Fat Princess for the PSN is causing a stir all over the place what with the 'Fat Princess' premise. Apparently the fact she's fat is a major put down and obviously therefore carries with it a whole conspiratorial background about how that perpetuates fat hate in the real world.
Female gamers have to put up with a lot of crap in gaming, there's little doubt, but the political correctness surrounding this title seems a little over the top. It's okay to slag off commenters and call them trolls, even when they're being polite, but it's not OK to hear out both sides of the argument. Feminism is a dangerous ball game. You can read a whole heap more at Lesbian Gamers who have a more well rounded view of things.
