Re: games...
In contrast, a violent person is going to be violent, which may translate to physical action.
I think this part is really important. Already violent people might get more violent because of a video game, but I don't think it's more likely that it happens with a video game than it happens when reading the Bible (which has a lot of really violent stuff in it), or watching evening television. It's not causing anything.
But I think it's important to note that if we live in a sexist culture, then sexism in video games enforces all of that. It continues to encourage people to think that way. It sort of nudges out the latent sexism for some people. It's not the only thing in our society that does that, but it's perhaps one of the most egregious ones.
It's a matter of lots of violence being a result of someone who is mentally ill or deranged, where as a completely average person can be sexist. No one is going to shoot up a school because of a video game, because this is not something our society condones in any matter. But sexism is.
