She who Musn't be Named Finally touches Super Princess Peach

And as expected, she went for the obvious PMS induced powers... Not to mention that she uses games that were made AFTER SPP to take a jab at her damsel role. Cause let's face it, Peach IS the Quintessential Damsel in Distress. She then goes on a Buffy rant... She's a Buffy fan and she references BTVS a lot. As always this allows her to go on a tangent and show clips of Girl Power stuff like the Spice Girls. Of course she will go out of her way to downplay the male damsels by saying that the male damsels are a joke on the whole Damsel thing or... THE PATRIARCHY!! Ah yes, The Patriarchy I guess we could define it as:

To begin with, we're not what you'd call "human." Over the past 200 years, a consciousness appeared layer by layer at the crucible of the White House. It's not unlike life started in the oceans four billion years ago. The White House was our primordial soup, a base of evolution. We are formless. We are the very discipline and morality that Americans invoke so often. How can anyone hope to eliminate us? As long as this nation exists, so will we.

The La-Li-Lu-Le-Lo... the "shadowy government that is keeping those with internal reproductive organs down for thousands of years"!! Kinda like the Illuminati. That's her scapegoat. That's what bugs me.  Yes, there might be some sexist jerks in positions of power, but it's not like every male in the world are part of this "Shadow Govermnment" and have meetings where they twirl their mustaches and talk how they keep the women down

I know I mentioned it earlier, but she loves to downplay the males' roles on games. Part One of her Damsel Rant: She talks about Dinosaur Planet and Krystal turned from playable character to Damsel... How the Patriarchy and that Evil Miyamoto man knocked Krystal out of her starring role...
Dinosaur Planet was meant to have a MALE Playable Character as well...


HE Lost his role in the story and was replaced by Fox!! Sadly, that's not important to her.

On the third video she mentions this game called Spelunky. The Remake of that game allows you to change the Damsels to Men or Dogs, not just women... SHE COMPLAINS because you can change the woman to a Dog... and she keeps on downplaying the Male Damsels, because they're not women.

Of course she proceeds to whine about indie and tablet games relying on the trope... Cause sexisim... It has nothing to do that the rescue a weaker individual is one of the most basic storylines of all time and requires VERY LITTLE Explanation. If the kidnapee is a woman, it's bad cause it's sexist. If the victim is male, it's bad because it's Equal Opportunity kidnapping. What do you want!? A game where Peach escapes Bowser!?
Yes, and she dresses her like a man...


And here's the thing: On the game idea she proposes, the Princess must dress like a man, use disguises to fight her way through the levels. Why must she wear disguises and pretend to be something she is not!?

If a female is disempowered and needs to be saved: she's a damsel. But now she says that Female characters needing help is Normal and OK!? but only if she's the playable character... or only when You-Know-Who says it's OK.

Basically all it boils down is that these videos are $160,000-ish rants because Game companies are not making the games that SHE WANTS.

Now let's see if she tackles the blatantly sexist DOA Games on the Fighting @#$% Toy...
I guess we'll find out in two months!
