White not exactly a leap forward in male-female relations, i personally found the sex cards in the first game to be great fun. I never once felt demeaned by them, not did i find that the narrative of the game necessarily demeaned the women depicted in them. At the time, sexual encounters in games were relatively rare and this was one innovative (if perhaps primitive, by our current standards) way to deal with it. I found them quite tame, even if US game rating agencies saw the need to to tone them down even further (see the discussion the wiki).
Similarly, i found the short videos in the second game a step forward, if perhaps not to everyone's taste. Geralt is a sexy protagonist and in the books, he does get his fair share of female attention, even if his heart ultimately belongs to one particular sorceress. I think suggesting that the Witcher games are poster children for misogyny is misguided.
