I'm going to throw my rattle out of the pram too since OP has and add my two cents:

1) why aren't brown people (Pakistani, Indian, bengali) not getting their own video

2) why aren't Arabs getting their own video

3) why aren't people with dwarfism getting their own video

4) why aren't people with autism getting their own video

5) why aren't oaps getting their own video

6) my cat isn't represented either and that's a big no no, because my cat is frigging awesome

These people are Asian too so like I said Asians should get their own video. 

As for Dwarfs, people with austism, and ops it would be good for them to get a video too since I assume we have for gamers with these conditions.

I'm happy that other groups are getting attention but people like me demographics wise arent included so i have ythe right to be upset.

And what is your demographic? And why aren't you bothering to do something about it? Get productive.

Well the percentage of Male to Female gamers are about even https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.windowscentral.com/heres-some-interesting-stats-about-xbox-one-owners-microsoft-shared-partners%3Famp

So why give women their own special event? I get they want to be inclusive but why not have an event for Asians, whites, heterosexuals, and males since the goal is to include EVERYONE.

Just because women might number equally to men in terms of overall numbers... Doesn't mean they are as fairly represented.

Regarding Asians, because no one in western media ever cared about Asians unless the purpose of their inclusion is pandering to the Asian market.

Asians aren't under-represented though.
There is an entire genre of video games that are almost exclusively about them. (JRPG's.)
Sony and Nintendo are gaming powerhouses from an... You guessed it. Asian country.

I really don't understand the claims about political correctness here. Political correctness isn't about trying to advance the situation of some groups. It's more about what you can and what you can't say. If anything, this is the opposite of political correctness.

Whilst correct, it's also more than that.

Straight White/Asian Male.

If about half of gamers are women and they aren't represented as developers than that's on the women not wanting to pursue that profession and it's not like there's not a lot of women gamers.
