We women don't want to play a game that brands itself in this way, nor do we want to play with other players that come looking for ****, or have to deal with their rage when they find out it isn't .
    That's a good point.

    I don't know if any of you ever seen MoriEndi's funny play on the ads where she added huge bulging packages of men to the pics and said "Come Play My Lady."

    I know there's kind of a double standard and all with how much women are flaunted in advertisements, but how would it make the male players feel if all the ads had nearly bare-naked men and huge packages of men.

    It would make you feel ummm... you know. Not that there's anything wrong with those of that sexual orientation. But for us folks that are heterosexual, your friends would see that ad and think you went to a gay site or something.

    So same goes with women. I feel bad if their friends and co-workers they were sharing with to play secretly saw those ads and immediately thought they were lesbian. Once again not that anything is wrong with that, unless the women are heterosexual.

    So I think these ads harm the women players the most.
