Men behind the unpopular popular

Pop feminism is extremely unpopular among male chauvinists and some feminists. They see girl power invasion of mainstream media and entertainment--the likes of Lara Croft, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Ms. Underworld, and all other gun-toting and sword-swinging vixens -- as an unjustified assertion of female supremacy over the male species.

My question is who created those girls? Lara Croft was invented by Mr. Toby Gard, Buffy was by Mr. Joss Whedon, and Underworld Evolution girl by Patrick Tatopoulos. Think about any popular fierce female film or videogame character and tell me who her creators are.

i just remembered the name of the only woman i know who invented a game na man naman ang bida -- si roberta williams, inventor of the popular king's quest series. ironic, isn't it? si bloodrayne, lalaki rin ang nag-invent.
