Hmm. I am not sure how it is now, but in 2013 it seemed that all the top Corps each had at least one woman.
Immortal Guides only ever had an 11 year old girl. I always thought there was great irony in that. Like we were half way to being an important Corp.
Of course I am certain that several women have come through my Corp over the years, but new players often don't have mics, and there are good reasons for women to pretend not to have mics unless they are confident they can hold their own against any of the men they play with. I mean, when was the last time you heard a woman on coms who was not a PC level player?
While I do think the stereotype of women gamers being generally better at social organization, and thus making good Directors, seems to hold some truth, like any stereotype there are likely plenty of exceptions out there. So I would suggest putting a few more criteria on your selection of directors than simply gender. I would also point out that there are some men out there with good social organization skills as well.
Of course, circling back to my first point, I guess I can understand wanting a Female on your PC team, because that seems to be one of the signs of a successful Corp for some reason.

Hell, even my wife was better than I am, and she refused to squad up because she did not think she was good enough.

Hand eye is your brain sending signals to your hands. Then you move depending on how much your brain told your hand to move. Your sensitivity might be to high, but you statement below is completely false to a certain extent. If you were playing baseball that would probably be different, however your still using your brains electrical signals to your hands so... yeah. A little Science lessen for you guys. 07

Seeing as this is a forum, a place to discusses and put in our "two cents", your rage is unjustified and you need to relax, or, if you excuse my pun, calm yo ****!
