Ugh, another "women being sexualize by gamers" story that started on Twitter is spreading across the intertubes today. Everyone involved denies the story but the internet is jumping all over it any way.

"It would appear that the @mojang @notch party at GDC had women paid to be there to socialise with the largely male audience. That's horrid."

So basically, any women who would attend a Minecraft party must be whores, right? I mean, its not possible that women might want to attend the party on their own volition?

Who's the sexist now?

This is more double-standard feminist claptrap and frankly, I'm getting tired of it.
 
I remember the whole uproar about that guy who faked an injury to get creepy shots of booth babes at E3. Man we've come along ways since then. What's the end goal here? No sex thoughts whatosever and we must be puritanist?
 
Wow a bunch of homos commenting.

oooh it's creepy that women are paid to be here.

Oh wait you're a game developer, who I assume gets paid money for work? and you're there as a work related trip... aren't you being paid to be there too?
 
Sounds like they were halfway to a great party (only missing the blow)...
 
every guys whos tweeting about this wasnt able to score one of them... even paid...

HAHAHAHA
 
lol, maybe they were upset they couldn't get into VIP... that would seem logical

I gotta give him props for making money off songs which only contain about 3-4 notes.

I would done it too.

In today's world, less is more apparently.

Wikipedia laughably labels his "music" as house. I think Marshall Jefferson should pay him a visit.
 
music doesn't need "notes" to be enjoyable... I used to dig this tune that was just sampled pencil tapping... but mangeled in seriously dope ways... then there are times I like chopin...

Yea it's just really simple to write is all.

Try to write a song like one of chopin's... then try to write a song like one of skrillex's.

The latter i find quite easy to do.

You might be right:

You bring up another theory: maybe folks were so insulted by the tunez that they cooked up this girls-for-pay rumour!?
 
I'd say it is more likely they saw cheap booze, strobe lights, and a dance floor so they joined in. How do you think the eleventy-thousand night clubs in Vegas stay packed (..well besides the cheap booze).
 
smart, the nerd is an illusive creatue which can be much more effectively be conned out of all his it job paycheck by attractive women than men who actually know what they're talking about
 
So what if they paid some women to socialize with the guess? It's not like they are being forced to do it. Don't understand what's the big deal.
 
The woman deserve respect for what they do. Shaming them is SO WRONG! By forcing them into a underground scene only hardship and sorrow will follow.

Love the woman and respect them FFS.
 
don't forget wait staff... they are paid to "like" you so they can get a bigger tip... it's not all that different in this case, other then of course people might not know any better... and ya know, sometimes ignorance is bliss, especially if it's just some random person at a party
