[PHYSICS-PORN] What is it?

[Riitoken]

Physics-Porn is:

"Any form of modern entertainment where a physically diminutive female is winning combat against males 2x - 3x her size."

Probably the first best recent example would be the film: "Kick Ass."

The actress is adorable and the fight scenes were super-hero funny. This film is also a perfect example of modern D&D which has become a PERSONALITY-SIMULATOR - not a physics simulator.

Cheering for the underdog has always been a feature of good entertainment. A small female serves that idea well.

Rebel Moon is a very recent example. I counted 35 physics violations in the final fight scene.

And BG3 is, without a doubt, physics-porn everywhere. I can't blame females for liking physics-porn. It is fantasy.

It is what it is.

Okay?

FYI This OP constitutes the first use of the phrase "PHYSICS-PORN" on the internet.

I'll let this claim just sit here unfalsified.

You've been coined.

Op is a troll, just give me the clowns.

It impacts immersion for those of us who care about actual physics - men typically do care because nature kisses us with superior size and weight and STR.

A personality simulator favors the females and weaker males. It makes sense that this demographic would find value in shunning real world physics (which does not kiss them). It makes sense that this group would favor the mechanics of personality.

Yep, magic can do pretty much anything. You're actually helping me make my point.

Because if it were up to me, all females would require some kind of magical reason as to why their STR can be equal or greater than the males. Same for height and weight.

Again, none of this matters if we accept that modern 5E is a personality simulator - physics be damned. We ignore DNA and biological reality.

Any action movie featuring men is doing the exact same thing.

Yep, D&D opened the door to all forms of physics-porn with 2E.

People like to immerse themselves in fantasy such as DnD and otherworlds as to temporarily depart from the brutish and an evergrim reality of our physical world. You are just another virus.

Dang... This post is really ruining midget fighting for me.... I'm just someone watching physic porn ..

Oh you coined a phrase. Lame and arrogant to think your thought it or said it first. Makes no difference, climb off your mole hill...

You claim to create physics also?

[Popsicles]

You really hate woman don't you? How many threads you going to start with this type of flame-bait?

I made a falsifiable claim.

Yes. But you probably don't even realize it because hollywood has been indoctrinating you for decades thinking that it's totally possible (and even normal) for men to get kicked in the face multiple times and get back up. Only now that there are a hand full of movies where women are fighting do you suddenly feel the need to make up words for it.

No, I really like them, a lot, but not if they behave like men.

Nah, not only now dude. This landed on the radar of real men back when Tomb Raider was released and suddenly like that the Lara Croft effect went viral.
