This is actually from 2022, but I missed it back in the day. This is quite important research imo, and very relevant lately. Link to the paper itself: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0747563222001637

It’s not the onus of a piece of fiction to be “good for society”.
Who said that was a requirement? It’s still a fact that it causes harm
You can’t declare something as a fact just because you want it to be one.
It’s embedded into your argument. If you do not consider it a requirement, then your discussion is irrelevant.
Me arguing something can be harmful for society doesn’t mean I’m arguing it has to be abolished in its entirety. I’m not sure why you think everything has to be black and white since obviously there’s room for artistic use- remember you are the only one who thought that, or perhaps it just wasn’t obvious for you. And can you explain how unrealistic body standards is not bad for society? It isn’t far fetched seeing young people compare to beauty standards they are bombarded with. It doesn’t only happen in video games but in tons of visual media.
You’re replying on a thread specifically citing a paper on how videogame sexualization was found to bring no harm to society. Either provide evidence otherwise, or settle down with the unfounded repeated claims.
You are reading waay to much into that title, man. Their claim is it doesn’t make people more misogynistic. There are still tons of reasons to care about how media conducts itself.
Or do you imagine it’s just a neutral thing that the whites-only crowd would make it impossible to be a black actor again?
I’m referring to this review from NLM looking at 49 papers to investigate the effects of gaming on women. It is possible to have multiple articles that contradict each other
