Tough sledding last night at Talladega, with the lone highlight being a stage 2 win for @carlile.
Carter started the race with a drive-through penalty which put her a lap down for stage 1 and part of stage 2, and was part of an accident on lap 45, sustaining significant damage. Still, she was able to continue on to finish 14th.
Carlile struggled in stage 1, unable to make progress towards the front, but put himself in position to take the stage 2 win and secure those valuable bonus points. Fuel saving allowed him to stay on track after a caution came out with 2 laps remaining, sending the race into overtime. Restarting in 5th with a good chance to win, he was unfortunately tagged in the left rear on the final lap while attempting to avoid contact from a car to his outside. The spin would relegate him to a 17th place finish.

This video offers a lot of context as to why men are not sexualized in games as much as women are. I mean some of it is intuitive because of the audience which is pandered to; it is assumed that most players are straight men that want to see women in sexualized, vulnerable, and suggestive situations/poses.
Most gaming leading men are depicted in a way that is more aspirational than sexualized. As straight men don't desire other men carnally, so they only see the homosocial aspect of other men.
Some men make MASSIVE assumptions about what women find attractive and fumble the bag with garbage hot takes when the poll results do not agree with their "this is what women want" train of thought.
As they are confused that women are individuals that have different preferences and don't just act/think like some men believe they will. OMG the amount of dudes that are confused about women not minding or finding dad bods hot...It could power all the electronic devices on Earth for centuries! Like, bros don't assume the desires of women (as you are men, you should ask questions and want genuine answers only).
This is honestly a fascinating video that has me in a stranglehold. I hope to improve my ability to discuss the topic
