Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Why video games need feminism and feminism needs video games.You play like a girl: it's meant to be an insult, accusing a player of subpar, unfun playing. If you're a girl, and you grow up, do you play like a womanwhatever that means? In this provocative and enlightening book, Shira Chess urges us to play like feminists. Furthermore, she urges us to play video games like feminists. Playing like a feminist is empowering and disruptive; it exceeds the boundaries of gender yet still advocates for gender equality. Playing like a feminist offers a new way to think about how humans play and also a new way to think about how feminists do their feministing. Chess argues that feminism need video games as much as video games need feminism.Video games, Chess tells us, are primed for change. Roughly half of all players identify as female, and Gamergate galvanized many of gaming's disenfranchised voices. Games themselves are in need of a creative platformexpanding, metaphysical explosion; feminism can make games better. Chess reflects on the importance of play, and playful protest, and how feminist video games can help us rethink the ways that we tell stories. She proposes Women's Gaming Circleswhich would function like book clubs for gamingas a way for feminists to take back play. (An appendix offers a blueprint for organizing a gaming circle.) Play and games can be powerful. Chess's goal is for all of usregardless of gender orientation, ethnicity, ability, social class, or stance toward feminismto spend more time playing as a tool of radical disruption.
