This isn't really a problem of just videogames. Shows, books, movies, music, they all can be sexist just as much. The reason that many of the games she are pointing at have this thing is that that they are western games made for young adult males, look at movies targeted at this same group and it will have the same kind of patterns.
Videogames can be tasteful though, it all depends, games like Journey are certaintly not like this, and theres no reason that more games can't be like this.
The thing is with alot of these games they are showing stuff in the worst possible light, in GTA everyone's terrible, youre a mass murder and the women are whores. Or in a game like Metro Last Light, they do their dancing because they are stuck in tunnels and their are not many jobs for anyone, including women, and so they just ended up being dancers. As long as it makes sense I don't think it's too offensive, infact some women like doing that kind of dancing.
Of course I think it'd be cool if you went to some gay club with guys in cages in some game, I think that'd be great. Heck, just gender swap the next COD or GTA with girls as the protags and guys as the people being exploited, I think that'd be interesting.
For real though, it's just a young medium, and the positions women are in can change, I look forward to it.
