“Under the guise of escapism and pleasure, we are getting images of imagined power that mask, and even erase, how much still remains to be done for girls and women, images that make sexism seem fine, even fun, and insist that feminism is now utterly pointless, even bad for you. True power here has nothing to do with economic independence or professional achievement. It has to do with getting men to lust after you and other women to envy you.”
— Susan J. Douglas, Enlightened Sexism, as featured in our latest episode of Tropes vs. Women in Video Games, Lingerie Is Not Armor. (via femfreq)
