I’ve thoroughly enjoyed watching Anita Sarkeesian’s Tropes vs Women series and the latest episode, which focuses on the use of sexualised women as ‘decoration’ in video games, is no exception.
I realise some of this stuff might be plainly obvious to certain people, but I’ve always found myself learning something from these videos. Usually that lesson is, ‘wow, video games really are choc full of casual sexism’. I understand that some find certain aspects of Sarkeesian’s arguments problematic but I find them accessible, concise and well put together.
Well worth watching.
