1) Stop making female protagonists overly sexual

Let's acknowledge the obvious here; the majority of gamers are male. I'm not talking about Wii Fit, Super Mario and that stuff. I'm talking about the people who log 10+ hours per session on Modern Warfare and then wonder WHY women don't like them. Those are gamers . . . and they are also men (not trying to sell us short here boys :P).
This is why games like Wet, Velvet Asassin, and Bayonetta kind of puzzle me. I'll be honest, I would have a hard time liking a game with a female protagonist because I love characterization, and I can't relate with a female protagonist due to chromosomal issues.
This does not change just because my character's ass could carry a tea tray across a room. It's also hard to focus on this aspect when several angel/demons are attempting to shove a fence post between my character's breasts.
Now let's say that somehow these games are catering to female gamers and not horny, socially repressed male gamers. Is making all the characters bitchy Victoria Secret models whose combat attire would only be appropriate if they were undercover agents at a Spearmint Rhino club REALLY the way to reach out to this demographic?
All I know is, replacing Bayonetta with Dante really wouldn't detract from my experience . . . though it would be 10x more disturbing when his clothes flew off.
