This whole gamergate thing paints all male gamers as thugs. The people making the threats are psychopaths, and do not speak for all gamers. They see the video game as a sacred cow that is being attacked by feminists. So they make threats on the feminists instead of engaging them in polite debate. The problem is that sex sells in video games, the same for books, movies, tv shows, songs, etc. At times it can be sexist as well. But if you want to change the video game industry, you have to change the other industries as well.
