Video games, gender, and accessibility!

How are video games reflective of our attitudes towards nature? How can video games provide physiological benefits while still excluding certain groups of people who may benefit the most from these benefits? What sorts of representation can be found within video games and what does this say about the culture surrounding video games, writ large? Join the OOE girlies as we dive into the ins and outs of feminist histories in gaming, Sip N' Puff, and about how playing Club Penguin is drag.
