Talk:Miss Bimbo

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This game has been receiving tough criticism for its pushing of body image to a young female traget audience. Saw it on one of the morning "news" programs here in Aus.--ZayZayEM (talk) 11:07, 26 March 2008 (UTC) [Link http://www.news.com.au/technology/story/0,25642,23429160-5014117,00.html]

[edit] Bias in the Article

I thought that this article appeared very clearly biased. I'm a 23 year old Miss Bimbo player, and I'll admit that I logged on due to the controversy. I expected to be horrified by the game. However, despite the emphasis on beauty, players are also strongly encouraged to train for jobs, study at the library, and otherwise improve their lives.

I'm not saying the game is perfect, but it isn't as bad as the article is making it out to be. According to the MSNBC article "Don't Blame Miss Bimbo," a lot of the players on Miss Bimbo are older. I know a lot of people who are playing the game that are in their mid twenties.

Although plastic surgery is a definite option, it isn't necessary to move up. What is necessary is getting a job, feeding your character, buying clothes, renting an apartment, and other parts of real adult life. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.133.94.159 (talk) 03:10, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

Anyways, apparently the whole point of the website was satire. They're making fun of bimbos... I think. Serpentine17ice (talk) 06:49, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
