I never said anything about privilege. Gaming is not male dominated a 4% difference is not domination (as of 2014 its 52m 48f) OK so stop acting like you are being forced into a community of sexist. Also I never said ignore any sexism yes there will always be sexism and racism as long as people are able to have their own opinions but genders are equal in 2015 also you said that males are not generalized yet you yourself are generalizing males and not allowing entry which as I said is discrimination. Be the change accept others and show them that you are just another gamer force them to realize that we aren't male gamers and female gamers but instead we are all just gamers.

  • So your suggestion is to put myself in situations where I will be harassed to prove that im as good as male players? The day I can join every and any clan and any fireteam on any game and not be harassed is the day women wont need seperate places to be safe. But untill then a female only space is the only saftey we have.

  • once again there is never going to be no sexist lobbies same as no racist lobbies, but you idea of every male harassing you is just ludicrous because there is no way you could say even 50% of males are sexist also that is going against the fact that you said males aren't marginalized yet that is EXACTLY what you are doing right now and staying away will solve nothing also you don't want to talk with random people mute them or go into a party chat with the nice people and if some is mean kick or MUTE them honest you make everything an extreme and only worsen your situation by discriminating against other (you still have yet to say why this isn't discriminating)

  • Get your male privilege stick out of your ass. Us girls want a safe place from harassment, both sexual harassment & your type of harassment. Why does this bother you so much? Are you as bothered by the Dads of Destiny clan? Do you comment on their forum posts telling them to stop discriminating against non-Dads? No? Didn't think so. We shouldn't HAVE to mute or block people because of harassment. That's the problem. Not us trying to protect ourselves from it in the first place.

  • actually yes i had a lengthy argument with a DoD member about why their clan is also discriminatory also how many time have you been harassed by a male in destiny because before jan. or dec. you couldn't hear people unless you invited them. and if this is harassment then i too have been harassed in game many of times but i don't discriminate and perpetuate the problem, i muted them and moved on until i found many friends of both genders i am not male privileged, you are just discriminatory

  • A. if you've got a problem with Dads of "Destiny being "discriminatory", you're a troll. B. Not that it's any of your business, but I have been harassed by male gamers NUMEROUS times since launch. There are other ways to harass people that don't involve voice chat. I have had people message me over PSN & have had to block them since they did not stop when asked. C. I don't care if you don't harass people, if you're not standing up against those who are doing the harassing & trying to stop the source of the problem, then you are part of the problem. D. Are you male? Then you've got male privilege. No amount of you denying it exists will make it go away. Sorry buddy.

  • A) not a troll someone you dislike the idea of discrimination within the gaming community B) so simply not looking or blocking a psn will stop messaging and do you still have any of these messages? C) is stand up against harassers when did i say i didn't but clans that then discriminate only perpetuate the problem by keeping the image of a girl gamer as rare as a unicorn but in reality they account for 48% of gamers 4) so i pose a question rather than giving you my gender and after u answer i will tell you. If i was a male what privileges do i have within a game like destiny also why does my gender matter when discussing the discrimination of players within a game any one cane point it out and see that it is wrong.

  • Any group of people that doesn't just let anyone join is discriminatory, yeah? So by your logic, all major sports leagues are discriminatory. So are millions of other groups. Maybe take up arms against them, too. This is just a place where those who identify as female can seek out other female identifying individuals. If there wasn't harassment, there would be no need for an all female group. But until the harassment stops, some of us want a safe place. Don't like it? Don't join. & when I talk about privilege, I'm talking about the big picture, not Destiny. The amount of females that have been threatened with -blam!- vastly outweighs the amount of males that are. That isn't to say that those males that are threatened don't matter, they do. But that is something feminism as a whole is against. I'm done with this conversation. There's obviously no changing your mind as to why we felt the need to create this group. Just as there is no way you're changing my mind. So let's just agree to disagree.

  • their is nothing in major league sports team that say someone can't join just they wont get contracts because they arn't good at said sport totally different. once again there will never be no harassment as long as people have opinions but you are exaggerating how many females are harassed i have played and befriended many female gamers all saying they have never been treated that way. i am saying within destiny there is no privilege so that has nothing to with create a group within this game. its clear you cant see the errors in you ways have a nice day

  • Take your discrimination complaint to Bungie. They had a community focus on Dames of destiny. Another female only group, which u probably already know. If Bungie doesn't consider it discrimination, neither should you. Or else feel free to stop playing their game and interacting with this community. You are acting like women did before we had equal rights. Welcome to 2015. Nuff said.
