This is such a straw man and also completely false.
The fact of the matter is that, being vastly male-oriented, male-produced, and male-dominated industries, film and video games are incredibly misogynistic and chauvinistic.

This isn't a thing. Depending on the situation, a film might get called out for glorifying or normalizing violence against women or using violence against women for sheer shock value, but that's about it.

On top of that many feminists expect women to have the same rights as men, but then don't want men to have the same rights as women do. Equality goes both ways.

What? What rights do women have that men don't? Maternity leave?
