Feminist Frequency is a web series created by Anita Sarkeesian and co-written by video remixer Jonathan McIntosh to analyze pop culture from a feminist perspective. The point of the series is to point out female character archetypes, mostly negative criticism towards what she regards as the Unfortunate Implications that ensue from various shows and movies. Part of her stated goal is to educate people on feminist theories using pop culture to communicate basic concepts. In addition to covering individual subjects and top best/worst lists, there is a twelve-part mini-series on "Tropes vs. Women", started in 2011.Near the end of 2012, she announced her "Tropes vs. Women in Video Games" which was planned to have 12 parts when completed. Both works just so happened to use TV Tropes as inspiration. She started a successful fundraiser for her video game videos that later received even more support in response to a harassment campaign against her. The first video of this series was released in March of 2013. She announced in January 2016 that she would be ending the project, citing that she did not feel the passion for the series that she used to have.Feminist Frequency was later turned into an official non-profit organization. Though started and run by Anita Sarkeesian, Feminist Frequency as a project is technically a group effort. Another contributor is Jonathan McIntosh, credited as a producer (who also has his own channel, Pop Culture Detective). Game reviewer Carolyn Petit was brought on as a production assistant in late 2014, going on to co-write episodes of the "Tropes vs. Women in Video Games" series and reviewing several games for the channel. The other members of the project choose to remain anonymous.Feminist Frequency has been known to receive very controversial reactions, so for the love of all that is holy, please refrain from complaining and creator bashing, and keep contributions to facts about the series. | |

Darker and Edgier | |
| Feminist Frequency (Web Video) / int_14beeefd | comment |
The second focuses on more modern games and the trope's combination with other tropes for a Darker and Edgier twist. Murdering the hero's wife and forcing him to rescue his daughter combines the Damsel in Distress with Stuffed into the Fridge. Some combine the two (called by Sarkeesian "Damsel In The Fridge") by getting the hero to rescue the murdered wife's soul (usually from hell), and some have the twist of getting the hero to murder her himself at the end of the game to rescue her from mutilation or just to get at the villain, sometimes with her begging to be freed (combining it with Mercy Kill, called by Sarkeesian "Euthanized Damsel"). She then places the games' violence against women in the context of reality, focusing on the fact that the final combination rationalizes violence against a woman for her own good and the fact that this is a rationalization often used in abusive relationships. | |

Damsel in Distress | |
| Feminist Frequency (Web Video) / int_4160410d | comment |
The first three are about the Damsel in Distress. The first focuses on the definition (a woman rendered completely helpless so the hero can rescue her) and the history of the trope from some of its earliest incarnations up to the year 2000. The second focuses on more modern games and the trope's combination with other tropes for a Darker and Edgier twist. Murdering the hero's wife and forcing him to rescue his daughter combines the Damsel in Distress with Stuffed into the Fridge. Some combine the two (called by Sarkeesian "Damsel In The Fridge") by getting the hero to rescue the murdered wife's soul (usually from hell), and some have the twist of getting the hero to murder her himself at the end of the game to rescue her from mutilation or just to get at the villain, sometimes with her begging to be freed (combining it with Mercy Kill, called by Sarkeesian "Euthanized Damsel"). She then places the games' violence against women in the context of reality, focusing on the fact that the final combination rationalizes violence against a woman for her own good and the fact that this is a rationalization often used in abusive relationships. The third is about role reversal and the differences of the Distressed Dude from the Damsel in Distress. In it, she also discusses the continued use of the Damsel in Distress, portrayal of ironic sexism in indie and mobile games, and the distinction between subversion of the trope as opposed to parodies of the trope. | |

Unfortunate Implications | |
| Feminist Frequency (Web Video) / int_4bc5e1e8 | comment |
Unfortunate Implications: Invoked. The series presents an analysis of how many tropes about women play into double standards and unfortunate implications, promoting sexist values without conscious intent but effective methods. Anita Sarkeesian commonly shares a very brief and abstract analysis of an aggregate of works, selecting a few works to reference by name and pointing out how the work makes their unfortunate implications. | |

Actual Pacifist: She has been shown to have a strong dislike of violent media in all forms, and has praised games like Gone Home and Portal for not relying on it to tell their stories. She has dissented from other feminist commentaries and criticized True Grit and Mad Max: Fury Road for connecting supposed empowerment of women with Violence Really Is the Answer. Buffy the Vampire Slayer seems to be the exception for her. | |

The fifteenth video discusses two tropes that are implications of Men Are Strong, Women Are Pretty: Only One Female Mold and Men Get Old, Women Get Replaced. Sarkeesian discusses how male characters are allowed to have a variety of builds, body shapes and ages, while female characters are usually young and slim to fit the ideal beauty standard. | |

The thirteenth video is about "Lingerie is not Armor," focusing on the ways female characters get sexualized in situations that make little sense, the ridiculous nature of the Chainmail Bikini, and the linkage of sexualization to female characters' power. Sarkeesian also discusses the ways that video game developers can prioritize realistic combat or athletic attire over Jiggle Physics, and the rare examples of female characters expressing non-sexualized sexual desire. | |

Troperiffic | |
| Feminist Frequency (Web Video) / int_c89f0472 | comment |
The ninth video is about the concept of "Women as Reward," with a focus on several Troperiffic examples of Fanservice. These include cinematics with Standard Hero Reward, Smooch of Victory, and Rescue Sex; Easter Eggs that result in topless or otherwise sexual scenes, characters, or events; unlockable costumes which overlap with Fetish and Chainmail Bikini; moments where sex or sexualized interaction rewards players with Experience Points or an increase to Life Meter or Sprint Meter; Collection Sidequests involving Fanservice; and Achievements for sex, having sex with multiple women, ogling female characters, or sexual interactions with nonconsenting female characters. Sarkeesian discusses the way these tropes reinforce a feeling of entitlement to women's sexuality, as with the behavior of cat callers. | |

Action Girl: She tends to be critical of these kinds of characters, seeing them as playing into male-centric standards of "power" and "strength" rather than truly demonstrating an understanding of what makes a well-developed female character. There are a few instances of this trope she does like, though, such as Buffy the Vampire Slayer. | |

Distressed Dude | |
| Feminist Frequency (Web Video) / int_f9e16ef | comment |
The third is about role reversal and the differences of the Distressed Dude from the Damsel in Distress. In it, she also discusses the continued use of the Damsel in Distress, portrayal of ironic sexism in indie and mobile games, and the distinction between subversion of the trope as opposed to parodies of the trope. | |
