I find it very fun and exciting when playing with female players. I know, what guy doesn't right? The thing is that, in my personal experience, when playing with my buddies, or my boys, we create a certain atmosphere. When a female player comes in the picture, most of us don't know how to react to the situation. I personally really don't like cursing, or using bad language with any girl. It makes me feel like I have no class when I do, but yet I find it hilarious when guys try to stand out in the party by cussing, and being extra dramatic when a girl is in the game.
Most of us men might know how to speak with women outside of gaming, but when it comes to chatting with them online, or in a party chat inside the gaming world, we seem to not be able to handle it. I still haven't found the solution to this problem, but maybe posting something on the subject may get us a step closer to finding this solution.
[b]The problem[/b]
Female players complain on how male players harass, annoy, and bug the hell out of them as soon as they find out that they're a girl. Sending mass 'friend requests', 'messages', and 'party invites' do not make female players intrigued to play with us. Overall most men would love to play games with female players every other night if they could. But honestly, most male players simply do not know how to respond to the female players who we find playing our favorite game.
[b]Why are guys so thirsty online?[/b]
I do have female gamers which who i play with occasionally, yet I wish I had more female players to play with. When playing with girl gamers, conversations take different turns, and different topics come up, oppose to when playing with your buddies. This is one of the reasons why male players are so excited to have a female player in their friends list. Perhaps some guys play more games than socialize outside of their rooms. Whether this is true or not, what guy doesn't dream of a hot, sexy girl who enjoys the same things as we do? So what better place to find this sexy woman over a match online?
[b]The truth[/b]
The truth is simple. The world isn't a fairytale, so if you are hoping to find this perfect partner over a match most likely wont happen. Yet I don't see a reason to not send a friend request to a female player, nor I find a reason for any girl to get upset. Why is it still a surprise when female players get requested by guys? We don't know, but hopefully times will change to where gamers overall become more friendly, and the number of females in the gaming world are equal to those for males.
[b]Any suggestions?[/b]
The only clue to the solution for this problem is more female players. Guys still dominate the numbers game in the world of gaming, so perhaps by equaling the number of female players, this might quench the thirst for most of these guys. Thank you for taking the time and reading this, this is my very first post.

Take care ladies, and gentlemen. have a great weekend.

Can I get a spark notes version of this?
-
Normally just don't treat them different at all and if I know a girl is going to join our group I tell my obnoxious friends that if they be pervs or jerks they will be kicked
-
I troll girls as much as I troll guys. I yell and scream nonsensical gibberish, micspam, be annoying in game. Their gender isn't gonna stop me
-
I normally don't treat them any differently
-
I like this topic. Its interesting to see what everyone thinks.
-
Did you know fighter pilots have a woman's voice with their computer system because it was found men responded more to a female voice, maybe it's same with video games? [spoiler]where dem girls at[/spoiler]
-
Play on bo2 and you could pick up a girl in one game of s&d
-
I like playing with girls but some just suck at video games i cant find one that can match my lvl and we can be playing together but sadly havent find 1 yet
-
We should play sometime!! Are you on ps4 or Xbox 1?
-
I for one don't use my mic anymore, just for the reasons above. I don't want to be treated like a baby and led through the VoG ect. I'm trying to get the mission done as much as they are, just because I'm a girl doesn't mean I can't do it. Or other times it just gets awkward, so I find it easier to just mute myself. Saves a lot of pain and effort.
-
I am indifferent. Men, women... they both want to enjoy themselves and play games, why make it a problem?
-
I wish there were more female gamers than males a couple of days ago I met the first ever female gamer in my gaming career lol and she had her mic on too we done the nightfalls and weekly herioc 3 times each good fun was a good change for once

-
the girl gamers I play with curse more than I do. Real gamer girls are bat shit crazy. Don't treat them any differently than any other person.
-
When i happen to play with a girl, I stay the excact same as when im with my friends. I might be a little more nice, unless I play with her regularly.
-
I gotta be honest. It's 6am, I haven't slept and I'm not reading a wall of text about playing with female gamers. Because even if I could keep both eyes open at the same time, it would still be irrelevant. A persons sex is not important while playing games online, of all places. I don't treat any of the people on my friends list any different because of something so silly. Blah blah blah
-
The guys I game with are great!! They act like their normal selves. Yeah some make a few comments that make me feel a bit awkward but shit happens!! I'll say something as equally awkward to them just for shits and giggles. Also women can be just as insanely thirsty, to the point it's frightening. I enjoy gaming with guys inappropriate or not, it makes for a great time and heaps of laughter! Not all women are soul eating harpies when it comes to the gaming world.

I was told that my soft, quiet, and extremely calm voice was comforting by a girl - It felt nice :T

-
I barely talk in games unless I'm spoken to or have a witty comment. I become known as the silent guy and then no one cares if I'm quiet. I honestly find comfort in silence whether gaming with guys or girls.
-
Two things: 1. MMORPG=mostly men online role playing girls. 2. Some of the female gamers I've met swear like sailors.
-
Whenever I'm with girl gamers I tend to get a bit shy and I don't want to embarrass the girl or myself. I hate being labeled as thirsty so I go the complete opposite direction. Do girls appreciate this?
-
Solution in two steps 1. Just be you 2. Play like you always do [b]Bonus points if:[/b] You T-bag everyone and still crush [i]everyone[/i]

I leave

My opinion on playing with female players:...... Translation: K. I mean, seriously. Why make a big fuss about it? I had played with a girl once before. I didn't think anything of it.
-
Ive never noticed anything different if i happen to go on mic or they connect the dots with my name then they usually are just like theres a girl or at some point refer to me as the girl but im not treated different? I cuss a lot too so i usually mute my mic so i don't annoy the other players :p
