there was a video of huks face after she asked him to sign her chest haha, good job HuK in America for a day and he's already ballin like a baller

I don't know about you but most gamers I've met recently have been skinny 20 something college students.
Not saying that these gamers are healthy eating the shit they eat, but if you're implying that they have weight issues themselves, I simply haven't seen it in the average gamer.
Now if you're talking about the average comic geek...

Sorry i thought this was a open discussion and i am not angry, Please don't assume <-- because you make a ass out of u and me,
ass-u-me
No but seriously OT
I'm not angry, i am just stating you are being utterly ridiculous, to the point where i ponder alternative motives.
The very fact that you get dissatisfied over male posts on the internet is what worrys me, thats why i questioned if the internet was the place for you. I thought all what i said was justified on how i think you potrayed the situation.

Those are definately boobs worth signing. Isn't there a full picture of her? (just curious!)

A photograph remembering an unique event for her might as well be just as good as having a piece of paper with an autograph, I don't see how you could say this is somehow more fleeting.

The girl with Huk/Destiny boobs did what she wanted to do, I don't care what any feminist/woman's lib person says about it. It was her decision, not theirs. She is free to allow anyone to write anywhere on her body, it is her body.

Woah...wait a minute...
How old are Huk and Destiny? Was this even legal?! :p
|
How did Huk reach? She must've laid on the floor.
