[quote]The stupidity is strong in this one. No, her creation of the clan simply called ATTENTION to what is a VERY REAL problem in gaming...and every OTHER part of life where women seek to move and be treated as equals in situations dominated by men. Especially immature and insecure men. I'm a 47 year-old male gamer who plays this game, and two of my three character in Destiny happen to be female. Although I've known my entire life that sexism is alive and well (and have heard things said about women behind closed doors that would make your hair stand on end in horror) my experience playing this game has been an eye-opener as well. As a man, I am EMBARRASSED by how other MALES (They aren't men) behave when they believe they are dealing with a woman. 1. Many of them simply have NO IDEA how----or lack the self-control to----interact with women in ways that are not sexualized. 2. Many have no respect for BOUNDARIES. They just force their sexualized attentions onto any female that catches their interest...and then rage and become abusive when that attention isn't returned or welcomed. In short. Whenever I'm playing as one of my female characters, I am ROUTINELY chased from either the Tower or somewhere int he game world at least once a week by some forme of sexualized harassment, or unwanted attention. To the point where I have to go to ORBIT to make it stop. As a guy---behind the female toon----I can easily just laugh it off. But I can easily see how this would be very scary and very infuriating to a woman. ...and sadly, one of the best ways women have of combating this kind of ANTI-SOCIAL BEHAVIOR on the part of males, is to seek safety (in numbers) in the presence of other women. So no, Belle didn't "create this situation'. What "created this situation" is the fact that here is something really WRONG and really BROKEN in the heads of some males. A situation that we men have the luxury of ignoring and laughing off. They don't have that luxury....because as the Bounty sadly showed....that when some of these guys don't get the response they want.....it can go to someplace sick and scary in a hurry.[/quote] Geezus ur self serving. When someone creates a 'clan' with limitations built with restrictions. You open a door. Dads and Dames both. I've been waiting for the all black and or all white clans. Of course she ,nor does any woman deserve it. And because you have a few woman avatars you feel their pain? Ba! Block and report sht heads. I play with 2 fantastic woman every week. A few stupid remarks here and there. But we are SMART enough to separate from them. I will give zero pitty for Dames and zero for all the others that have been getting their mothers banged by everyone since Black ops.
