  • Part of the problem is that if you want equality than you have to deal with these kinds of things like the rest of us. There can't be a huge uproar or all this support coming out just because it happens to women. I'm a male and I'm on youtube. I make videos that people don't always agree with. I've had people tell me that my house should burn down while my mother is being -blam!- inside, I've had death threats, and the whole nine yards. You just have to let it go. It's the internet and people get balls of steel hiding behind a keyboard and monitor. Just block/ignore them and move on. When you make videos like this or respond than you are giving the trolls exactly what they want and just putting more fuel on their fire. They know that they got to you, they know that it bothered you, and that makes them feel good and further encourages their behavior. Not saying you can't have your all female clan, but you have to also realize when you do that you are opening yourself up to more of the trolling because you really aren't promoting the "equality" that you are seeking. Yes it sucks that people target your group, but again, you have to just let it go and hold your head high and be the bigger person. I honestly sometimes wonder if these groups clamoring for all this equality even know what that word means. You don't make yourself equal by trying to create special groups and call for action to be taken against behavior that only affects you. Again as someone who has had to deal with plenty of internet trolls, I'm sympathetic to what you had to deal with, but in the long run it is going to be much more helpful if you just ignore these types of people and try to work for equality for ALL gamers, not just females.
