"Because stabbing the real thing is illegal."

Ha-ha Blizzard. An "ex-boyfriend" punching bag is so hilarious, but stabbing ex-boyfriends is even more so. Right? Classy.

/sarcasm.

EDIT: There seem to be a few threads popping up about this on the official PTR forums:

Yeah, no, I get it. Just as funny as if it was an ex-girlfriend punching bag. Right?

You took my feet right out of my mouth.

I'm offended, deal with it.

There should be an ex-girlfriend version as well. If the ex-GF version was the only one available, there would absolutely be people throwing a fit.

This joke is pathetic, and tasteless. It reeks of the kind of feminism born in California that has a great disdain for males.

[FelPlague]

yes telling people stabbing their Ex-boyfriend is illegal is such a horrid thing of blizzard to do!

and idk why people are getting so offended by this, what the utter fuck, im a guy and i had a nice laugh about this, was ffing hilarious "Stab this dummy of your ex, cause doing it in real life is illegal!"

except they are, notice how all the guys above you are complaining...

As someone whose been lied to, cheated on, and used by every gf ive had. where is my ex-gf training dummy? BTW im not offended or anything. I laughed when i saw it. More disappointing if anything. If an ex-gf is never made, then it just more feminism pandering that blizz is doing.

It seems exhausting to go out of your way to be offended at stuff like this.

It's not really about being offended either. It's more the soulcrushing disappointment to see that the development team, or at least one developer therein, is swimming in the cesspool of SJW betacuck ideologies so much so that they find it funny and OK to shit on guys, when people would be losing their jobs if it was women who they were targeting with these oh-so-hilarious "jokes". But, you know, even if someone is actually offended, they should remember that men aren't allowed to. Be offended, that is. Or complain.

Of course. You have to be PC!

Double standards are perfectly fine sometimes. This is why the sexes will never be completely 'equal.' So I still don't care.

Literally no one is complaining above me. Sarcasm is a thing.

Yep, this is pretty blatant feminist pandering. It's exactly the type of minor thing some ultra-left wing radical could slip through the cracks and implement into the game.
