And profit don't forget that. My biggest problem is with the current feminist movements is the exploitation of using hot button topic of video games. I know and realize they have been a boys world for a long time but now with more of that culture being popular and socially acceptable for both men and women. I believe some feminist use it as a way to stir up controversy with the over sexualization of women for profit. I believe their are somethings that can be changed in the game design of certain characters men and women alike. But in the case of my fiancee she plays video games and generally could careless about a characters appearance as long as the game play is fun. I feel almost the same way. I don't think its outwards appearances that are driving back women. Now one thing that for sure is a big problem is the treatment of women in games by the community. You play a game generally dominated by male players such a FPS or a game like Dota 2. Those games that have voice chat I know most women wont use it because of the abuse and harassment just for being a girl. That is a major problem and drives them into hiding when they should be able to enjoy it with our being harasses because they have "breast and a vagina".

I think you pointed out the main cause was the general anonymity of the internet. Most stuff said to a random stranger online you would never really say to a random stranger in real life. But still these women have to hide their voice in fear of being harassed in game. Generally less so in MMORPGs but still some there with constant flirting.
