        @femfreq Also why do you focus so much on the damsel in distress trope instead of other actual, distressing problems in the gaming community

        @femfreq Fiercely independent female role model rendered helpless rescue fodder. Now that's progress!

        @craigeastman @femfreq Are you suggesting things haven't changed from 1980 or do you think this is still the 1980's

        @Gameguy9900 @femfreq I'm saying what a misappropriation of character attributes it was to cast her as a damsel in distress.

        @craigeastman @femfreq I know. But you said that this was progress (sarcastically I hope) and I was wondering about that

        @Gameguy9900 @femfreq If that's a serious enquiry then you're not the kind of person whose concerns I feel the need to address.

        @femfreq So did you ever find any games between Metroid and Tomb Raider with female protagonists? Because I found about 15.

        @femfreq Wouldn't...really call Miss Piggy a positive feminist character, either. Most of her most identifiable traits are bad ones.

        @femfreq The only person Miss Piggy consistently beats up is Kermit, anyway.

        @femfreq What makes you think that the average young guy or gal will fall into the type values that you assign? Gotta think statistically.

        @femfreq Now let's say that young ppl who somehow find this obscure game from the 80s never really saw anything Muppet related. What then?
