![]() At the same time, I wonder why it fascinates us so. The topic of a straight woman "queering" herself - or "Othering" herself - by exhibiting desire outside mainstream gender codes is worth exploring, and Shiller's exegesis is a good one. "The object she desires says something about her own sexual play and sexual orientation." "Juggling the object-of-desire's ambiguous sexuality is part of the straight fan's own gender performance," she writes. She concedes that "hot male bodies in action are a big part of the draw," but maintains there's more to this "female gaze" than meets the eye. What intrigues Shiller is the gender-bending identification that leads straight women to bond with the love lives of overtly gay male characters (some of whom are played by straight men, which adds yet another layer to the conundrum). It isn't news - at least in the circles I travel in - that men aren't the only ones who enjoy the visual aspects of the mating game. The rest of the negative reaction broadly comes from people and pundits who reject not just the idea of representation, but the identities being represented themselves, and took the announcement as a cue for outraged soapboxing. The developer announced that the new David King story will establish that he identifies as gay, not just that he's gay. That would indeed be weird, but it isn't the case. "Corny pandering honestly."Ī number of negative or confused reactions also came from people who weren't aware that the announcement coincided with a new David King story-or weren't aware that Dead by Daylight contained backstories at all, like me about an hour ago-and therefore thought that the developer consulted with GaymerX just to write a blog post which states that a character is gay. Like I'm gay and I'm not saying gay men can't be hypermasculine fighting addicts but it just feels sooo out of place," said one player. "He's literally a stereotypical British chav who'd probably brag about his success with women in pubs. Some would have preferred that a new character had been introduced, with one argument being that it isn't impossible to think that David King was chosen at random as a token gay character, given his existing backstory. ![]() Other fans felt the announcement was tacky, pandering, or didn't go far enough. ![]() ![]() The kind that advertise private viewing booths for when the laptop is busted and the WiFi is out and the lock on your bedroom is broken and the bathroom is in use and your imagination is unable to conjure up anything and… you get what I'm getting at. They're sex shops, like the ones you could once find in Times Square. Sunset Video, Video City, Candy Hookah Love, Golden DVD-the names are different, but they're all the same inside. Along on a stretch between 39th and 24th Streets, there are eight of these shops, a rate of nearly one per block. Underneath the Gowanus Expressway, in an area generously included in Sunset Park but really not much more than a detritus-strewn, completely forgotten, and rarely traversed stretch of 3rd Avenue, sit a curious collection of shops, glass windows and brick walls routinely rattled as 18-wheelers hurtle by just 10 feet above. |
