Women have been held back by male power dynamics.

Wholesome & Inclusive Gaming 4 All

But women have fought back and they won the right to vote.
They won the right to an education.
They won social rights.
And they won the hearts and minds of the whole western world.

As we now turn the page to another year, 2023, we are still not done with our struggle to achieve basic given rights.

Several battles remain:

- Equal Pay for Equal Work
- Protection from toxic male harassment and domestic violence
- Being hired to the positions and getting raises without being part of 'the boys club'
- Entry to male dominated areas held by the patriarchy

As a society we have come far, but not far enough.
Do everything you can in this new year to further the rights and inclusion of women.
Ask yourself what you can do to improve the world.

If you don't know where to start try to look at your own life..
As a gamer what can you do to include women into your spaces?
Stop online harassing women.
Be nice in gaming lobbies and include women gamers in your gaming clans.
Support movies with female lead actresses.

You gotta start somewhere !

Happy New Year 2023 Steamers !

No need to be like that. Try bringing something positive to the table. :)

It is up to men to hold other men accountable for their actions.

It's not a race, sex or religious war

It's a class war

I have a power dynamic?

kaibarnard 1 Jan, 2023 @ 1:05pm

It's a fine goal, and I support it but the fan club can be overzealous

Also equality =/= 'my turn on top' which some parties think is their 'due'

They clearly aren't being held back enough

Stopped reading here. Domestic violence and harassment are not gender exclusive and I'm so tired of people acting like it is.

I think we should give women everywhere, (the countries where they don't - yet) basic rights!

Western countries are where the revolution started but it must go into the countries to the East of Europe and to the south into Africa!

In Asia women is earning more.
And economy of asia is GDP $41.78 trillion.

Also I think it's time to stop. One year focusing on gender issues, left or right issue is another 1 year wasted in creativity, technology and other progression. Let the leaders do it, they are paid millions to solve those social issues. :P

Why not learn how to make megaman remix music. Will be good if we can become music composers and share music in off-topic.
