    Sure.

    Keep explaining why you’re saying what you’re saying.

    Yep, your understanding of the implicit context is such.

    Other people can have different implicit understandings of context.

    And you still aren’t listening, you’re rationalizing, explaining yourself.

    Never owned up to throwing out nonsensical accusations, made against Kojima, but actually said to Not Kojima.

    I already explained what you are doing.

    I understand.

        You described wearing basically a bikini, sheers, some tac rigs, boots, etc…

        As exhibitionism.

        Thats a signifcant exaggeration / misunderstsnding of exhibitionism.

        https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exhibitionism

        Exhibitionism is basicslly flashing, intentionally showing off the bits that are in this image, not visible, specifically to an audience.

        Exhibitionism is a nude bicycle parade.

        Exhibitionism is flashing your nude body to a crowd of onlookers.

        Exhibitionism is a ‘Free the Nipples!’ protest.

        At least by the framework of the game world being a consistent universe unto itself, Quiet is not an exhibitionist: She is a sniper, who prefers to operate very far away from other people.

        Sure, if you want to expand exhibitionism to include breaking the 4th wall, to ‘being viewed by the audience of gamers’, then… ok… but… can you see how that creates a standard where any character that is depicted nude, is then an exhibitionist by way of existing in a form of media?

        So its pretty innacurate to describe either Quiet, or gamers seeing Quiet, as an exhibitionist, unless she is actually doing an exhibitionism.

        Being eye candy is not the same thing as exhibitionism.

        Telling someone they are either into viewing exhibitionists, or are themselves an exhibitionist… for seeing a scantily clad character… thats not correct, just factually, unless you want to bend the meaning of exhibitionism to the point that it basicslly breaks.
