The Vagina Gamerlogues

The Vagina Gamerlogues were an instant hit when they first appeared on the internet way back in 2003. The original writer (now contributing to Lesbian Gamers) has given permissions for these acerbic / insightful articles–about female gaming–to be published at Lesbian Gamers. We’re pleased to say she will also be writing additional Vagina Gamerlogues with a lesbian slant especially for us.

What is it like to be a lesbian / female gamer in the world of video games? This question and others are examined and spat out in a tongue in cheek manner by our very own Miss Ann Thropic (yes writer of our article Video Gaming Tips for Lesbians).

 

ACT 1 – Be My Bitch & Come to Daddy was originally written back in 2003 when Xbox Live was still a relatively new phenomenon. This Vagina Gamerlogue is seething due to the sheer amount of negative experiences Miss Ann Thropic had in those early games of the service.

 

ACT 2 – Boys Will Be Boys was originally written back in 2004 and sees Miss Ann Thropic wax non lyrical about how she’s looked upon in a more negative light than her male counterparts, all for the love of gaming. This Vagina Gamerlogue is part social commentary, part rant and should be read as though it were a spoken Alix Olsen song… you know what we mean ladies.

 

ACT 3 – Premenstrual Gaming was originally written back in 2004 and apparently caused quite the stir when it was published. Given that was then and this is now, we’re assuming that has blown over and Miss Ann Thropic has kindly updated the article for us with a brief explanation of what happened post first publication.

 

ACT 4 – Pixilated Bra Burning Goes Tits Up was originally written around 2006 and brings into question the double ended meaning a character like Lara Croft can bring to the gaming table. The article also cheekily questions the unattainable body and feminist reactionary comments.

We’ll be adding to this archive as new gamerlogues are posted.
