I don't get the question. I mean, should sexism and gaming mix?
Sexism as a result of lazy writing is still sexism. Writing the issue off doesn't solve anything. "The game wasn't being racist because the writers were actively evil, it was just the result of lazy writing." This excuse doesn't fly in any other situation, so why should it here? This would also suggest that fighting sexism in games would lead to better written games, which is a good thing. If games represent someone in a negative fashion then gamers have a right to offer their opinions on it.Yes, this includes negative opinions, and no, they shouldn't have to stop talking about it just because you want them too. If you want them to stop complaining then offer a better argument as to why sexism doesn't exist in gaming, because this doesn't cut it. Norithics pretty much summed it up, the foundation of your argument is a logical fallacy.
One person was annoying on a game. Go play COD and count how many adult males act the same way, not even counting bratty teenagers. I also find it interesting that when someone posts a pro feminist page people complain about how they should have posted on one of the existing forums, but on a page like this I see almost none.
