Polygon - Grand Theft Auto 5's misogyny is a problem its creators must finally address.
"Take-Two and publishing sub-brand Rockstar want to be able to say whatever they like about whomever they like, without consequence. At the same time as they reduce GTA 5 to a mere purchasing choice, they also want you to believe that the game is an essential work of art that is being stifled by a mob of censors.

But this is really about a corporation profiting from the depiction of some of the most brutalized members of our society, being further brutalized, for fun. It's about a game that displays incredibly bad taste, that has made ignorant choices, and that is happy to trade on the misery of the victims who it portrays so mercilessly.

Look, let's get one thing straight. We live in a free society. GTA 5 should be available for any adult who wants to buy it, through any retailer who wants to sell it. But that doesn't mean its makers ought to be allowed to feel comfortable dismissing its critics in the most derisory fashion imaginable."
