I find it really weird that the best possible outcome for this seems to be just letting her take her zombie husband home.

You need to continue de quest in act 3
Nutteman@lemmy.world 11 months ago
No, she made her choice. Also I fucked a bear, and later an Illythid so she has to fuck the zombie it’s only fair.

With European context this feels a bit racist. Just replace ‘Slav’ with any other discriminated against group of immigrants (Muslims, Chinese people).
Sheeple@lemmy.world 11 months ago
With more European context you’ll realise this is about the alcohol health crisis that is spread a lot among men of that area.
If you want a similar example, replace the man with an obese man and “slav” with “American”

The first thing that jumped into my head was that meme about American couples where the couple is always Nice, Decently Attractive Woman Plus The Most Racist Man Alive. It’s the same dynamic.
If the Slavic women aren’t drinking, thus making them all on average prettier than the men because drink makes you ugly, then I fear for what they are actually doing instead. Probably cocaine.

I was advised once as a young man to travel there. It’s the place where the ratio of beauty between men and women is the furthest off kilter, and that an attractive American with a good job could find a woman with supermodel beauty.
Sounded creepy, never did it. If I go there it won’t be for that reason. Just wanted to add that someone in a mentor position to me advised it for that reason. Maybe there’s something to it

That’s absolutely disgusting. Reminds me of these subreddits where men come together to discuss countries based on how traditional the women are + how desperate (so easier to get a wife) + how beneficial it would be to have a passport in that country. They talked about the women as if they were dog breeds.

Oh Jesus that last sentence put into words an ambiguous uneasy feeling I’ve had about those folks. I hate it, thank you.
curiousaur@reddthat.com 11 months ago
It’s not as disgusting as your comparison. It’s not fetishizing a certain people, but rather just pointing out that you can be much more successful in dating where the local men tend to be ugly.

I’ve seen the reverse in slav couples as well… both are not a pretty sight.
Sheeple@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Alcoholism unfortunately has it’s consequences
0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
Yep, we so drink a lot.
768@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
This is extremely unnecessary.
surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Necessary? Is it necessary for me to drink my own urine? No, but I do it anyway because its sterile and I like the taste.
abfarid@startrek.website 11 months ago
Urine isn’t sterile, but as long as you like the taste, I guess.
Sheeple@lemmy.world 11 months ago
A Slavic person chimed in it actually is a real phenomena based on a toxic culture in high school that encourages young men to drink an excess of alcohol
JackOfAllTraits@lemmy.world 11 months ago
One fucking person said that. I am a slav too and he or she definetly did not speak for me. This meme is literarly racist.

Call-slavic-people-ugly-pass?
RedditWanderer@lemmy.world 11 months ago
This is actually extremely funny and harmless. It’s such a hyperbole nobody would take insult to it.
where_am_i@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
Oh, hi, random slavic person, can we ask you about your fascinating culture of heavy drinking?
768@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
No, I live in the successor state to the society that killed millions of ‘slavic’ and East Europeans based on stereotypes like these.

" - Ma’am he is dead.
- no mate, I think he is just Croatian"
yamapikariya@lemmyfi.com 11 months ago
As a Slavic person. This isn’t that exaggerated. Usually stems from high alcohol consumption.
Num10ck@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Its about war and not valuing human life. Slavic countries historically lose huge amounts of men on the battlefield over and over… so the ratio of available men to women are thrown way off. the surviving men take their pick of the litter for mates.
Nutteman@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Dang dawg, save some celibacy for the rest of us
mashbooq@infosec.pub 11 months ago
As a point of clarification, historically russians force huge amounts of Slavic men into war because russians don’t value human life
Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Oh yeah so let us just group all slavs together with Russia and USSR
