I think that by definition, sexism and racism are acts of discrimination by privileged groups against non privileged groups. They are particular varieties of discrimination rooted in structural inequalities in society. That isn't the same as saying discrimination as whole cant go in any or all directions.
If we were truly "segregating" ourselves, our members wouldn't belong to any other groups, not would they play with male players; neither of those are true. I like that you seem to think we can just "empower equality" through sheer force of wanting it to exist. If that were the case, we wouldn't face any structural inequalities, as no member of a target group wishes to experience them. Instead, I know it's a "righteous" thing to provide a safe space for women in Destiny - many of our members have spoken about the harassment they have experienced from male players simply for being female and their appreciation for knowing that will not happen in our community.
If you want to help "empower equality" for women, please be an ally and focus your attention on the actions and behaviors that make a lot of spaces unsafe for female players. Calling us sexist and accusing us of doing something wrong by "self-segregating" certainly doesn't help move us forward as a gaming community.
