Weirder? That the director for "God of War" is complaining about sexism, or that he's tweeting random prom photos? https://t.co/gO78ocZmZm

Meet video game director David Jaffe who told his 50,000+ Twitter followers that this awesome photo of some kids enjoying prom dressed as superheroes was “sexist.”
As a comicGeek,I so want 2 love this prom picture.But it's so grossly unaware of how sexist it is that I just can't. pic.twitter.com/n0H4Ni13Mg

You see, it’s sexist because the men are “heroes” in “serious thought” while the women are “subservient” and “all smiles”:
.@MShaneman The men as heroes, the women as subserviant. Not a single female hero. The men serious/in thought, the women only all smiles.

Give us a break.
But then he really went off the rails and dropped the KKK card for some reason:
@LAME_STREET @MShaneman I'd imagine the Klan was 'into it' when they lynched people. Doesn't make the act any less racist/horrific.

So 5 young ladies decide that they want to willingly participate in this photo with matching dresses and that’s the same as the Klan lynching somebody? Nope:

But he does give the kids permission to have sex on prom night, so there’s that:
People wud B surprised to learn I'd be fine if these kids were CONSEUNTIALLY FUCKING EACH OTHER in the prom picture. People so quick2attack.

How nice of him.
Jaffe is “sad,” however, that some people have been mean to him for comparing a prom picture to a KKK lynching:
AMAZED and actually kind of sad about how MEAN SPIRITED some people have been on my twitter feed tonite. I posted a thought on a prom pic

that I feel/felt was sexist and while there was SOME interesting discussion, so much of it was bile and hatred and cruel and so downright
