I've stirred up a fair controversy here. I want to thank Dada and Enterim for having more experience with feminism than me and defending it well.
I want to say that the key point is still to treat people equally and promote feminism to ensure equality. Some posters expressed that they feel sexism is no longer a problem, or that feminism is a joke. This sadly isn't true. If a man wants to know how sexism affects women, I suggest he asks his sister, or a girl friend, about her experiences. Most women have a lot of stories to tell.
This brings me to a point about generalization. A key point of feminism is that the psychological differences between men and women are caused by upbringing, and that if fundamental differences exist they are much smaller by comparison. When feminists talk about men having privilege in matters of sexism, it doesn't mean that the men are naturally bad. The point is that some people are favoured by society, and understanding this privilege is useful when it comes to understanding feminism. Everyone has some degree of privilege (especially me!) but it can be overcome with empathy.
+1.
Oh, and its been rather interesting seeing the community, er, fragment like this.

I might, but not for 2 weeks, finals.
Anyway, I've been thinking, as was seen with the mid air jump glitch I discovered, I think a large sequence break might be possible. You could grab the green key, and you might be able to do the glitch again in order to jump and reach the green chest in OoTW. That's a fairly mid-late game treasure, granting the upgraded swimming. My theory is that getting the treasure might cause the game to skip ahead to the state it would be at when the treasure is supposed to be picked up, cutting a large amount of time off the run.
The question is, testing it.

Cautious: Save just before fighting every Gym Leader and Legendary in the game.
Hi guys, I've been kinda overwhelmed by all this new content, but I think i'm over it now.
In reply to this, Does beating the elite four with no Pokemon get you both the Loyal and the Type Matcher achievements?
Now my own Achievements:

Lights Inside Out Use a lamp post as a door.
Stop hitting yourself! Bounce off the Final Bosses hands to whack his nose.

Both of the Fire Emblems would do.
On SSBM and SSBB, With the classic mode, the amount published would be similar to SSB.
The Subspace Emissary on the other hand....
Pokemon Colluseum, and XD, going with the Pokemon fandom.
