In real life, women are made to feel insecure about their bodies.
This is fantasy. What she draws is fantasy. We both know the difference between fantasy and real life.
Why are you having trouble grasping the distinction?
Quote:So, these images contribute to womens' self image problems, and aren't necessary for men to enjoy the game. Seems like case closed to me.
It doesn't to me. It sounds to me like these are two separate issues. One can look at beautiful women without playing a game. One can play a game without looking at beautiful women.
And what you keep missing is that fantasy shouldn't contribute to anyone's self-image problems. Know why? Because it's fantasy.

Celibacy = awesome, if that capability is given to you. For everyone else:
Marriage = rut like rabbits so that you don't fall into temptation
I'm fairly accustomed to obtuse apologist interpretations to make scripture say what they want it to say.
I read what's there.
What's there is
Celebacy = What you should do
Marriage = OK, if you can't control yourself, that's second best.
