This may sound a little sexist to some (On the internetz? Who woulda thought...), but after a recent spate of being in XX heavy squads, I do kinda wish I could play with 'girls' more often than 'boys' for one particular reason:
As well as being (unnecessarily) laid back - I'm usually kinda, sorta...'medicated' when I'm playing DUST - listening to guys rage over mic kinda assaults my brain and earballs in an unpleasant way - listening to women rage is (usually...) lol-inducing or sometimes just kinda adorable...
You probably don't know me. But next time you get gunned down or exploded by a Valor scout...check the name.

You're adorable!  Sadly the same Alpha rage male conversation is half the reason why in my estimate that 80% of us don't use mic's. I mean I don't cause I have kids and I need the headphones. If my kids heard half of what comes out guys mouth's they would .....A.Emulate B. Be offended at what some say to their MOM & C. I'm a widow of a Former Force Recon Marine. NONE of you have the technical or operational aptitude to use the com's correctly. Most of it is comm traffic of a personal nature ....."******* Proto stomping assholes" --yeah not relevant.
I think this is the issue for me too. The occasional surprise expletive when sniped or shotgunned etc. is understandable - but spending the next 5mins bitching how redline snipers are 'pussies', or how tanks and RRs are OP etc. doesn't do anything but irritate whoever you're on comms with. I don't mind if its done in an entertaining way, but the actual anger seems unnecessary.
Luckily not all guys are like that - otherwise I'd be begging for access to the all female chat as well.
Scouts in particular tend to stay calm and professional...

I had to read through all the above to figure out what you are referring to.
I still have no clue.
