"Alright! Time to write a female character for my video game! Hmm, alright. Let's see I guess I can't - Make her a villain, because that means that I would be portraying women in a negative, misogynous tone - Make her overly attractive because I would be perpetuating the stereotype that only attractive women are heroic. This would also promote sexual obiectification of women Make her ugly because then I'd be saying that only unattractive women can get things done I'd also make unattractive women feel bad instead of empowering them - Make her the sidekick of a male character because that would imply that she's subservient to his whims, and that she is not equal - Make her the sidekick of a female character because that would imply that women cannot work together, or that one is more equal to the - Make her the hero, because that would just be a male 'fantasy'. Having her kick ass and win the day would just be enforcing negative stereotypes - Make her strong and willful and muscular because that would mean I'm just making a male character with breasts.' which women find offensive since it rejects femininity - Make her girly, feminine and sensitive, because that would mean that women cannot be strong independent and powerful - Make a female character at all because no matter what I do, feminists will ALWAYS bitch about any aspect they can dig out of the box, because it is their hobby and that's what they do for a living claiming to be oppressed by the "patriarchy" while women in a few 3rd world countries are truly subiected to discriminations Quote stolen from-Matt Addison

FEMINIST MEDIA CRITICISM PROBLEMS THIS SCANTILLY CLAD FEMALE CHARACTER IS CLEARLY JUST MEANT TO BE EYE CANDY FOR MEN... BUT AM I SLUT SHAMING IN THINKING SHE SHOULD BE MORE COVERED UP? COMPLAINING ABOUT A "WOMAN WARRIOR" CHARACTER IMPLIES THAT WOMEN CAN'T BE STRONG, BUT COMPLAINING ABOUT NOT BEING ONE IMPLIES THAT "FEMININE" TRAITS ARE SOMETHING NEGATIVE BY CRITICIZING THESE FEMALE CHARACTERS, AM I HOLDING WRITERS ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR UNEQUAL TREATMENT OF CHARACTERS, OR IMPOSING A HIGHER STANDARD OF JUDGEMENT ON WOMEN, WHILE JUST ACCEPTING MALE CHARACTERS AS THEY ARE???
