Sexism in video games

I’ve been wanting to write a post about gender stereotyping in games, after seeing about Feminist Frequency’s new series and the disgusting responses to it. I particularly wanted to highlight games I thought did well in portraying woman characters.

However, I was reading Super Mario Wiki’s regular newsletter, The Shroom, and someone had already written a great article on the subject, and now that I’ve read it, I’m just going to link it instead of repeating all the stuff Crocodile Dippy says.

Maybe I will write that post one day, even if it’s just examples of those doing it right. Because this stuff is important.
