Do you think making a female only clan is the best way to overcome the vulgar, sexist comments and actions by (x) percentage of male gamers?
I ask to comment because I do not have an answer but looking for a solution for both the short and long term.
I completely understand the desire to just log in a play a game without unwanted attention/harassment/sexism, but question if segregation is at best solution.
I personally think at best it's a mere bandaid on a gunshot wound and at at the very worst arguments the problem.
Please keep immature, inappropriate, and vulgar comments to yourself.

I was playing eso yesterday and one gal was calling another an attention whore and what not and the one being called an attention whore was in stealth behind something in town listening in on what the other was saying. The one, now pissed off for being call an attention whore, started calling the first a slut and told her to go kill herself. Two females doing this to eachother, no male stepped in. Later a guy friend came and was acting tough and the like. Situations like this are why male gamers get the idea that chicks are drama queen in games. I feel that the reality is even though females are harassed by males in games, they harass eachother more and are more vicious to each other, just like I feel men do the same. Most times that there has been a female in game when I'm playing an online game no one makes cat calls or any of that. I'm not saying it doesn't happen, however I do feel it is over exaggerated. As for a female only clan, I'm indifferent. They could let males in and just not play with them if they choose, have it be up to each individual, and they could easily moderate it. Kick the trolls at the first sign. But then again it's not my clan and therefore not my say.
