Why do men treat women gamers bad? I legit want true honesty here (open up)

Hey there, I'm a gamer from Texas. I have a legit question I really want to know. After encountering so many rude remarks flirting, or even observing fellow female gamers yelled at/cat called...I really wanna know why a lot if you Lads don't like women? There would be times nothing would happen and yelling name calling and harassment would arise. Almost all of the times the lady gamer werent doing anything and the male would pick at her. Either being sexual or really aggressive. I noticed male gamers would get super mad when she would try to defend herself as if she had no right to defend herself. Then there are the few sweet guys that are super quiet guys. Only 1% percent out of 99 percent. Just tell me a simple sentence of what your attitude towards women is, in the gaming community. Is it Jealousy? Nervousness? No contact with women? Or you just don't like women gaming? Thanks.[spoiler]im watching he honest ok....[/spoiler]

  • If you're wanting a factual answer, it's impossible to get from this question. You keep commenting, " that's an opinion" or whatever and you're trying to invalidate that persons response. The fact of the matter is all gamers talk crap. The only reason we're seeing that girl gamers are talked crap too a lot at the moment is because of what happens to the dames. In all of my 15 years of gaming, I've only seen this happen once or twice. I get harassed by kids all the time on here but I don't care because, ITS A VIDEO GAME. Most people on here don't care about the other person playing so they talk crap. It's fun and what we do, it's just apart of gaming

      'Cause they are behind a computer screen. They can say whatever they want because they can't be punished for it. It works both ways. [spoiler]BTW only a small amount of men act like that, and women do those things too[/spoiler]

        If u suk, I'm going to say something regardless. I don't care what your voice sounds like over the mic. Not saying girls suck at videogames, but I have met some not-so-good ones.

        • It's because girl gamers are rare and easy to talk to rather than physically. Online guys think they are the shit because idk why. Guys bash on girls because they picture you as a slùt and don't know you in actuality. Or they fall in love with you because you are a girl that plays games.

            • They are inferior creatures and don't have as much skill as male gamers. I can't take any female gamer seriously, this is why I choose not to play with them. Side note, I'm also sexist so don't pay much attention to me.

              • So I treat "gamer girls" a little better than my buds because the "gamer girls" take some things a bit more...direct. So I'm nicer to them But I love to play with them.Always chilled

                  • Your assuming all men do that. To be completely honest, I've had some bad experiences with women in game, but that was twice, and it wasn't a huge deal. I think most people just have triggers, and i guess gender is some peoples triggers. Everyone has triggers. Some active (yelling, screaming, name calling, threading ect), and others passive (guilt, internal anger, sadness ect). I can get down if I see anyone who sounds like my ex, but it's passive. It's just the old saying "a few rotten apples spoils the bunch".

                    • It's not that guy gamers have beef with girl gamers, it's just the people who act stupid in front of everybody are the people that are recognized and are often thought to be representing the whole group rather than just being the radical individuals they are.

                        • Honestly society change And each man action make up the difference of how errogant they can be. I'm OK with them as a grown man. But really each guy different I've heard kids bad mouth just like a adult does. And tell a girl all the time if a man make you uncomfortable just mute them or report them after muting. I think the only way a man could ever understand why this generation ridiculous attitude. Make most women feel harmed is them finding most the the things they see hear based on environment to be normal. It can change a lot trust me

                          • Be realistic and very specific please. I am asking you calmly...How many times how you seen this happen. Me? You might ask? I have never seen it happen. I get the sneaking suspicion that people are making posts these days more personal and overactive just to get views or likes, maybe a comment.

                            • There are just some immature grown men who feel threatened by women coming into games that they feel is their domain.
