"Well, one of the problems with [sexual depictions of women in videogames is it actually reinforces this cultural myth that women are sexual objects and sexual playthings for male amusement "I think it's a bigger issue to talk about the industry as a whole and howit perpetuates these ideas of sexism and misogyny as opposed to just Grand Theft Auto, for example." Anita Sarkeesian on The Colbert Report: October 29. 2014 Athena Hollow athenahollow # Follow Pffiffffft. Gaters are passing around a study that says games don't make you sexist. Too bad no one ever said they DID

_"*I guess i had to do it if only because people are expecting me to do it. I didn’t even remember this was a thing till yesterday XD*"_ Had to add this because I thought that ppl would actually click the source link and look at the description after all this time
Like...is there any solution to this? Should we start something?

X Journalists would make claims of people like Anita Sarkeesian "playing video games all her life" when she openly admitted many times she is not a gamer and only starter recently (when it wasn't for an interview). Various developers trading sex or money for good reviews got exposed, journalists who accepted got exposed. People became a bit more critical about supporting a game just because the developer has a victim complex stating tat their game could have only failed because of sexism, instead of their own poor developing skills. What really sealed the deal was opposition often faking their own harassment. Anita sarkeesian and Zoe Quinn have been caught multiple times screenshotting "harassment" while showing that the harrasser's account name in the login. Or when someone called the police to help Sarkeesian against a "very real threat" she was posting about, only for police to find the harasser's messages were coming from her IP address. I just want honesty from the community, and the lies were mostly exposed by the "dreaded" gamergate. 1.3K views • View upvotes 26

They are going to claim that reinforcing is not the same thing as making you sexist and with that they are somewhat right. X media can reinforce X views. So I would try to go for a better quote like this one https://knowyourmeme.com/photos/945034-gamergate but I'm sure we can grab more then enough quotes from her and Josh.
