* ThenLetMeBeEvil: Laments that a lot of the people she grew up with in a poor, multicultural neighborhood, who had a lot of potential, were prejudged continuously, which broke their spirits and led them to be the sort of people they were treated as being.

** [[BigBreastPride On the other hand,]] she also frequently comments cheerfully on her attributes and is [[MsFanservice happy to show them off.]] She has expressed severe displeasure with the idea of busty video game characters being inherently "unrealistic" and in need of having their breasts shrunk to look more like "real women," and the fact that this was done to Lara Croft in the [[VideoGame/TombRaider2013 2013 reboot]] was one of her (several) complaints about those games.

* InsaneTrollLogic: Dedicated a video to dissecting a group of trolls more outrageous claims about her. They'd made one accusing her of being fat and ugly (among other charges) as well as being a worker at a notable RL high class Toronto strip club. Became a CrowningMomentOfFunny when she pointed out this made no sense since she knew several women who worked there and they were anything but.

* TheHorseshoeEffect: This is one of her major criticisms of Sarkeesian in the series linked in the description, that she loops back to a kind of "benevolent patriarchy". She accuses Sarkeesian of trying to force all female characters into a very narrow set of roles and appearances, and thinks that her influence has had a negative effect on the portrayal of women as diverse individuals. The biggest is that she thinks Sarkeesian's complaints about all women with large breasts being automatically sexually objectified and not valid characters (which she takes rather personally) is just objectification itself, especially when Sarkeesian started calling such characters "Fighting F8ck Toys".
