I never understood this mentality, myself.
Gamers: "I never get laid... π©"
Also Gamers: "Women are just kitchen accessories."
because you think of "I never get laid" as a normal human need to connect with another person, which is what it is but they're too deep in misogyny to realize it. instead to them getting laid is a quest to complete and it involves a quest item known as a woman, not a character. so I never get laid has less of an undertone of "why can't I connect with a woman" and more of "when will we get our government mandated sex slaves"
You might have a career as a Halo 3 e-sports pro then!
I can buy a new toaster from the shop, why can't I buy a woman too? Does this mean Gamers are pro sex-work? Or pro indentured servitude for women more likely..
You cant pirate pussy, and we all know how gamers feel about subscription models.

Nylon? I would think this would be a 'print the moulds we use to pour in silicone' situation, if we're going for usability. https://formlabs.com/blog/casting-silicone-guide/ On an engineering note I'm also sure I've seen this exact thing before, but I wonder what would improve it. Self-heating? DIY solution could be a hidden pocket for reusable handwarmers lol
G*mers aren't known for being smart.
How does romance work in most video games? Select the correct dialogue options, memorize the correct answer to questions, give them the same gift every day?
The other main way a lot of young men βinteractβ with women is through porn, which is always made with a mind to what a woman would enjoy during sexβ¦/s
I understand it, but I don't think it applies.
Gamers tend to think of things as quests. A box to check off. A completionist. Getting married and having kids is part of life's quests for many people. It's not seen as collaboration in many ways.
