I was wondering how it differs being male and female online,as when I've been playing in games with girls there's always a bunch of guys trying to speak to the only girl in the lobby on account of her being a girl. So how do you get treated?Whats it like being a girl online gamer? do the lads treat you differently?As I have found: Most often, it depends on if you have a username that betrays your feminine gender. (Like sexymamma123 as an example to one extreme) :P Mine is nearly always AkizuRyuuri so yeah. Unless the game offers a female character, I am not noticed exceedingly much or anything. :\
Mostly when you look like your feminine gender or sound not tomboylike, AKA girly/womanly, in any fashion small or not, THEN you get the guys hanging around. Literally. xD I've tried it before in a nameless stupid MMORPG once, just to see if it was true that men are so easy to succumb to such a simple thing that is a show of one's feminism(or rather armor that shows a lot...yeah, that too), just for scieeennce. Yes, science... *secretive snicker*
Like BEES they were. *shiftyeyed*
Depends on the game too. I hear from my Warcraft friends that it does happen a lot there... Different social dynamics seem to play an important factor. And with guilds and groupmaking (AKA social chatting time happens a lot)being common and strategically necessary(Gotta know your buddies... teehee LEEEROOOY JENKKINNSS oAo) in that game it makes sense.
I played zOMG on GaiaOnline back before they fell to the thirst for $$(actually that was a lot further back, but still ^^;) and I wasn't noticed TOO much more. Maybe like 20-28% more... :3
xD Makes a girl feel good to be accepted by a hoard of (manly)men(wannabes) though, but I personally don't do it for that. o3o' I liek gameezz just like guys do. *shrugs*Whats it like being a girl online gamer? do the lads treat you differently?lol haha :) well i am not girl but i have been online gaming for years i played wow for bout around 5ish years now i believe then ALOT of other mmos an well i'd say girl gaming can be tough honestly cause it depends on the game, so lets go with wow an very large community but that bein said alot of hardcore assholes aswell hell im one myself cause its hard findin decent ppl in the damn game, an hell i use to be ina guild called NCA guess wat that stands for NO CHICKS ALLOWED lol some ppl treat girl gamers nice i do cause i treat everyone nice unless they piss me off but alot of ppl jus automatically think girls cant "game" an they suck an this an that an watever an cant play an blah blah blah which isnt true but alot think honestly i never been ina guild on wow that had a actual girl raider just maybe the here an there wife / GF of the guild leader would tag alongWhats it like being a girl online gamer? do the lads treat you differently?Its not much different, apart from alot of people try to talk to you.
Sometimes, a person will say that I shouldn't be playing video games, and should get back to the kitchen, or laugh, but that doesn't happen very often.Whats it like being a girl online gamer? do the lads treat you differently?
It depends. Some guys are super losers and can't stand losing to a girl. I have played countless hours with various girl gamers and count them amongst my online friends. A lot of guys do tend to get stupid when girls are in the game with them. But ignore them.
