Video game director David Jaffe managed to find a way to be offended at a lighthearted and fun prom picture.
The picture portrayed the young men as superheros and the young ladies as smiling sidekicks.
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

.@MShaneman The men as heroes, the women as subserviant. Not a single female hero. The men serious/in thought, the women only all smiles.

And, although everyone in the picture appeared very happy, it offended the director of “God of War” who likened it to the KKK lynching black people.
@LAME_STREET @MShaneman I’d imagine the Klan was ‘into it’ when they lynched people. Doesn’t make the act any less racist/horrific.

Again, this is the director of the game “God of War” that has naked and scantily clad women that can have off-screen sex with to gain rewards.
But he finds a photo of fully clothed women having fun offensive.
**WARNING _ STRONG LANGUAGE.**
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.

@davidscottjaffe A group of friends have a fun idea for their prom and David Jaffe of all people has to call them sexist and shame them.

@davidscottjaffe What the fuck are you talking about? There’s literally sex mini games in God of War.

@davidscottjaffe @Reyeko_
You publicly vilified everyone who was in the picture, so that’s exactly what you did.
Think before you tweet.

@davidscottjaffe @LAME_STREET @MShaneman Why are you comparing the Klan to those girls anyway? Your analogy makes no sense as a response
— H.E.Pennypacker (@hePennipacker) May 8, 2016
@davidscottjaffe @LAME_STREET @MShaneman HAHAHA, you just compared silly prom photos to a lynching! You have NO sense of proportion.
