I'm sorry, what did I miss here?
Not fighting with your girl is sexist and... IDK. I'm confused as well.
Oh, you think only men can be the bad person in this situation?
You assume a cis relationship?!
Considering the person I replied to assumed a cis relationship, I rolled with their assumption, but if you looknat my other comments theybare gender biased.
Recheck the comment please, they didn't mention any gender other than "girl". You filled in the other gender.
Getting upset that your romantic partner doesn't chase you to apologise is childish. Retaliation for not behaving in a way you want them to crosses the line. Both of which are demonstrated in this meme.
Should the person starting the PlayStation have done what they have done? Fucked if I know, as it's situational. But the emotional manipulation thats incoming (or physical violence towards the gamer or their equipment) is heavily implied.
And that's only if the argument was for something minor.
I think you're right that it is childish, I'm not sure if I would call it abuse though.
I assume you're basing the abuse argument on the WWE logo in the corner. Everyone who didn't notice that (me included, at first) just see a girl with a "how dare he?" look on her face. Which is actually pretty funny.
In case you're wondering where all the downvotes are coming from.
Yeah, like, I noticed the WWE logo right away but assumed that was simply where the image of the woman was sourced from, and not intended as part of the joke. I didn't take any physical violence tones from it at all.
The Woman wanting to be chased is definitely childish, and possibly emotional manipulation, but I don't think it's intentional manipulation. At least, there isn't enough context in the images alone to say that with certainty. Definitely a bit of a leap.
I think you're also over analysing and the other person is, simply put, an idiot.
That would make the top comment make a lot more sense
I'm basing it off the trope that the guy starts to play a game and the "I'm in danger" quote.
It speaks to the fact that the gamer is probably doing the right thing and letting emotions cool, where the non gamer is upset at those actions and is in the first stage of an emotional or physical interaction that crosses the line.
Didn't really pay attention to the watermark.
