Thought I'd post a link for the commenters saying they don't know where this is from.


I happen to agree with most of her points. She's not saying that you can't like or enjoy a movie or tv show that follows some of the tropes. Or that there isn't anything that does female characters justice. Just that there are a pattern of stereotypes in media that can be a problem.

I watched two of her videos because of the link provided, her Bayonetta one and her sucker punch one, and frankly the entire time i wanted to reach through the computer and slap her. She basically only bashes the clothing in sucker punch which is a horrible basis for a character not being a strong female, and i saw the video for the ad campaign for Bayonetta and thought it was insanely clever and not sexist at all.

inb4: i am a woman and simply thinks that the judgement of a character needs to be based on more than what she is wearing.

Haven't watched either of those (her critiques or the movie/game itself).

But honestly, sometimes I'm just so put off by highly sexualized clothing, I just don't even want to bother watching the movie/playing the game/reading the comic/etc.

I personlly have never had that happen, but to each their own i guess. what gets me is when someone automatically assumes a character has a poor personality based on what they wear, and we don't do it for male characters. they can wear anything and no one judges their character from it.
