Your idea that the event is sexist is pretty laughable. Most women prefer the company of women socially. Just like most men prefer the company of men socially. That doesn't make them sexist, it makes them human.

Apparently the fact that men and women function differently in society is news to you.

@azspeedmerchant Apparently you didn't listen what I said, I didn't even say that it was sexist. I'm talking to the women, not the men. I'm saying there are women who whine and complain about discrimination in something that has been dominated by men for as long as it has existed, and is widely known to be a pretty mean/angry community. There's nothing wrong with playing with girl friends ... but there is something wrong with demanding attention/special treatment because of your gender.

Sexism question, why did I have to attend sensitivity training because a female co worker heared me and some guys talking like guys? I didn't see her and said vagina lol you don't want to be equal, you want prefered treatment. It's simple. And oh boy a ladies night at this place and that, well there are no man days. Just like there are no guys complaining to boss when Jenifer says swat lol get a grip

@slayerbilly lol did you hear what I had to say? I'm kinda agreeing with you, I'm against ladies night lol I don't want the preferred treatment at all.

You can just mute them, I actually changed my preferences so I can't hear anyone that's not my friend. I'm older and I don't need little kids screaming offensive jargon. I wish I ran into more girls online, they're way more mature and enjoyable to play with. :)

Were humans it's in our nature to be competitive (survival) it's in our nature to be attracted to the opposite sex even if its over internet (some more so tham others). What i'm saying is we will NEVER be without trash talk or guys getting the hots ffor girls on xbox or vise-versa (believe me girls can be just as bad as guys).

I'm a female gamer, and I play one of the worst games for trash talking. Gears is the entire reason I bought my xbox, and I love it. Fact is, if you can't keep up with the guys, and their shit talking, it's probably because your not very good. Play with the guys, hold your own, and get respect. Fact is, most females I've met on XBL, are either looking for a date, or think they're a bad ass, and quit when another girl does better. I like the fact that I play with all guys.

I resent the ds comment but you are forgiven, good insight.

Seperate rules for each gender isn't it, no ladies=sexist

No men=All good

But I learnt to mute people...damn kiddies ruining it, would that be bad to ban those under 18 from having mics because...I think that would be better for all of us.

Trash talking is a part of gaming, competitive gaming sounds stupid and nerdy i know, but is VERY competitive, possibly more than actual sports, girls just make easy targets because guys are somewhat offended that they play with them... Kinda like a girl joining an all guys football team... I think

[XXJFRE323X]

WELL, I HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH GIRLS PLAYING GAMES BUT, SOME GIRLS JUST TALK SHIT AND THEY FUCK IT UP FOR THE REST OF THE GIRLS...

@slayerbilly heres a question why would you say vagina at work? not only would that be a question but an answer to your question bc you shouldnt be talking about vag you should be working. Although on the other hand i feel like at alot of places girls do feel they deserve special treatment and yes they do get it. A guy says something or does something at work and they get into trouble but if a girl does something its ok yet it is a form of descrimination. We need to adress this issue as men

[xMissEBKx]

its not that girls cant handle the trash talk. I mean sure, some guys on xbl are immature and annoying with all their little comments. But maybe some girls like the oppurtunity to play with other female gamers since theres not that many? I know i do.
