Feminist Frequency’s New Video Is “25 Invisible Benefits of Gaming While Male”

Playing With Privilege.

Anita Sarkeesian has released a new Feminist Frequency video—not in her Tropes vs. Women in Video Games series, but under a new “Playing With Privilege” banner. The video, featuring DoubleFine’s Tim Schafer and IGN’s Greg Miller (among others), is based on Feminist Frequency producer Jonathan McIntosh’s Polygon article about what it’s like to game with male privilege.
