And it still doesn't change the fact that a mother isn't a stereotype. It goes with the assumption that women like to cook. =D Nor does it change the fack that you're a ****in' ass. ^_^Originally Posted by ocdan
You're an idiot. If you're making gender stereotypes, that's being sexist. Also, Nobody who cooks family meals everyday is gunna want to play a cooking game. Seems it may be more suitable for students who eat microwave meals everyday.Originally Posted by ocdan

And racism is, generally, hatred and discrimination against a race. So... No, your examples aren't racist, they're stereotypist. *Nod nod* Give it up, kid. You can't win against the man that has no brain, but somehow knows his facts. =DOriginally Posted by ocdan
And at the same time, how many mothers are gonna have a Wii?! Kinda like those hit or miss exercise games. It's an alright idea... just nothing special.Originally Posted by wiicanchangetheworld
WiiSports (obviously) / Redsteel / Excite Truck / TC:SO / Rayman RR / Wii Play / Sonic and the Secret Rings / Mad Catz Skinz
so then what the previous guys are saying isnt sexist, because what they are saying isnt in anyway deliberatly offensive, but stereotypicle because mothers have been so portrayed as being the houseworker, thats what is imagined by those when approached with a certain term, as in here, cooking.Originally Posted by Kumoriken

It is actually discrimination in a sense. *Nod nod* And it's actually quite funny that you can't actually spell, "Stereotypical", considering the fact that you're trying to define it. =DOriginally Posted by ocdan
