You know, women aren't the only people that get offended by all the toxicity in online games, right? I guess it matters more because they're the supposed minority. Sounds like women want equality only when it's convenient for them. |

I suppose there are a few that would prefer to have their sex demeaned and unvalued but I think most would like to be respected for what they are.
Hope you don't think I'm trying to be an ass for stating that, but I see this kind of logic all the time. The fact of the matter is we all treat each other like **** in online games. We all just try to tolerate it to some degree until we're desensitized to it. But once a female gets added to the equation, we suddenly have to be on our best behavior? I'd rather we clean up our act as a whole instead of adjusting when we thing someone with ovaries are on. |

Sounds like women want equality only when it's convenient for them. Sounds like you're just repeating what other people say. Good job monkey, here's a piece of bacon. I think all decent internet-proficient human beings would agree that you can be just as vulgar as you wish on the internet and say whatever you want and it's cool. We aren't bother by things like "suck my **** *****" and other casual banter. The thing is that's not what people are talking about. What's being talked about is people talking about specific and personal sexual comments towards an individual. And I don't care if it's male or female...or even the same sexes. That's just creepy.
That's what I'm saying in a round about way. Why is this suddenly an issue now when a female is involved. Toxicity in a community isn't an old concept, but people just like to turn and look the other way since anonymity dictates it. It only becomes more apparent when gender is thrown into the pot. |

Maybe its where I live and how I grew up but thats normal. If someone cant take that then they arnt worth our friendship and we go on to rip on them more because we know it bothers them. Then we proceed to tell them to grow up because all words are in the end are words. I agree with that and women should not get special treatment because they are women. They get the same **** from me that I deal to everyone. With that being said, constant personal harassment, and **** that's genuinely creepy that in no way could be considered casual internet talk, is a different story. Nobody wants to hear that the second people find out their voice regardless of gender or any other ****. Bottom line is, Don't cross the line and the line is so low you have to intentionally try to cross it.
I couldn't say it any better- well, I'd probably clean it up, but who gives a ****? |

It shouldn't matter what gender, race, creed, orientation or whatever someone is. Nobody should have to change the way they act just to appease another, especially online. I get offended by some of the garbage people spew out, but you know what? I don't make a scene about it. Want to know why? Because it's either going to goad the offenders on or it's going to **** someone off. If it's not something that can violate the ToS, learn to HTFU because we all treat each other like **** on here, some just do it nicer. |

We're not talking about trying to appease ppl and if you really can't control yourself around women then by all means don't bother. No one is making a scene either. They'll just stop playing and leave. If that's the way you want it then ok. Contrary to what a lot of people here seem to think, real grown up adults do not make racist, sexist, homophobic, etc. comments as a general rule. I think the majority of guys who play this game would agree.
If that's the case, let's put a little GÖÇ on every female players profile to single them out and let the rest of us know that we need to walk on eggshells around them. I'd rather treat everyone equally and focus on if a player is a good teammate, not what's in their pants. |

The whole point is to say that by making sexist comments with women in squad you are not treating them equally at all.
I mentioned earlier that if it violates the ToS. Sexist comments fit in that category. I underlined that portion in case if you missed it. |

How about growing up? Or if you really are an adult, how about little reality check, getting out of the basement and meeting people in real life?
Sorry, tried to quote but phone`s acting up. **** happens Bottom line i really dont give a **** if your a 4legged alien from saturn if your **** your **** just play the game anyways and if im too abusive or whatever then dont group up Always turning it into a womens issue Its not, its an issue thats it just because your a women doesnt mean you get extra benfits because of it
Who's more offensive? The person that doesn't pull their punches when they speak, or the person that white knights to perpetuate double standards? |
