If it makes you feel any better, just keep in mind that they're probably obese GUYS with pimples all over their face who can't get a date and have nothing better to do.

They're actually the ones that are obese and have pimples all over there face.  Don't listen to them.  Just keep on playing your game and don't let it get on your nerves.

I have 4 friends who are female that i play WoW with. They are all hideously bad looking. Im sure thats not an exact average but i doubt its very far from it.

If you really have problems with it just stop telling people you are a girl?

They're just insecure. How else do they get all these lovely visuals of "your face"? They look in a mirror and say what they see.

I'm a guy, but I really don't care about the genders of people I play with, I care about how good they are and if they're fun to play with. Honestly, some of the best people I've played with online have been girls, both the most skilled and the most fun. Many people are just ignorant, and if you have to play with people like that, just drop the game and find a new crowd.

Dont talk in the headset? You either want to play and use voicechat enough to put up with it or you dont. Either way dont complain. Nobody is making you do it.

What's more immature than them saying that is that you let it get to you. Stick up your nose and let it be, as you're never going to stop people from being stupid. That's really the only explanation. The real question is - How much stupidity can you tolerate in your day to day hobby? :P

They probably never even talked to a girl before, most of them anyways, especially in Gears of Wars, half of them probably don't even leave their house. I know quite a few girls who play some video games, and most are really beautiful too. It's just a sterotype that girls who play video games are automatically ugly and obese.

It's also just a stereotype that these people sit around in their parents' basement, sustaining themselves solely on Cheetos and Mountain Dew, and avoiding the light of the sun like vampires. All these generalizations amount to the same thing. You guys are just as inconsiderate and rude as the people the TC is discussing.

At any rate. gamergoddess, I can see your dilemma, I really can, but nobody's going to be able to change it until attitudes regarding girls playing videogames changes. So, until then, here are the options as I see 'em: 1) Ignore their stupidity. You'll probably be doing this with other stuff too, so might as well just include talks regarding your social life and/or personal appearance or hygiene. 2) Start/Join a female gaming clan. They're out there - I swear it. If you're having trouble finding one, then start one. Nothing will shut up a group of obnoxious people faster than getting owned and ridiculed on their own turf. This way a) Everyone on your team will be a girl, and b) If your clan ends up being any good, then you'll be able to turn a few heads, insofar as people who feel that gender matters in something as trivial as this, mind you. 3) Stop playing videogames, and stop using the internet. Alternately: Stop using headsets, and don't divulge your gender to anyone. Those are your three safest bets. Outside of that, there's nothing anyone can do regarding this issue of ignorance. Hope for the best.

Good ol' internet. Something about the fact that one is mostly anonymous online leads a lot of people to act like total jerkoffs. Don't think that you're being singled out for being just a girl, those people are probably the type that also scream racial slurs and stuff like '****ing haX0r n00b, stop using the (insert name of whatever weapon here), you (insert some more idiocy here)!!!' at people who beat them.

This is why I try to avoid online play. There's too many idiots that detract from the genuinely good players :roll:

Since when did it matter what people think or say over online games? It's a game girl. Why should you care what people have to say. It's not a social meeting, your there to kick ass and have fun.

HEY!  Get back to knitting!!!  jk jk jk  :D
But seriously, I think they're just trying to mess with your head.  They're playing mind games with you.  They'e just hoping to piss you off enough to distract you.  Because really, no guy wants to lose to a girl at anything.  Well, most guys anyway.  So just keep your cool and go in there and kick their ass's.  It'll make the pwnage all the more sweeter.  Just be sure to mention about 100 times that they got smoked by a girl.

Well you just stereotyped every guy playing online as being sexist, and a jerk. I'm not, some are just under the impression that "hot" girls don't play video games, and only dorky ugly ones do. Which is NOT true of course. All people of different backgrounds play video games. My sister plays mostly racing games, and i'm trying to get her into other ones. I tried to get my mom to play video games so that she will be a fan, and might be me some.

Well I think you're a nice girl.  I got some girl-friends who are beautiful that can outdo me in games like Tekken, and even some shooters :) Stereotypes are useless, just like ignorance.

If you run into those individuals online, you could always use mute, my friends do that a lot for annoying people in general.

Gamers will always be gamers. They have their own rules and standards. It's something you can't do much about. I admit that there are some that like to insult people just to feel better about themselves. They do that to try to erase a loss that happened to them recently. It's a pointless instinct for the ones that insult others. I know quite a bit of chick gamers and they're pretty cool to hang with. I treat every gamer equally and that is all that matters.

As for the Frag Dolls winning the MLG Tournament, they did that to gain reputation as a gamer and to help revolutionalize gaming as a whole. I have no objection to that and I'm glad that the gaming industry is evolving for the better. Never let any insults prevent you from having fun.

it's one thing talking online, and another thing in RL. online is probably the only place where most those guys have enough confidence to talk to a girl (even if they're saying bad stuff) to be honest, if this were RL and you came up to talk to me i'd probably freeze up (i'm a very nervous person):oops:

Well. I know some guys that have the attitude of women doing what they should be doing. Like they belong in the kitchen, but I'll stop there. If you hear more, things won't go pretty. I just had enough of them treating females like that. So I left them and they think they're cool. Anyway, who cares what they say. As long as you're happy doing what you're doing, does it matter what people say about you? Do you want to change the life-style you enjoy for them? I think not.

Not all male gamers treat women differently. It just seems like that because the few who discriminate tend to be louder than those who don't.

get more girls gaming and this will change. let me tell you the wii will change this. Ive got one and girls just love it. Most of them actually see the point of gaming now. And its very funny watching all that "Oh, men are just so competitive." attitude disappearing when someone blows up a balloon quicker than them.
