I guess I could see your point, but I think you're failing to take into consideration the fact that women are indeed a marginalized group. Just the fact that you claim that women are more "sensitive" about their gender points to the fact that in this culture a lot of males are raised to think blanket statements like that are accurate in any kind of way, i.e. "women are more sensitive, emotional, bad at math" etc. If you were part of a marginalized group, you too would be sensitive about the thing that marginalized you, which in the case of the topic at hand is gender.

Agreed BiffBadHands. How do we deal with it? Make the sensitive less sensitive/more thick skinned. We don't marginalize more people because some people with same gender did bad things.

Actually it will take less paternalism towards women in general, and continued public support from allies to maintain progress. People need to be outspoken role models and avoid cheap humor that denigrates people.

It might be simplistic, but I think everybody should just be cool. And I've played with a lot of people all over the world that just wanted to be cool and play a game. So it's out there. But some people just refuse to be cool. If I knew how to deal with that, I'd probably be rich and not on Destiny forums. We're guardians. We can crucible and shake hands afterwards, but we can't be against each other. We have to be against the Darkness. Man, I wish an alien invasion would really happen. That's when we'd shine. Us against them, not us against us. That brownie probably kicked in. :salute:

Exactly, if only people would be cool with gender and don't give a damm about it. After all, there are no in game advantages of either race or gender!
