Yeah exactly, but also come on everyone, ecstasy is a drug that tends to make you want to fuck. So I think the ad -> sluttiness could be from, and I'm guessing here, that she's in a submissive pose that just so happens to be identical to a sexual one, taking a drug that makes one want to fuck, and that's her 'role' in this ad.
That said, you'll notice not a single person asking the woman who posted why she saw it that way, they just jumped to tell her she's wrong.
So @stufkes@lemmy.world , on behalf of men on lemmy, I'm sorry you got this reaction. I really hope at least one person in this thread goes "Wait... I don't see it as problematic, but someone else does. Maybe I should understand why?"
I should not have replied to her but kept to myself.
I don't care about the ad, never was a gamer, just stumbled in here via all.
The fact you have the wherewithal to say that means you're basically there already. A simple "Huh, why?" goes a long way.
You want me to ask why she feels that way about the ad? She already said why, i'm good thanks, not following this topic any longer.
