I wasn't aware that this was a thing until Snowstalker brought it up one time in IRC chat.  Really, most of the people involved in video game journalism are kind of self-embarrassments but that should be obvious to anyone.  While I don't agree with the hyper-feminist crowd that insists that we need to get rid of the hooker scenes in Grand Theft Auto games, Princess Peach needs to wear coveralls, or that Lara Croft needs to wear a professional business suit and be put in a game where she is the new Human Resources Director at a corporation that sells excavation equipment, it's clear there is a pretty obvious MRA element in the "ethics" movement (like the fact that they bother to attack such ideas so thoroughly in the first place).

So yeah, not really.  Bring up ethics where it actually matters.
