Video games don't cause misogyny, agree or disagree?

Question

Answer

Cause it? Nope. But they can absolutely help solidify misogynistic ideas.

I don't feel misogyny is as clear cut as violence. Most kids know it isn't okay to punch someone in the face just because. But misogyny is woven so tightly into the fabric of our society that kids don't even see it for what it is. Hell, most adults don't even fully understand it.

So those ideas take root and grow a lot easier than the violence we find in video games.

Answer

No, they don't cause violence either. They actually help prevent it. Of course, don't tell fox news...

Answer

I don't think they cause misogyny, but I don't think they are doing women any favors. The way women are portrayed in most video games is unfair and possibly harmful a to the way young boys see and treat women, but I don't think it causes misogyny directly. I think video games portray women the way they do because of our misogynistic society dictates they should and allows them to sell so well.
