How games' lazy storytelling uses violence and rape against women as wallpaper

Hi @waetherman - In past related topic threads, it was noted that in games men are gender stereotyped: by men, for men. That’s true physically and in action. We’ve also discussed a study about how gaming affects socialization toward different races.

Male stereotyping was discussed in depth on this Sarkeesian thread.

Here’s a link to Part 1 of the Women as Background discussion. Sexual stereotypes in gaming are discussed there as well the study on race.
