Dames of Destiny is the worst Idea yet... There is no all male clans that I know of and this happens... They cause too many problems imo Don't get me wrong I love females who play games and they are "good" at them but this is pathetic

  • Really? You don't think there is ONE clan consisting of only males?

  • There might be only males, but unless the official ban women from joining, it isn't sexist. It just means women haven't joined.

  • Out of 7,000,000,000 people? Not many man.... Sexism is very old like Racism.. I understand racism I've lived with it man in school outside and on the internet but I don't care also we live in a Diverse and Equal society so people shouldn't care really

  • sexism is when you exclude or direct hate or assumptions towards a sex because of their sex in a hateful or diresoectful way. Dames do not hate we do not exclude out of hate.

  • You're misusing the term. Sexism doesn't apply to forming groups based on common interests. Did you ever read the Dames's bio? They created the group for girls who just want to play with other girls due to the sexism that goes on with gaming currently. It doesn't mean they don't join in on other mixed groups it just means that there is an all girls clan they can hop into. There's all girl teams for nearly every sport out there, are they sexist? No. The Dames aren't either.

  • Why don't they allow men into the group?

  • Because that's not what the group was made for. Same reason they don't let men into women's baseball.

  • You don't think the same rules apply? How are the two, in this debate, different? Are they not both groups that decided to have exclusive genders to play in a team in a game? Honestly I've had enough of posting intense forums. I've got Destiny to play

  • And sexism honestly goes both ways. So the Dames should either A) allow in male players who are polite or B) have no objection to a Guys of Destiny clan that denies access to Woman. Or lets take this a step further how about Whites of Destiny or even Muslims of Destiny. If one group with exclusionary rules is alright then ALL groups with such limits must be allowed.

    You're again missing the reason. It isn't about race or gender it's a clan with a group that shares common interests and was made for a single purpose. I mean come on guys are you really itching to join the Dames that badly? Also they never once had anything against male clans so I have no idea where you heard that from. It seems like you are making this into an issue it was never about in the first place and that's ridiculous. There's no one or nothing out there that says you can't make a clan be anything you want it to be.

    And that common "interest" is being a woman. Would I join Dames if they asked or offered and found my skills acceptable? Yes, yes I would. Same as if a Dame wanted to join my clan, if they are polite and decently skilled then no problem. I just have a problem when the reason to be excluded from a group is whats between my legs. Didnt say they did have anything against male clans. Just saying that IF someone decided to make a "no woman allowed" clan then they should be ok with that as it is the same as them saying "no males".

  • If you and the Dames are fine with clans that have a "no women" restriction then thats fine. Just way to many time Ive dealt with female groups would had issues with male grouos who had the same rules as them.

  • Then you need to reevaluate what your priorities are because if you're this upset over something someone else that you don't even know did, for what they believe is a good thing mind you, then you have some issues dude. You shouldn't care if you're a Dame, they're proud of what they are because they feel they're helping other girls that want that kind of environment. They aren't having exclusivity on their minds because they hate guys.

  • But they arnt really helping the issue. Yes they are making women and girls feel better about themselves. But why must there be a safe zone for this? Wouldnt the better way to fight sexism be to have a handful of guys in Dames to show the younger girls guys arnt all bad? To help them identify the bad attributes in a guy? Instead what they are doing is the same things we did as kids, say the other side is icky and gross and you should only hang around those like you.

  • Why don't you create that group? Has one been created like that yet? No. Why not? Because no one had the guts to. These women took a stand for the other girls playing the game to come to an [b]optional[/b] place they can be themselves in. It doesn't mean that's all they do it's just something they're a part of. Why didn't they join a group of guys? They didn't feel like it. That doesn't mean they think poorly of all guys, and honestly where are you getting the idea that they do? You're literally making that up with no backing in order to argue something that doesn't need to be argued. There are Women's leagues in EVERY sport Basketball Baseball Hockey Volleyball Etc. There are even academic clubs Engineering Medical Sciences Business Why do you feel entitled to be a part of something that was never meant for you?

  • Well here is the same question in reverse. Why do women feel entitled to be included in somthing not originally intended for them? If you find that question offensive but dont find your own then you are a hypocrite..
