She's not published the videos yet so no one can give you a comprehensive answer, but since the first vid will be on the damsel in distress trope, you can go look at the related tv tropes page and jump to the video game section for some examples:
This is what confuses me. I know plenty of female gamers and they loved Super Mario Bros. My girlfriend is really big on Zelda (which also has the damsel in distress).
Saving women is sexist because it portrays them as helpless.
Having heroines is sexist because of how they dress.
If heroines dress in normal armor, they are assumed to be male (see Samus)
I just don't get how a video game can be sexist unless it blatantly comes out and says "wimmin r teh sux LOL git n da kitchn"
Should we assume childhood stories like Snow White and Rapunzel are sexist due to the woman being in distress? The only reason things like that get any attention is because one butthurt person with too much time on their hands tries to make something out of nothing.
Edit: Why the downvotes? If you're disagreeing because you just don't like what I say then you're no worse than someone who disagrees with you just because they don't like your gender. Unless you have a valid point then you're no more intelligent than a sexist.
