OMG!!!! Gamer Girls can be hot too!! Like, girl power, man! Now let's talk about how me mocking the idea that a pagent is actually the best way to overcome sexism in the video game industry does not oppress the special little snowflakes.
Sexism is a system of oppression. I use the patriarchy for short. Now, important to this system is the concept of power. Billion dollar industries have more power than internet bloggers. The fact that every single day of your life you are told you have to be feminine to be acceptable has way more power than any thing I could possibly say to you. When you walk out your where ever your computer is door, you'll be surrounded by society and its construction of how a woman is to be.
Further more, you'll have the memories of how since birth you were raised to be a woman, the messages you got about this or that or the other. You are not a special snowflake.
