Reflection:

What was interesting was how our practices of looking or gazing change when viewed through screens. In the section it talks about how few females are portrayed in video games or do not associate themselves with video games. Why do women become objects in video games? What is the effect of having them in video games? Does it benefit the profits or the people playing the games and looking at them. It was also interesting to learn that women were being harassed. We have also learned that we have not really progressed from sexual pleasure within the gaming world.
