But it's the topic of this thread, dude. I believe Xenuria is one of those attempting to redefine the word "gender" to actually mean "gender role" or "gender identity". The original definition of "gender" meant the same as the noun "sex" and when most people hear the word that's what they think. Often such a discussion becomes hyper-literal, and those with a common understanding of the language are accused (implicitly or explicitly) of intolerance. In truth the language is being deliberately blurred.
It is my understanding that Xenuria chooses to identify with the societal gender role typically associated with a woman, while not actually being one genetically. That is a choice.
I find the language engineering annoying however. It is often done to seek a confrontation, implicitly assigning roles of victim and offender. That's not a good way to have reasonable discussion about any matter, but, yes, that's just my opinion. |

I tried to introduce a female friend to the game, she spent a few hours creating characters for all slots on the account, played thru the noob tutorial with one of them and never logged in again.
Wasn't attacked or anything either, just didn't find it "fun" to play. Please support: export of settings in editable format

Are there any other chick-in-real-life players out there? I hear this game is mostly dudes.
There are lots of girls who play the game. I also know they have their own dedicated chat channel in game. There's a chick named Mint Chip or something like that who runs it. She also has a video blog on YouTube. She's kind of hot.
To get in there, you actually need to be interviewed. Look up Mint Chip and see if you can hook up with her group.
GL, and glad you're playing EvE. We need a balance of the testosterone fest in this crap game. |

We have a female gamer in our corp. At least, one that I know of, there may be more.
She's pretty cool. I frankly wouldn't have known had I not heard her on TS. Well, her incredibly cheery disposition can also be kind of a giveaway. Support showing T2 and faction frequency crystal damage in the info window. (Link was wrong, now fixed) |

Quite sure this can be applied on both sides
But then we should start talking about statistics and figure out we're in 2012 and tendency is reverse, yep more lone chicks than guys, looks like a fake but seems true.

I am a female whose been playing the game since 2004. Don't listen to the trolls; no one is going to send you money. Chribba's is the best advice here.
There are a few real men who play. . though most of those do not play as much as I would like them to... (my husband is one.. been trying to get him back into the game for years now lol). [IMG]http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a208/DawnFrostbringer/OldST.jpg[/IMG] |

When you say Gender "meant" the same as the noun "sex", do you also realize how this exposes a fatal flaw in your argument? Homosexuality used to be in the DSM and "meant" that somebody was psychologically ill and sexually deviant. Your entire argument rests on the idea that just because something "was" that it "is" or still should be. When I talk about gender and topics related to that I am not on a mission to get people to argue or get upset. The goal is to enlighten and discuss things in a civilized fashion.
I am female, my Identification indicates that I am Female and where I live there exist no laws against being Female. I am not attempting to redefine anything, I am pointing out that you are incorrect and either trying to troll or simply lack a proper education on the subject matter. Will consult for ISK |

From http://www.google.com/search?q=define%3A+female :
Quote:Of or denoting the sex that can bear offspring or produce eggs, distinguished biologically by the production of gametes (ova) that can be fertilized by male gametes. Unless you have two X chromosomes, or have a rare condition that still lets you meet the above definition, you are not female. You simply choose to live as one, which is fine. Being feminine is not the same as being female. |

Pro Tip: My Gender is Female, you just defined what female is in the context of biological sex. I really don't think you should post in this thread anymore. So far you have done nothing but get egg on your face and offend people. Xenuria Rising |

But if you're into role-playing, there's a ton of space lesbians. although my eyes were open they might have just as well've been closed

It was The Mittani who made the claim that I was a pedophile, he did this in his CSM thread before the personal attacks were removed. I am not actually a pedophile. I have authored papers on Adolescent behavior and the psychology associated with that. The Mittani is not known for his creativity and this is an example of that.
I have always maintained that I was a Woman.
Can we please not turn this thread into something it's not? Xenuria Rising |
