Stripper chimes in on Hitman: Absolution's Saints

[MOnk]

I think the real issue here - and it's one definitely worth thinking about - is that violence against women in games is so often accompanied by sexually provocative imagery. Male enemies in games are typically generic, copy-pasted soldiers. Female enemies (and female characters in general) are, more often than not, hyper-sexualised. It is different.

I can agree with that, I didn't really understand the point of them dressing like 'stripper nuns'. You would think if they wanted to assassinate someone they would blend into the environment, dress like maids or patrons or something like that.

I still don't they are portrayed as subhuman like this person suggests.

It's a silly story. The stripper is saying that strippers wouldn't walk around in public dressed like the saints, fair to them. But the saints aren't strippers, they're assassin's. I doubt assassins and strippers have the same mind set.
