Kickstarter "Tropes vs Women in Videogames"

Dsh: hallelujah, amen.

I think the majority of the backlash against the push for feminism in gaming boils down to three major facets:
1) Good old fashioned sexism
2) Defensiveness for enjoyable games now being critiqued for their sexism
3) A lack of creative vision to imagine what feminist friendly games would look like

In the spirit of constructive critique, I want to address point three and ask you all "What would a high quality, feminist friendly game look like?"

I disagree. You can only get the highest score with the most phallic block.

Are you joking or just unaware that she's been over this...?

[Ack]

So one version of the game contains imagery she finds offensive and therefore all versions are suspect?

You know what, fuck it. Feminist video games will look like E.T. That's it. That's all. that is the only thing acceptable, because it is equally offensive to everyone.

Don't think she's saying this at all... Looks like more of a smart ass remark to random Twitter instigators.

ET's neck extends when he is aroused. Ack, why are you obsessed with phallic representation in games.

And whale stomachs resemble vaginas. Why do you deny letting female sexuality be represented in video games, JT?
