I dislike how the term "feminist" got so skewed in today's society (though this isn't only recent) that it's like practically lost its meaning thanks to misconceptions.

I'm a feminist because I'm a person that strives for equality for both genders in society. There may be some feminists that hate men, but that's irrelevant because it has nothing to do with feminism itself -- feminism is about gender equality. It's those extremists that get on people's nerves, yeah?

I thought Little Mac getting angry at Samus was adorable actually, they way he got all red and all lol.

That's the thing. The joke refers to how he's little (get it? It's funnynot really) compared to Samus (not to mention a throwback to Brawl). It's just people over-analyzing and jumping to conclusions.

Reminds me of people were somehow complaining how Kristoph wasn't of color because he's Sami.

SJW don't know ****.

I used to be anti-racist for most of my life. But then I grew up and realized it stood for anti-White bigotry and racial vengeance against "the oppressor"

Hopefully America's left-wing society, media, and the ideologies of left-wing creationism/genetic egalitarianism and social justice will be thrown in the dustbin of history sometime during my lifetime. I doubt it though.

And yes, I'm fully aware pretty much all of you are left-wing.

As a non-American, much of this went over my (pin)head.

Not to get too heavy into political discoursing, but if anyone could clarify this right-wing/left-wing demarcation, it would be appreciated (and then I'd be able to see where I might fit along this spectrum).

I can.
Left-wing and Right-wing are political parties in America.
Left-wing prefers more government, where Right-wing focuses on less.
And, naturally, you have your extremes. Which is what he's referring too.

Are you familiar with American political parties? Left-wing = Democrats, Right Wing = Republicans, at least in theory.

Some people try to substitute the words Liberal and Conservative for Left and Right wing respectively, but I don;t think that fits since there are many right-wing policies which are not conservative(i.e. expanding the military, regulating/legislating morality).

(For the record: liberal - more of something, conservative = less of something)

If it aint bosom goodness or mostly KI related, I can't really do much. Bowser is okay too. Unfortunately I prefer to avoid the kind of topics I'm reading up there for personal reasons.

As a gay man.

I personally boycott everything.

Too much straight assholes in everything.

I don't even know why I'm on this ****ing website. Not a single gay character in Smash Brothers.

**** Smash Brothers I'm out until they add Tingle.

And yes I'm aware Tingle's straight in his spin-off. Shh.

Sorry if this sounds off topic and I know its still too early, but if Smash Bros. Wii U makes it in fighting tournament scenes like EVO, do you guys think SSB Wii U will be a success?

Technically feminism is treating women equal to men.

And alas, most of us treat female characters no different than male characters.

Personally, the only characters I segregate against are the orange ones. Sorry guys, but I am prejudice against the color orange. :smirk:

In Canada, you have the Conservative Party and the Liberal Party as the primary political groups (followed closely by the New Democratic Party). Easier to remember where they stand, this way. :p

I'm horrendously uninformed when it comes to political ideologies; the level of my ignorance is probably embarrassing. I'll need to figure out where I stand on all these political/economic/social issues at some point.

In any case, thanks for the informative reply. Let us now resume the Great Discourse of the Smash.

I'm not part of the competitive scene, but I figure that any widescale exposure of the game would work in its favour. But I imagine that the efforts of the Wii U (/3DS) fanbase would be vital in pushing SSB4 into mainstream competitive popularity.

That's more or less the joke behind it, most people know Marth is guy, or at least I sinercely hope that's the case and it's not actually serious.
