Why is it so hard for female guardians?

Why is it so hard for girls, like myself, to not deal with the toxicity of the community and to find other women in the community? I know we dont put ourselves out there like "Hey Im a female destiny 2 player looking for friends!" But when we find someone and we think its another female Destiny 2 player and it turns out to be a guy, we either recieve toxicity from them, get harassed/bullied, or we get kicked from their groups without being given a chance or get blamed for mistakes that werent us. (happened to me in my run of Kings Fall after Warpriest on opening weekend) Have any other women, other than me, faced this issue while playing? I would love to hear responses from both New Lights and Vets of the community

    I have also noticed a trend if there is a female in the fireteam , she is almost always the first to be blamed if something goes wrong, and I have witnessed that first hand because I used to raid with my wife , it has turned her against doing anything that requires talking to anyone but me or our other freind that we play with, and this is a player that used to run relic at Oryx(90% of our clan passed on D2 and never looked back) I experience the toxicity all the time,I have become numb to it, just ignorant noise, I get my stuff done and get out , but it just gets to her too much to enjoy playing
