Why are female superheroes all skinny supermodels?

Skinny game charactersI’m feeling fat. I mean, I’m not, at all. But playing video games can make a girl feel like she doesn’t measure up.

Have you checked out the women in computer video games? They make supermodels look fat and flat-chested! I was playing the latest Laura Croft Tomb Raider game today, and Laura is so unrealistically skinny and sexy. No way someone with her body would have the strength to hurt a bad guy!

These games must be designed by guys, eh. Grrrr.

If you don’t believe me, check out this website that’s got pictures of 50 of the Greatest Female Characters in the History of Video Games. They’re all anorexic and most of them have big boobs! How is that possible, guys?!
