Also you say "she's being kidnapped for her power." When does a core Mario game ever establish or communicate this? They don't. Again, young girls (and boys) don't get the message from Mario games, "Oh wow, Peach is so POWERFUL!" The games say men=heroes/rescuers, women=victims.

You do realise that there are Mario spin off games that makes peach part of the action? Mario Kart or Mario Sport for example

Those are not core Mario games. The only "core" Mario Games in which Peach is "part of the action" are SMB2 and 3D World.

That's right. Amazingly, I'm *still* not happy. "Things are still extremely sexist and you're not satisfied yet?! What the fuck do you want?!"

I moderate a community of over 1 million people on google+. I have to remove posts that are against the rules and I have never had to take down a post because it’s sexist or racist.

so what you're saying is that you're crap at moderating.

No I’m saying that there has never been a post that has violated the rule of being sexist or racist

It's also already abundantly clear from our conversation up to this point that your idea of what qualifies as sexist and my idea of that are extremely different.

But again, it's irrelevant. I've been part of really great gaming communities too. I know games can bring good people together. It's great when that happens. They also can and do sometimes proliferate deeply sexist ideas.

I feel like perhaps we're edging close to agreement here.
