Thanks #XboxOne #E3 press conference for revealing to us exactly zero games featuring a female protagonist for the next generation. — Feminist Frequency (@femfreq) June 10, 2013 Above is a tweet I made this afternoon in reaction to the fact that none of the games presented at Microsoft’s Xbox One E3 press conference featured female protagonists. Below are some of the Twitter replies to that observation which exemplify the male privilege and male entitlement endemic in the gaming community today. This is also a window into what it’s like to be a female video game critic on twitter. 1. @simplyflyin 2. @A_Hint_of_Shit 3. @Triosem 4. @DavidBostock93 5. @Jamie_Brereton 6. @SethForsman 7. @Beefheart82 8. @AzEHeaD15 9. @NickFuckypu 10. @JLB_esquire 11. @MathiasKaizer 12. @About20Donuts 13. @RogerLateralus 14. @izashid29 15. @BEATandDELETE 16. @B_Razz 17. @twerk_king69 18. @Epsilon_Five 19. @Spyrolic 20. @itwasagoodtime 21. @JerkfaceMcGee 22. @patq911 23. @r0bz0rz 24. @JimPhee 25. @Pootslap 26. @Pokefan1223 27. @Aurini 28. @yutt 29. @HennersQuack 30. @GabeAsterd 31. @MundaBric 32. @DoctorWatkins 33. @xTheShad0wZ 34. @GangWarlord 35. @le_mec 36. @coolguyquietess 37. @OldMiley 38. @TheChad118 39. @dodgykebaab 40. @urafaget 41. @BJ_Dickson 42. @Bloodergo 43. @Uneternal 44. @The_Master_E 45. @TheVidyaBoy 46. @danier_san 47. @ReissDJO 48. @mrdizzy 49. @IntelMiner 50. @AliAdelMohamed Source Main page (current trends)
