So this currently seems to be a hot topic lately...mostly due to the (recentish?) rise of Anita Sarkeesian's videos. Quick links!

Video 3 (very recent, as in yesterday): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LjImnqH_KwM
What's your stance on the matter? Do you complely agree with, slightly agree with, are neutral towards, slightly disagree with, or disagree completely with Anita's stances and responses on the matter as a feminist?
I know those are long videos, but I found myself watching the whole thing for the latest one (only one I've seen, yet so far). I agree to an extent, but I also think they're quite biased and are only focusing on the negative, as damsels aren't always negative figure heads. This is a response video that I like, as it addresses some of the points she talked about and how there are positive examples as well: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HJihi5rB_Ek
