Comment on Sexualized video games are not causing harm to male or female players, according to new research
wellheh@lemmy.sdf.org 13 hours agoI’d argue James bond as a franchise is basically a hypermasculine fantasy and the gadgets are pretty much a tech fantasy within it. Breaking laws of physics is completely unrealistic, but the point I was making was that you don’t need to do any of these things- you could write a story about how you went to the gym and broke a treadmill (even though you didn’t) and it would be fiction. The bar to fiction is not that high.

Yes, it’s not a high bar at all. It just requires slight divergence with reality. Some degree of unreality, if you will.
