"An academic thesis published in December 2012 argues that "predation play" - a descriptor of video games that encourage survival at any cost - offers valuable lessons and inspiration for young females.
Elena Bertozzi of Long Island University published her article, titled "Killing for Girls: Predation Play and Female Empowerment," in the Bulletin of Science Technology & Society several weeks ago. "Videogames that simulate predation - games in which the player is being hunted by others and must kill to survive - have long been the province of young males," Bertozzi claims. "Playing games that virtually simulate predation . . . has many benefits for female players.""
As of right now, there are no monopolies in the games industry, and for the sake of the medium as a whole, they never should either.
And yet the biggest tech companies in America are essentially that. They buy up all the small comps only to kill them off and steal what they have, and if they can't buy em they bleed them to death.
Eventually they’ll realize the value is with the employee not the company. Buying an IP means nothing if the people who contributed are let go. They’ll get it one day.

Lol he must be some dad who wants to protect his daughter from horny boys later on in life.
Agreed.
well then...thats a change
Is this a false flag attack? This logic could easily be twisted :/
* looks at 17 year old daughter. ..looks at her boyfriend.....*... agreed..
Her entire point is that girls are not exposed to situations where they gain experience in predation roles, and violent games will teach them how to handle being put in a corner, in regards to gender disparity. Far Cry 3 is apparently a great place to start.
LOL so what would she have young girls do? Stealth stab men in the neck and go on AK-Killing sprees any time they feel discriminated against for being a female? Her coherence in her "studies" is laughable.
