Vagina Hero. Classy. At least it's not called "Pussy Hero", they actually used the correct term.
Came across this while checking out some video games. Apparently it's some kind of joke...yah cause its.."funny".
Anyway, I thought it was real cause in japan they actually HAVE virtual sex games with sex toys for your PS3/2 etc.
I don't really consider this appalling, nor funny. I think it'd be useful in getting a guy to understand how to pleasure a woman correctly (if the game was made properly, preferably by a woman)
I guess it sort of freaked me out at first cause I realized we are getting very close to this kind of...leisure activity...becoming mainstream. Anyways, what do you think?

You mean its just an icon?
Dude, they have made over 9000 parodies of the guitar hero logo. Cello hero, oboe hero, whatever hero you can think of. Old meme is old.
Also, how is it sexist? I kind of missed that part.

If it were to be about pleasing women, it should be "Vulva Hero," Because not every woman gets much pleasure out of only giving attention to the vagina.
I was about to make almost exactly the same point.
It's not just a logo. If this is real, it's a video game that uses a controller meant to be shaped like a woman's disembodied genitals.
It's not real. The article claims that it's being made by "Arctivision", "a completely different publisher" from the Guitar Hero publisher (which is Activision) -- they would get sued big time for copyright infringement. Plus most publishers don't/won't make porn games, since there's a good chance the games will be banned in certain countries, and many stores would refuse to sell them in countries where they're not banned. A lot of people still think of console games as being a kid's thing, plus they're interactive, so the rules tend to be stricter for videogames than movies.
No, this is some poor, sad man's attempt at a joke. The controller is supposed to be funny because, lolol, it's so confusing and hard to figure out, kind of like a real woman's vulva (i.e., he is bad in bed).
Oh, I meant trademark infringement, but probably both. :3
This is an old "joke" that I hoped had died a well-deserved death from lack of attention. It's been mentioned on Feministing before, too.
it has? oh wow, I checked it in the search and didn't find it.
@eletric
yah that was what I was feeling "its sooo confusing it's kind of like a real one har har"
stupid.
but I thought it was real as well and had to read the whole thing until I saw it was a "joke". It rattled my feminist self so I thought I'd share it. And whoever said it wasn't sexist. Really? Check again.
