Interesting one this. I was just thinking about how men and women are depicted in games. Men [especially leading charaters] are depicted as young, 20-30 somethings, athletic, stubble an option with manly voices. Women are normally shown as 20-30, skimpy outifts with legs and/or breasts a feature, whose role is either to guide or follow male characters, or to kick baddies' backsides into next year [technically 2008 now].

Isn't it great!! :D

Feel free to bring up some points about how this is sexist.
