Boob Jam, the Interview: Why Video Games Are Ready for Different Boobs - ANIMAL

Sat, 08/10/2013 - 06:02 -- rprice

Yesterday, we briefly posted about project Boob Jam, a coding marathon event and ongoing project to address breasts in video game culture. Since then, we spoke with project creator Jenn Frank who wanted to clear up some of misconceptions as well as errors and misinformation in the recent BBC article we used as reference. In this interview, Frank talks about being bored with the “male gaze” argument, about starting new discussions instead of “elevating” old ones and how there is no need to mistrust the so-called potential ”audience” of the counter-cliche breast-related video games that will be made at Boob Jam this September, because, ultimately “Video games are supposed to be fun!”
