This was a pretty good video for the most part. However, I take one major issue with it. It feels like he still believes that Anita Sarkeesian was unreasonable and seeking offense.

The thing is, just because Anita focused on analysing media from a feminist perspective does not mean she was looking for stuff to get offended by. In reality, she made it very clear she was not with the disclaimer at the start of every video.

Her goal was not to tell you to stop liking media because it's sexist. Her goal was to highlight feminist concepts in practice by showing how these games were made in a sexist society and ended up the way they did. Then to highlight ways in which this could've been prevented.

She was not a reactionary. She was not looking to be offended. She was aiming to educate about feminism through a medium that many people could relate to.
