Yes, it's nearly as silly as boob armour (which is directing the hit rather towards the heart than away from the body...).
The amount of muscle mass on the upper body of those guys is even more ridiculous, since they would be slow as snails with this and useless in constant traveling and inefficient in combat. We had a discussion about this in another thread.

Beginning with a boys-only-giveaway wouldn't have changed anything for me, I would have written exactly the same stuff but nobody would have read it, because the outrage of rabid feminists would probably have been so huge, that the thread would have had 10 pages in the first two hours.
BTW:
Biologically, men are naturally tending towards misandric behaviour, because they have to make a good impression on the woman (potential mating target) and shove away their competition as well.
I refuse to live this, since I try to be more advanced than the average caveman although I got the hormones.
Most of the guys speaking up for feminism are enourmously underf*****, sad but true, so beware of your friends rather than your enemies, dear feminists.
Anyway:
+1 for being consistent and going on with this giveaway,
although I REALLY hope, nobody does something similar to this in the future, you always have to worry about giving the wrong people bad ideas.

ddickinson: I do not consider the Larry games sexist. I know many do, but I think of them more of a parody of sexism. After all, the main character is a pathetic and desperate little man.
I aggree. ET3D: The only muscle-bound man I find somewhat bothering is Superman. He's supposed to be strong at the cellular level, and yet he's often depicted as if he's lifting planets all day long.
[nerdmode] Actually, Superman is strong on a telekinetic level. Telekinesis is his main treat and his invulnerability is not due to a steel like body, but thanks to a telekinetic forcefield with which he surrounds himself all the time. When he lets it down (which he nearly never does), he can do weird stuff with his mind similar to Charles Xavier, so his pumped up muscles are even more silly. [/nerdmode] Nroug7: The pessimists cup is half full, the optimists cup is half empty. Funny how alcoholic beverages work.
You forgot the third faction: Realists http://www.lolroflmao.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/3LMKq.jpg
ddickinson: would you still be against this thread if there was no giveaway? If I had simply hosted a discussion asking the female gamers here to discuss their gaming choices, would this have been any different? If I had asked for only the women to respond because I valued their opinions, but offered no prizes, would that be any different?
Perhaps if I had started with the men's giveaway first and the women's after, there would probably not be an issue, would hosting the men's first have been different?
No giveaway and just talk wouldn't have annoyed anyone, I think. Perhaps if I had started with the men's giveaway first and the women's after, there would probably not be an issue, would hosting the men's first have been different?
