* ''Toys/LEGOFriends'': she criticised the line at launch for using the PinkProductPloy trope and (in her opinion) the HotterAndSexier design of the Minidolls compared to the classic minifigs. She also felt the line fell into MenActWomenAre, especially in marketing/advertising.

* ActualPacifist: She has been shown to have a strong dislike of violent media in all forms, and has praised games like ''VideoGame/GoneHome'' and ''VideoGame/{{Portal}}'' for not relying on it to tell their stories. She has dissented from other feminist commentaries and criticized ''Film/TrueGrit'' and ''Film/MadMaxFuryRoad'' for connecting supposed empowerment of women with ViolenceReallyIsTheAnswer.

* ''Literature/{{Twilight}}'': She argues that, while she hates it as much as most people, she feels that they do so for all the wrong reasons, and that the "right" reason to hate it is because Edward is a creepy, possessive stalker, as the character himself references him as in the companion book ''Midnight Sun''. While she doesn't go into the details of the feminist analysis, it echoes a tidal wave of feminist backlash to the ''Twilight'' series easily accessible with a web search and the video is not so much an effort to analyze ''Twilight'' as it is a reference to a larger discussion.

* ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'': She discussed the show in The Evil Demon Seductress and The MysticalPregnancy episodes. She has also mentioned it often as one of her favorite shows and characters. She has also published one dissertation in which she compares Buffy to [[Literature/{{Twilight}} Bella Swan]], and considers Buffy to be a rare example of an ActionGirl character "done right".

** The sixteenth video discusses the "Sinister Seductress," which comprises several tropes regarding female sexuality: FanDisservice and BodyHorror on the one hand; TheVamp and HotAsHell on the other; and the [[BreadEggsBreadedEggs crossover between the two]]. Sarkeesian discusses the UnfortunateImplications of [[EvilIsSexy depicting female sexuality as "evil"]].

* UnfortunateImplications: {{Invoked}}. The series presents an analysis of how many tropes about women play into double standards and unfortunate implications, promoting sexist values without conscious intent but effective methods. Anita Sarkeesian commonly shares a very brief and abstract analysis of an aggregate of works, selecting a few works to reference by name and pointing out how the work makes their unfortunate implications.
