  1. Why is the male gaze wrong?

    Why is having sexy women means that it "reduces the character to her sex appeal"? If anything, modern media has showed that most modern women if you take sex appeal away are very unlikable

    wanting to see sexy women != view women as mere sex objects

  1. men are not sexualized in the same way - not even sure what this means

    men are not oppressed => citation need it

stigma of "slut" - mostly done by women to women. The fact that she equates sexy women to sluts proves my point. Leftist women think all women sexier then them are sluts.

Video games and movies should be a reflection of human behavior in order to make them immersive but instead they are used by leftists to reshape gender roles. I doubt that is what she means though.

I think on some level it's a guilty conscience. Deep down some of these women know that their only redeeming quality is their sex appeal, but their ego can't handle accepting their own failings that lead to that.

Men aren't sexualized in the same way because the market for sexy males is miniscule, and the risk of alienating straight men who don't want to seem gay outweighs it.

Now, when I say "sexualized in the same way", I mean it - tight clothing, exposed skin, sexy animations, seductive behaviors - not just being handsome or muscled.

With that definition in mind, who actively wants to see sexualized males in a video game? At best it's gay male gamers and a minority of straight female gamers, when combined account for only a tiny fraction of the overall hardcore gamer population.

Who actively doesn't want to see sexualized males in a video game? Everyone else who doesn't want to be seen as gay, such as the majority of straight male gamers.

stigma of "slut"

I don't get why that would be a bad thing. Slutting it out devolves you as a person.

mostly done by women to women

Sadly for all the wrong reasons.
