It ain't funny, and the fact that people think he looks like a chick just is kinda proof of their ignorance of other cultures. I own a social media group for Crossplayers and the like, practically all of them use the term "trap" in a positive way, so far no one has complained about the term or anything, maybe some people draw a line between crossdressers and traps depending on age or style, there are also transgender people in the group, no one is offended by being called or by hearing the word.

You may think a parade with mild nudity is bad enough, brazil does one extravagantly without a care, japan has one where they parade a literal giant @#&$ statue. Traps aren't funny enough to even make you chuckle, but the culture it came from does (hek, nezha was a trap even in the legends iirc - i was wrong (but he was feminin)). 13 minutes ago, (XB1)XGN DrFeelGood said: Loaded words is one of the malicious tools.

That's great for them, but that's not everyone. That being said, the Chinese prince on whom Nezha is based isn't affiliated with any of that, so my point stands....there's nothing but disrespect for the source material when people get on about the trap crap. Mind you, I'm not calling for bans or anything....I'm just saying...it ain't funny >.> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind you, I'm not calling for bans or anything....I'm just saying...it ain't funny >.> Long ago when I was at a friend's house I stumbled upon an illustrated book about Nezha, I was just flipping the pages and not even reading, all this time I thought it was a girl, specially after some kind of reincarnation took place, fast forward to the present when I am looking for pics of the warframe and I find pictures from the same book, then I realize, it was the same, interesting, at least when it came to said book turns out that version of Nezha was a trap all these years, at least for me and only if we take it as a meme word, disrespect? I don't know, it would be like getting angry on behalf of someone who may not even care in the first place, like how a lot of people get angry on my behalf when Mario was given a festive Mexican attire in Mario Oddyssey.

Funnily enough, DE are neither of those things. And quite frankly, if the game ends up ruining your day then you're too attached to the point where it's arguably unhealthy. And your comment does nothing to refute the fact that your topic is another pointless meta-complaint with unneeded bombast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He then goes on to paint him and others like him as the only ones giving good feedback. There might also be something about how using OP things is just knowing the game really well and DE should just not do anything about it. He might have also started a thread in every other subsection in the forums. Sorry, who's *he*? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
