Female Gamers - Tired of being treated badly?
Are you a female gamer who gets pestered, bothered, harassed, threatened, insulted or all of the above?
There are lots of great guy gamers out there to play with but we all know there are some real jerks out there as well.
Reply/bump/like if you're a female gamer or a guy gamer who is cool with female gamers.
Female gamers are here, and here to stay. :) <3

1 ReplyIn my experience girl gamers get treated better. All the ones I've played with have a shit ton of drooling desperate men following them around. Not that my experiences could represent the entire populace, just throwing my two cents in. However, i do like gaming with girls. Most of the time (not always), i find that guys rage quit waaaaaaaay more than girls. And guys are usually a lot more, shall i say, dicks? I've kicked more guys from my Raid teams for taking down to a lower level or younger kid more times than i can count. Never once had to do that to a girl.

13 RepliesEdited by voodoochild214: 10/21/2015 7:16:28 PMMy wife is a gamer. You will respect her and act civil or you will gtfo. That being said a sense of humor is required for any fire team. There are always people that like to tip toe on that line though and she has no problem letting them know when they are nearing the danger zone. But she doesn't invent issues. I find that some people (not just women) go into things looking for reasons to be pissed off and have a hair trigger. Be it because they didn't want to be there in the first place, feel inadequate and/or feel uncomfortable to start with. I try to make her and the rest of my team feel as comfortable as I can. And a little humor (silly but not annoying) can go a long way. The most important thing is; no matter who or what you are, don't take others or this game too damn serious. Have fun!

I've never even played with a girl. I'm on lfg all the time but not once ran into a girl player.
-
Here's your bit of attention
-
Damn are female portion of the community is almost non existent. The last thing it needs is groups of guys that don't know how to make a girl feel accepted. Personally like a girl on to break up deep voices.

Edited by Plaksa: 10/21/2015 7:52:22 PMI don't mind playing with females. Haven't played with many but I don't mind at all.

LMFAO that vote was on point! 77%

Can a child gamer be here our discrimination is toxic so um .… should I leave?
-
Everyone is faceless in game. If you send messages to female gamers, you're just reinforcing negative stereotypes.
-
Never thought that female gamers still got harassed, but I wouldn't know because for me, seeing a female on destiny or any other game that I play is the equivalent to also seeing a unicorn.
-
The guys in my team are all cool, i got my wife into destiny and she raids with us all the time.
-
To be honest I do not give a damn about the people I play with, be they male, female or whatever. If you play a trigger, are fun to talk to and either know what you are doing or capable of learning then I am fine.

9 RepliesI was just having a similar conversation on another post. I just don't understand male fascination with female players. If you come across another male gamer you don't ask him "what are you wearing?" "Are you single?" "How big are your boobs?"..... Well you wouldn't ask a guy his boob size but whatever. So why must I have to hear all these juvenile and childish comments? I just want to play. That's it. Is that really too much to ask for?
-
If you dont piss me off I don't care what sex or even what species you are. Everyone gets treated the same by me.
-
1 ReplyAs long as you don't take 6 months off on mat leave and leave my raid team hanging then were cool otherwise we'll have to sub you out ;)
-
I dont honestly know what people expect from the internet.
-
If you're on Xbox one hit me up GT JJ Lazer I stick with one group in destiny and its almost all chilled out mature guys. We got one married couple that jam with us sometimes and most the others are married. No sandwich jokes, promise
-
I think the only reason for why they get treated differently is because people believe there's less girls that play games than there are guys so they don't know what to expect, I'm a guy and I treat all gamers both male and female the same, but I can say from personal experience that guys do treat girl gamers like they're inferior when they really aren't
-
5 Repliesall people woman, man, child, or another race should be treated fairly and i am a guy but i very strongly support this.
-
Good lord the guys here lmao roflcopter.

I find this thread sexist because males get harassed too!
-
9 RepliesI'm only 12 and I have not met a single female destiny player I'm tired of getting harassed because of my age so I know how you gals feel but I'd love to meet a girl on destiny though also if your one of the gamers harassing then give them a break they were born that way they would rather not change that so plz stop anyway I'm happy if I ever meet a girl in destiny ps. I'm male
