When I saw this project I thought, "Right on!" As a long-time gamer and wannabe feminist, I've always been bothered by the stereotypes used in games for women, in particular. So my wife and I kicked in some money to the project. Then the harassment started (directed toward the woman behind the project). It is embarrassing stuff, as a man and as a gamer, aside from being illegal and atrocious. It reminds me of the rape boondoggle that had me swear off Penny Arcade forever.
So now I am determined to try to get as many people as possible to support this kickstarter. Even if you throw in a single buck, it adds your voice to the masses who say, "Bullying will not silence us!"
Since this is a gaming community, I thought it appropriate to promote it hear, hoping to hear from other gamers who would like the role of women in games to be less objective.
Thanks!
