    Male and female NPC hostages have very different cultural meanings and transmit very different messages about gender roles in video games.

        @femfreq Because we all look for different cultural meanings when playing video games....

        @femfreq Precisely. It's not that women CAN'T be hostages, it's that 9 times out of 10 the hostages ARE women. What gives?

        @femfreq also, r6 injects gender politics where previously a flag was just fine. Was anybody asking for hostages instead of flags?

        @mausmalone @femfreq It's a game about counter-terrorist operations. Hostages make more sense than a flag.

        @JoestarSan @femfreq in CTF mode? Wouldn't that mean both sides are taking hostages?

        @mausmalone @femfreq Yes. You could be extracting a terrorist commander or whatever. Still makes more sense than a flag.

        @mausmalone @femfreq I agree that it's shitty that women are portrayed as hostages 9 times out of 10 in video games. It needs to change.
