So, my brother plays this game. He's fourteen.
He's not a super serious elite player but he's pretty good. He likes collecting trophies and breeding competitive crosses. He's not a daily player but he's on fairly often. He got interested in the game from watching me play.
I know of other young males that are playing and I seriously think that's awesome but there is one thing that bothers me... The amount of weird, unprovoked private messages he gets from little girls. He and I have a good laugh over them before he generally blocks the sender. But, for real, it's creepy.
What the hell, kids? Stop objectifying boys on Howrse.
Agreed. Although, as a 23 year old male, I don't identify as male publicly for that reason.
ReplyDeleteYou are certainly not alone. I know a handful of male Howrse players who have also chosen to keep their genders anonymous.
