I let my girlfriend (not the inflatable one...never the 2 shall meet) pick out my clothes and never had any negative feedback.

I've found people tend to pay less attention to gender when you are consistently better at games than they are. If females want to be respected by males in video games, they should learn to become good at video games. I take any game I play very seriously and always strive to be among the best players and to be known for my skill and ability. It works for me.

Why should a woman have to be exceedingly good at something to avoid harassment and stereotyping?

Hell, go a step farther and replace "woman" with any group that's a target of harassment, if you like.

Here is an article that hit it on the head for me awhile back:

"One of my last memories in LAWN was sitting in my alpha Maelstrom waiting for a fleet to begin when an actual human female had the temerity to say something to the FC on the Goon comms we were on. There was a three or four second delay, and then the comms from at least 60 or 70 Goon pilots opened and what poured fourth was a chorus of monkey-like howling, grunting, and moaning that went on for at least 20 seconds. I don't care if it was meant in jest or not, it was surreal... animalistic."

Well yeah, there is that. I'd take it for granted that if a female goes on comms, she could expect that kind of reaction, especially in bigger alliance fleets. You have a fair point, females shouldn't have to shy away from going on comms because of this kind of thing happening. I guess that is a form of discrimination.

I'm kinda of the position that men and women tend toward different activities. They are of course able to do both but maybe not as well.

This subject always causes butthurt and is not worth discussing as noone has reasonable opinions or arguments.

Really? What's so unreasonable about requesting equality and empathy?

You blew it RIGHT there with that.

Aggressive denial of the possibility you might be wrong. In essence, THIS:



Muestereate actually made some valid points backed up with evidence and reasoning but all you do is cry and deny.

I get the feeling that you're here to cause an argument based around beliefs that you really believe are true, when in the real world, they are not. There are a lot of people like this on the internet. We usually call them trolls.

I understand the first part of your argument is known as "denial" and the second is "ad hominem".

Muestereate actually made some valid points backed up with evidence and reasoning but all you do is cry and deny.

See, you're trolling. If you could be so kind as to neatly list everything you believe is wrong, I would be more than happy to school you (as I once did on Transgender issues), unless the rest of the rational thinkers would be inclined to do so.

You're assuming you're right from the start. I actually feel that there's more positive discrimination towards females in this game than negative.

We wouldn't care about a Troll's Criteria for 'reasonable' anyway...........
