So if I'm female and wanted to go to Westworld


Can I be a gunslinger, or do I have to be a hooker because it'd be more 'realistic'? Same with the medieval world. Could I be a knight or would I have to be a slave girl?


Seeking a superhero for the end of the world.

It is possible that in the real West, you would have more opportunities as a woman alone to set up your own business. There was not much civilization and a fledgling town might welcome your business. The resistance may come from the civilization the develops around you, wanting to be "normal" and controlled by men.

None of this would interest the guests of Westworld.

Pack your penis! I think only men were gunfighters!

you could do whatever you wished, lady. YOU'd be "the guest".

screw stereotypes. screw traditional roles. men have destroyed the entire planet. why would any female vote for another one, unless she's got a death wish - and a few extras for her descendants.

^The correct answer.^

I think for what it would cost you could be whoever you wanted.

That took a sharp political turn.

You should vote based on merit, not race, gender, or creed. That being said, I'm not seeing any merit in US candidates.

You should vote
how you think is best, using the criteria that make sense to YOU and I SHOULD VOTE how I think is best, using criteria that seem most logical to me. Your post reveals your chauvinism and sadly, it seems that you don't even begin to see it.

And with humanity (historically ruled mostly by men) having destroyed the world for the survival of future generations, I personally am going to vote for whomever might be most likely to think differently. Whomever might be most likely to try to save us. In 2059, much of southern Florida will be under water. Look at predictive modeling maps online to see where the coastline closest to you will be under water. I believe women are more likely to consider their own grandchildren, in a mama bear way, and indeed ALL the leaders should be women, so that we get a chance to do what men have historically done - RULE THE WORLD. Since you have screwed it up so royally, what is the risk in giving us a chance to try to fix your epic disasters. Do vote how you think is best, but since you are a man, at least TRY to STOP telling us women how we should vote.

Applied to Westworld, the two founders, Robert and Arnold, created enough of a chauvinist world that the OP wondered what her possible place could be in it, as a guest. That is the same problem women face in the real world, with glass ceilings and men failing to realize that if you have literally RUN THE WORLD without our input until now, a little quid pro quo is not only in order, but you should shut up and be humble about it, because you wouldn't be GIVING US anything, merely BEGINNING to tip the scales toward equality and justice.

I feel I should quote the post I made and you are responding to for added clarity.

Please explain how what I said is chauvinistic in anyway.
I have a feeling you are mentally ill.

reply

She is a feminist which is equivalent to being mentally ill.

I noticed they made their crazy rant comment before the election. I have a feeling they are still crying because Hillary lost. I must admit, I do find joy in spastics like her and Zarni Joshi falling into melodramatic despair, despite not even having a dog in the race.

You be fücked by 10 different well-hung robots every day.

And you'd love it.

Here's a list of 9 notorious female outlaws of the Old West. They also included Bonnie Parker of Bonnie and Clyde fame, who was not exactly of the "Old West."

How is a hooker more "realistic"?

Women filled all manner of roles in the west. As another poster pointed out. Even gunfighters.

reply

No, that's not true. You might actually try doing some real research. Women were not gun fighters. Women had limited options back then.
