Don’t be morally bankrupt when it comes to sexism in gaming. There are dozens of studios doing underhand tactics like sexist ads, or even those that polarise domestic abuse, which are categorically wrong. Thank you to Mariam Ahmad and Gamesforum for shining a light on this and asking me my opinion on this really important matter.

Supporting and amplifying. The game industry does indeed need a wake up call. Maybe this is it? Sponsors, developers, publishers and platforms cannot reward bad behaviour. Its time to pull the plug on toxic streamers. And where does this start? With streaming platforms. This isn't "Minority Report". This is simply Trust & Safety. This is player moderation and content moderation. If a player or streamer harasses, grooms, threatens, doxes, or does other behavior that breaks terms of service, is illegal, or threatens player safety, especially for minors, that platform must act.
