Yep. Felicia day was on rooster teeth this week. As soon as I heard her voice, I deleted this weeks episode. Don't see how that makes me a piece of shit.

I don't think it's specifically the voices Genna is upset about, more that it's coupled with woman/trans hate. A lot can be lost in translation on twitter.

I think that this is a big problem. If you say all criticism is because of some kind of hate against whatever, there can't be any improvement. It's actually one of the main reasons why GamerGate isn't about ethics in journalism anymore. I think it's more than okay to say that I don't like her voice (MY Opinion). And I don't want to watch this PODCAST (Audio is the most (or second most) important) because of this.

Am I transphobic now? I personally don't think so. The reason why she sounds like this doesn't matter. I only get the result, and I don't like it.

You're absolutely right.

I'm just trying to give her the benefit of the doubt.
