"Children Now" is a national child advocacy organization that works to improve the quality of news and entertainment media for both children and about children's issues. Yesterday, they released the new research relating Video Games and its headline was Top-selling Video Games 'Unhealthy' for Girls. According to the research, "Almost half of top-selling console video games contain negative messages about girls. Those negative messages include violence, promoting unrealistic body images and stereotypical female characteristics, such as provocative sexuality, high-pitched voices and fainting." This research examined the top ten selling games for each of the three most popular games console systems, Sony PlayStation, Sega Dreamcast and Nintendo 64. Overall, 54% of the games surveyed contained female characters whereas 92% contained male characters. However, the female characters that those games displayed were with significant body exposure, : 23% exposed breasts or cleavage, 31% exposed thighs, 15% exposed behinds and 31% exposed stomachs or midriffs. Those negative images about girls convey wrong messages to both girls and boys. However, it might have more influence on girls. During this holiday season, parents may want have those information in mind and think more closely about purchasing games for their children.
