It is less stressful to worry about all this "stuff". It's odd because as a kid none of my friends or I cared about what was sexist to fictional characters or what was otherwise "wrong" within the games we played. We just wanted to escape a few hours and have a good time.
When I started getting online it was as if gaming suddenly became an academic and political VIP self anointed "gentleman's club". All I could think was "Hey, stop trying to turn my hobby into work & personal agendas,yo!"
Don't get me wrong. I'm all for games evolving and characters becoming more multifaceted and deep. However, I don't believe the absence of sexual content and violence will automatically make all games better across the board.
