Paint, Pixels and Porn: Why the Freakout over Sex in Anime, Manga and Video Games?

22 October 2012 by 1 Comment
chapter34credits

It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single person in possession of a good sex drive must be in want of some porn. However little known the feelings and urges of such a person may be on his/her/hir first entering the Internet, this truth is so well fixed in the minds of the surrounding Google ads, YouTube providers and email spammers that his/her/zhe’s pants (and contents thereof) are considered the rightful property of some one or other of their “SEE HOT LESBIANS” requests. In … [Read more...]

5 January 2011 by 3 Comments

I'm eventually going to be playing in a Dresden Files RPG campaign. We rolled up characters and have a wiki, but being a group of busy adults that live all over the DC metro makes it hard for us to find the time to actually... y'know... play. Before I had even started reading the novels - I'm on book 9, BTW, so NO SPOILERS (other than the ones I've already heard... *sigh*) - my wonderful boyfriend, DaveTheGame announced that I would want to be a White Court Vampire. I raised an eyebrow. Then … [Read more...]

Whether you are an outsider looking in on the strange world of anime fandom or a hardened veteran of too many Naruto-vs-Dragon-Ball wars, chances are you've heard of it in your travels: yaoi. Sometimes it's defined clearly, sometimes it's said with a scratched head and a funny look, and very often it is spat out along with words like, “fangirls”, “smutty fanfics,” and “crazy anime weeaboos.”  But what exactly is yaoi? Well, who better than a fangirl who isn't into yaoi but hangs … [Read more...]

Ask Y: To Fetish Or Not To Fetish

Male Submissive Online Dating Profile

Dear Y, I'm a straight male with a submission fetish. Ideally, I'd like to find a lady who's willing to explore it with me, but it seems a bit tawdry to put on my OKCupid page, for example. Do I just need to roll the dice and wait to get to know my dates before asking them if they'd be cool with it? Or is there a way I can be more upfront about it without it being an utter turnoff? - Fetish Guy Dear Fetish Guy, I'd like to begin by commending you on your ability to state your game and … [Read more...]

Paws for Reflection: On The Furry Fandom

2 October 2010 by 12 Comments

In my replies to comments about my “Nothin’ in My Closet” article, I outed myself…bum bum BUM! Well, you all already knew I was gay, and a geek, so I outed myself as a Furry! *gasp!* That didn’t seem to make you all stop reading my pieces, so maybe some of the stigma has died down. In fact, the redoubtable E asked if I’d be willing to write a piece on being a Furry. Since I’m always glad to advocate for a fandom I’m part of, I said yes. How I Became a … [Read more...]

What’s Love Got To Do With It, Part V: Romance As Plot Device

16 September 2010 by 3 Comments

Love is, as we all know, an important and integral part of human existence. It even goes beyond humanity – some animals mate for life, after all. Yes, technically speaking, romance is not essential to procreation and the furthering of the human race, but it certainly makes it all a lot more worthwhile. The quest to find true love is a common one, and it’s not always easy (if it was, GDG wouldn’t exist!). There can be lots of bumps in the road and obstacles to overcome, be they the … [Read more...]

Ask Y: Going From Dating to Exclusive

3 September 2010 by 1 Comment

Dear Y, I've been dating this girl for a few weeks now and really like her.  We're going out at least 2 or 3 nights a week and have started to get physical. But I'm not sure how to start the conversation about whether we're "exclusive" or "official" or "going steady" etc.  Do you have any advice on how to broach the subject? - Is She "My Girl?" Dear ISMG, There comes a time in every relationship when the dreaded question must come up... "Are we exclusive?" How though, do you GET … [Read more...]

What’s Love Got To Do With It, Part IV: Your Taboo Is My Vanilla

18 August 2010 by 4 Comments

We’ve already established that romantic elements in your game can be as simple or as complex as you want them to be, from as little as brief flirtation to fully detailed bedroom scenes. Likewise, the amount of detail you put into your campaign notes about the norms of love and sex in your game world can range from broad-brushed statements to outlines and flow charts. Even if romance gets no more than a passing mention in your game, it’s worthwhile to establish some standards. Why? Because … [Read more...]

Ask Y: Are Geek Guys Sexually Immature?

6 August 2010 by 13 Comments

Dear Y, A few months ago a met a geek. I was totally excited cause he was into all the same things: movies, video games, sci-fi, staying in rather than going out, he had a toy collection, light sabers, Star Wars, all that stuff. And he was actually funny and cute. He was the closest I'd met to someone I could actually see myself in a relationship in like 3 years. But then he told me he had no sex drive (and I saw his tiny tiny child sized bed... total turn-off). I broke things off … [Read more...]

What’s Love Got To Do With It, Part III: Roll For Random Sexual Encounter?

22 July 2010 by 9 Comments

You’ve decided to add some love to your campaign, and have figured out how much, and how it’s going to be played. Now open the Pathfinder Core Rulebook to page 242 and… Wait. There really aren’t rules for this kind of thing in the Pathfinder Core Rulebook. Or the DMG. Or any game master’s guide. No problem, you can pick up any of the third-party products out there and… Wait again. Rules for sex and love? Srsly? Do we need rules for this? In my years as a gamer, this seems to … [Read more...]
