Why the women of Skyrim are better than women of today

[LJ_Reloaded]

I've been playing this game for a day now and one thing pops out at me:

The women in this game will draw a sword just as fast as the men, to protect their property and family. No woman talks about hiding behind her man and waiting for him to fight for her life or honor.

Contrast that to Terra Firma. How many Spartan women ever went to war?


Yeah, it's just a pathetic little video game... but there is no denying that the world would be a better place if even 10% of women were as stand-up as they demand their men to be.

I still ain't deep down feelin' the escapism concept of games, but now at least I get the concept of escapism on a logical level.

At least none of them got abandoned to die at birth. Just so you know.

On Skyrim, no one knows you are 14 year old boy with the breasts of a Goddess.

Contrast to Terra Firma:

How many Russian women went to war in WWII? (Including as combat pilots, snipers, etc.)

How many Israeli women are in their armed forces?

How many US women served in the war effort during WWII?

How many UK women served in the war effort during WWI and WWII? (Including as AA gunners? and as Covert agents in Occupied Europe?)

How many civilian women were killed in WWII?

Very true.. why would they want to throw away their baby making machines

in fact, it was common practice to reward the "services" of their wives to other soldiers of Sparta in order to continue making babies


in any case, Skyrim rocks.... I've got a super archer wood elf.. most fights ( with the exception of dragons) are over before they start with her

Baby making machines, you call it, eh? It's better than being murdered as a baby.

Still better than being thrown off the side of a mountain as a baby.

Jeez. You always have to ignore the plight of men.

The women of Skyrim are hot. Especially Delphine.

Actually the programmers seriously dropped the ball on the appearance of people in this game, and I mean seriously.

This is why so many people are scrambling with add-ons to fix the looks of people in Skyrim.

I'm guessing it was mostly due to the number of women who died in childbirth. You figure she had about a 25% or greater chance of dying each time she gave birth. Made them, for want of a better word, valuable commodities.

Actually, I found what must be a shithouse, in one of them caves. A hole in the ground with a bucket.

Someone shoulda told that to the people of ancient China and India...

Mind you they were worse than Sparta, to their baby girls. Karma is late in coming to those cultures.

Close to a million. Some as young as 16.


Just sayin'

okay, fine.. you want more historical accuracy

after the children were born , it was Spartan custom to bathe the children in wine..if they survived they were then taken to the priests..the male priests.. who then decided if the child was fit enough or deformed

if they werent fit enough or any imperfection.. the male priests would then throw the kid off a mountain


Jeez. You always have to ignore the plight of accuracy

And how does this contradict my claim that baby boys, not girls, were thrown off the mountain?

Why do you never ever care about what happens to males?

Because it wasnt limited to boys.... please take note of where I claimed it only happened to boys

why do you never care about happens to accuracy?

That's why Le Jerque had to weasel out of jury duty. So he could spend an entire day playing Skyrim.

Now you're spouting pure horseshit.

Everyone's entitled to their own opinion

doesnt change the facts though.. Spartans were universally nasty

 

[Mike_Yates]

They've already made a nude mod for Skyrim
