Chewbot posted:"Mysogeny is profitable" is in no way similar to "A publisher decides what to make based on revenue", which has been my experience in the industry. And by the way, making a product with a demographic does not make it misogynistic. Misogyny is when you HATE women, not when you want to RESCUE them from dragons. Don't throw terms like misogyny around casually. Except the whole point of the Damsel in Distress trope is that it reduces women to objects to be won. You could replace the Damsel with a pot of gold in a lot of games and, other than a bit of screaming for help, the story doesn`t change. quote:"People who point out mysoginy must have a personal agenda" is in no way similar to "Picking on Nintendo seems like a personal agenda". Nintendo is a company who caters to children and primarily gender-neutral audiences. If you're attacking them first while drowning in a sea of games filled with strippers and hookers, maybe it's because of you, not them. As for the "Should we change?" question, it`s a fair one but the answer is absoloutely yes. Perceptions of women as helpless and as objects is pervasive through pretty much all media types and influences people`s attitudes and perceptions of themselves and others. You can say that it`s a reflection of society, but if media starts to change, people`s perceptions change too.

I think comparing "not having a reliable power source" to "not having a spare pen" is pretty disingenuous.
