What new contest did EA dream up? Take pictures of yourself performing “acts of lust” with their booth babes – and win prizes.
This is completely disgusting. In an industry that already gets a bad rep for being misogynistic, sexist, and objectifying women – we are seeing this? Very poor form EA, very poor indeed.
And no, this isn’t about “the poor booth babes”. They are being paid to do this, and knew full well what they were getting into. Edit: I re-read. Apparently it’s “any” booth babe, not just theirs. It’s bad enough that the whole booth babe concept exists in the first place, but now there is a contest to take pictures of yourself being disgusting with them? Why must companies make such awful decisions in order to make money?
I don’t really know what to say. I am pretty upset by this.
