Recently, I had the great opportunity to moderate the "Why It's STILL Awesome Being a Female in the Video Games Industry" panel at Pax East 2015 in Boston, MA. I had a great time, reunited with some great acquaintances, made some new friends, and, most importantly, participated in a very important discussion regarding the state of the industry as it relates to women and their progress over the last few decades.
After the panel, I was asked via a number of methods a couple of questions that I have seen pop up again and again: "Why did they have a dude host a female panel?", and, "Why didn't you all talk about Gamer Gate?" In the video below, I provide my responses.
