Women make the world go round. They are the mothers to our daughters who then become mothers to their daughters who then, well, you get the picture. The female gender completes us and we owe a huge debt of gratitude to all the women of the world. Where would we be without Mary, or the Virgin Queen for that matter? And more specifically, where would we be without the breast? It's not a secret that people love breasts. They nourish our hunger as infants and nourish our sexual appetite as adults. Breasts, and their size, wield power in unimaginable ways. They even have doctors who specialize in making them the perfect size and shape.

The world loves T&A, and with that said, what would the entertainment industry be without it? Well for one an entire industry would be wiped out never to grace our hard discs again, leaving them flaccid and unused. Yes, I'm talking about porn the billion dollar industry that you hope your girlfriend doesn't know you know about. The margin of hardcore porn and entertainment becomes further blurred with the slew of rap videos that thrive on it to sell the artist's ridiculously ostentatious distortions of reality, because god knows their creatively stunted lyrics just ain't painting the picture. While summer blockbusters feature the babe of the month in tight situations (among other things) and reel in millions of dollars worth of horny teens and adults alike trying to catch a glimpse of the almighty magical breast. Ah, the breast.

Advancements in technology have allowed video game artists to shape the subtle nuances of "the bounce" into an art form that was previously only heralded by god himself. What started in pixel format has now blossomed into the buxom bosom of an 18 year old. Video game sexism jumped to new heights when the infamous Lara Croft first hit the scene on the Playstation and Saturn. Back then her 300 polygon rendered form showcased breasts akin more to cones, however technology advanced and with it so did Ms. Croft's lofty expectations. In time Lara's breasts became so infamous that they eventually made it to the big screen via Angelina Jolie. But when pondering the biggest sexism offender in video game history the Dead or Alive franchise slowly jiggles to mind.

Besides being an unbelievably great fighting game, the biggest draw to the game are the barely clothed female fighters and the games pioneering of the boob bounce. Still don't see the sexism? Well DOA Beach Volleyball is drenched in it. Seriously, how does a fighting game spin off into a volleyball game? Simple my friends, because of the power of the breast. Even in the PS3 application "Home", creating a female character limits you to a superficial, model like figure. Go figure. It seems the videogame industry has been and still is a playground for boys sexual imagination and infatuation.
