Nerfing gender roles and rigid masculinity: A practical guide to gender-sensitive game safety and design
Our purpose in creating this guidance is to provide insights and informed considerations for gaming companies to spark meaningful, collaborative conversations on approaching game safety with a gender-sensitive lens. This was developed with the intention of supporting adolescent boys, but the recommendations also contribute towards making games more gender-inclusive across the spectrum of identities.
