Anita's Law is an internet law that exists because of the work of Anita Sarkeesian, who spends a lot of time talking about the way women are portrayed in popular media. It states: Online discussion of sexism or misogyny quickly results indisproportionate displays of sexism and misogyny.[6] This exists because Anita is a feminist who usually focuses on how women are either not shown as advancing plot on their own, not shown at all, or shown in highly stereotypical ways. And, as unsurprisingly, the responses to her were often incredibly over the top, including threats of violence.
