Sorry, I don't learn about men or women from games, the vast majority of them are not necessarily reflective of real life. They're fantasies. And in fantasy, I do enjoy taking the role of a hero, or a heroine. And whether people want to admit it, there are plenty of strong female characters out there.
Conversely, for every 'negative' trope about women, 10,000,000 men are slaughtered in games, and every male is cut from marble like some greek god. So yeah, I mean if we wanted to nitpick about absurdly stupid shit (and yes, this is stupid shit. You aren't obligated to play ANY game), there's plenty of examples to go around.
I'll continue reading sci-fi/fantasy, and playing games that I enjoy. Ya'll can continue buying into gaming, and complaining about everything you choose to buy and play. It would be nice though, if the people who are all up in arms over this, would shut the fuck up for 2 seconds, and apply themselves to bringing new IP to the industry, rather than attempting to force everyone into adopting their tastes (or fantasy), you might actually see more games that they felt were 'appropriate'. But, this movement seems hell bent on coopting every current gaming narrative/story/fantasy, to suit their own moral compass. And I simply do not take kindly to censorship of other peoples work.
