Representation:
1. Woman are usually over-sexualised in games by wearing very skimpy outfits and nearly always having huge sexual features (breasts,hips,etc) but when they are not presented in this way the female characters are "cheerleaders" by this i mean they cheer the main protagonist on whilst doing nothing.
2. She reinforces the stereotypes of female characters in media as she is seen as a "sex" symbol suggesting her as a tool for men.Also she originally only wore very skimpy outfits in her video games,and her backstory is about her following her fathers work following the stereotype of woman being behind men or in their shadow.
3. She subverts stereotypes as she is the main protagonist in her game and not a side character to a man.Also in her newer games she no longer wears minimal clothes subverting how most female characters are presented.
4. Some people believe that the video game industry are sexist because of how most female characters are presented with them wearing skimpy and tight outfits and people believe that this needs to change because of how it presents all woman.
5. I think originally Lara croft was desighned to appeal to male gamers because of her original clothes but over time Lara Croft has become a empowering feminist icon as she now wears less revealing clothes but also appealing to male gamers as she is still known as a "sex symbol".
