I'll add more as I find them.--Cúchullain t/c 18:14, 11 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Good gracious. Where do you find the time... Anyway, perhaps a sub talk page for suggested sources might be in our future with this. Zero Serenity (talk - contributions) 18:23, 11 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Penny is a columnist at The New Statesman and has a Harvard fellowship, so she has the credentials at the very least. That said, a single chapter out of a full length book isn't much to go on. Euchrid (talk) 02:49, 12 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

A few more:

  • Karen Frost-Arnold (March 2013) "Trustworthiness and Truth: The Epistemic Pitfalls of Internet Accountability". Episteme 11:1. Cambridge University Press. Touches on Sarkeesian's experience as an instance where internet anonymity may become a "net epistemic detriment" to disadvantaged groups if it's used more for harassment than for support.
  • Todd Martens (September 6, 2014). "THE PLAYER; Ugly side of gaming comes to light; A dispute has led to recent threats and harassment." Los Angeles Times. Discusses the 2014 harassment of Sarkeesian and others.
  • Paul Muhlhauser and Daniel Schafer (March 2014). "Avengendering of the Lambs" www.womenandlanguage.org. See also Women and Language 37:1, p. 148. An "alternative scholarship" multimedia work inspired by Feminist Frequency.
  • Janet Bing (September 2013) "Gotcha: What Social Activists can Learn from Pranksters". Women & Language 36:2 (pp. 97-106). P. 103 mentions Sarkeesian as a modern successor to earlier feminist activists.

Two more:

  • Trammell, Aaron; Gilbert, Anne (November 2004). "Extending Play to Critical Media Studies". Games & Culture. 9 (6). Sage Publications: 391–405.: Page 393 note 1 cites Sarkeesian's videos and experience as one of the real-world effects of video gaming that demands critical approach.
  • Han, Hye-Won (November 2004). "Characterization of Female Protagonists in Video Games: A Focus on Lara Croft". Asian Journal of Women's Studies. 20 (3). Ewha Womans University: 27–48.: This one cites and responds to Sarkeesian's videos directly. The author cites Sarkeesian as one of the recent critics applying gender theory to video game criticism. According to Han, Sarkeesian gives a "macroscopic and genealogical perspective" of characters and traits, which Han wants to apply to Lara Croft specifically. She later cites Sarkeesian on the Damsels in Distress trope in games.
