as a female myself, I must admit that I find this clan to be a very immature act.. rather disappointed, honestly. I thought feminism meant equality amongst all genders.

  • Finally a female here with common sense. There is hoped or humanity :)

  • I find it immature for people to make conclusive assumptions.

  • If you'll notice from our posts and other comments, we don't identify as a "feminist" clan. Some members call themselves feminists, some don't, so maybe read more carefully before commenting on a quality we don't claim? Speaking only for myself, I don't know about your particular brand of feminism, but mine not only advocates for equality for all genders, but also recognizes a few more realities: we don't currently live in a culture where equality exists so there is still much more work to be done, being pro-woman and creating a safe space for women to gather is not the same thing as being anti-male (very few things in life are either/or and being anti-male, in my opinion, would be counterproductive); and it's not my place to judge other women's choices. Part of feminism for me is recognizing that each woman gets to make her own fully informed choices. If it's not the choice I would make, so what? I think about something Amy Poehler said in her recent book: "Great for her, not for me." And then she moves on...

  • Thank you for also representing my choice to not be called a feminist. Always appreciated.

  • There are many other clans who admit players of all types and gender identities which would probably suit you better then. Please do not assume that we consider ourselves lesser or greater than a particular gender simply because we choose to focus on our shared perspective as female players in a male-dominated space. It's about relating to others in a positive way and showing support for women in a public forum. It does not mean that spend our time bashing men or that we seclude ourselves away from other players.
