There are very few videogames that portray women as heroic and most that do, tend to over sexualize their appearance. To combat these stereotypes, Anita Sarkeesan started Feminist Frequency to help change the role/perception of women in videogames.

Anita Sarkeesan intends on equalizing the playing field, she spreads her message through lectures and her web-series, Feminist Frequency, which can be viewed on youtube.com.
