I gotta say, I enjoy watching Anita Sarkeesians videos. They are interesting and insightful. In some cases I think she has some valid points but I don't agree with everything she says. The unfortunate thing is that whenever I try to find responses to Anita Sarkeesians videos on youtube they are all filled with Ad Hominem attacks that barely even address the arguments she was making. I don't get this. As far as I can tell Anita Sarkeesian is not a militant feminist, or atleast she does not come off that way from the Tropes vs Women in Gaming videos that I have seen. As far as I can tell she hasn't gone off on any rants about hating men in those videos so why are the responses always so negative rather than just addressing the arguments? I'd really like to see level headed responses to her videos instead of "Why Anita Sarkeesian is an Idiot". Is the gaming community incapable of that?
