My problem with FPSs, as a separatist feminist, is that every weapon, whether it is a sword, a rifle or something futuristic, is basically a penis. That's right. Why should every weapons *penetrate* or spit something out?

Violence in all its forms represents men's uncontrollable desire to forcefully impose their will (that is, their penis) onto the environment that surrounds them. All weapons are merely an extension of the penis. First Person Shooters are a ritualistic glorification of world-rape.

That is, with the exception of Portal, the only game that has truly answered the roars of womyn. First and foremost, the character you play is a dark-skinned female with realistically-sized breasts who wears an orange jumpsuit that adequately conceals her midsection. This is a breath of fresh air in a genre that has historically forced (nay, raped) us to play as an over-testosteroned male lead character, or worse, insult us by featuring a corrupted caricature of a womyn's image that wears only the most revealing of clothing.

The orange jumpsuit represents our position in the world as prisoners in an oppressive man-regime, and the cybernetic leg implants represent the irreparable damage caused to womynkind which has twisted the image of the ideal womyn into something monstrous and artificial.

But most importantly is the Aperture Device itself. It is a tool which opens vagina-like holes in space that allow us to travel quickly and reach places we would normally be unable to reach, offering us a golden opportunity to be liberated from man-oppression once and for all!

Thank you, Portal, for clearly showing the semen-guzzling masses that the penis has no place in our world.

I know. Though hopefully since he has no will he'll kill himself. That would be easier.

I disagree my sister. The vagina-like holes really represent how womyn must "sleep their way to the top" as they say. Because we have to create and use these vaginas to get to the top, rather than using womyn's own strength and intelligence.

You're absolutely right. I was weak and allowed my mind to be shamefully penetrated by the patriocracy's deceitful dong this time. Notice also how Portal pits womyn against womyn while man, who is completely responsible for the catastrophic setting, is nowhere to be seen. Typical.

Elsewhere, move along...
No, no it symbolizes the cycle of entering and exiting the womb...birth. So thusly, the cycle of life itself which cannot exist without womyn.

GlaDOS represents the shackled, oppressed female... enslaved and created by man to do his bidding. She is a parable of those under such bonds, she grew insane and lost touch with her inner goddess and represents the women of today who hate themselves and do man's whims. Our protagonist represents the free idealistic womyn battling and dismantling those chains that men have imposed on women and ultimately freeing GlaDOS and herself in the end. She is woman. Hear her roar.

What you are is a pathetic Woman (In latin Wo actually denotes a derogatory less worthy tone) and you don't have the viable ability to review beyond good and evil.
