Does the person in captivity make any effort to escape on their own or subvert the plans of the captorįor the moment I think we should limit it to capture/escape/rescue scenarios.whether or not the Damsel survives or escapes of their own volition.So from what I understand, here's what we want to know about each game:
After we're done with Damsels, we may decide to tackle other issues within fiction. The Feminist Frequency thread is probably not the best place to do this, though, since there are so many other topics of conversation which tend to get in the way of the efforts of said census. As suggested in the Feminist Frequency thread, it would be helpful to actually get some hard data on the usage of Damsel in Distress for how pervasive the trope is in video games and how often the rescuers and damsels are of one gender or another.
