Seriously, gamers. Enough is enough.

We, the female gamers of the world, are FUCKING tired of this.

Who in the world thinks this could possibly be anything but a sexist, classist clusterfuck?

No, this is not sexy. No, this is not funny. It is demeaning and rage-inducing. A pregnancy tracking sheet? Really? It's like a bad Youtube satire of playing with girls. "Roll to see if you're menstruating!" Filling in your bust and waist measurements on your character sheet? Really?

We are more than our genitalia. We want to play characters who are more than their genitalia. We want you to respect that we're fully-fledged human beings. Why on earth is that so difficult?

*Disclaimer: the men I play with, to the best of my knowledge, will all see this as just as jaw-droppingly disgusting as I do. That's one reason I continue to play with them.

I see someone is trying to one-up FATAL (http://www.rpg.net/reviews/archive/14/14567.phtml). While also misogynistic and racist and several other -ists, FATAL also made you roll for penis length and girth. And...yeah, it was horrible. I wish I could find a link to the old review of it, but it seems to have disappeared.
