When playing with female players

I find it very fun and exciting when playing with female players. I know, what guy doesn't right? The thing is that, in my personal experience, when playing with my buddies, or my boys, we create a certain atmosphere. When a female player comes in the picture, most of us don't know how to react to the situation. I personally really don't like cursing, or using bad language with any girl. It makes me feel like I have no class when I do, but yet I find it hilarious when guys try to stand out in the party by cussing, and being extra dramatic when a girl is in the game. Most of us men might know how to speak with women outside of gaming, but when it comes to chatting with them online, or in a party chat inside the gaming world, we seem to not be able to handle it. I still haven't found the solution to this problem, but maybe posting something on the subject may get us a step closer to finding this solution. [b]The problem[/b] Female players complain on how male players harass, annoy, and bug the hell out of them as soon as they find out that they're a girl. Sending mass 'friend requests', 'messages', and 'party invites' do not make female players intrigued to play with us. Overall most men would love to play games with female players every other night if they could. But honestly, most male players simply do not know how to respond to the female players who we find playing our favorite game. [b]Why are guys so thirsty online?[/b] I do have female gamers which who i play with occasionally, yet I wish I had more female players to play with. When playing with girl gamers, conversations take different turns, and different topics come up, oppose to when playing with your buddies. This is one of the reasons why male players are so excited to have a female player in their friends list. Perhaps some guys play more games than socialize outside of their rooms. Whether this is true or not, what guy doesn't dream of a hot, sexy girl who enjoys the same things as we do? So what better place to find this sexy woman over a match online? [b]The truth[/b] The truth is simple. The world isn't a fairytale, so if you are hoping to find this perfect partner over a match most likely wont happen. Yet I don't see a reason to not send a friend request to a female player, nor I find a reason for any girl to get upset. Why is it still a surprise when female players get requested by guys? We don't know, but hopefully times will change to where gamers overall become more friendly, and the number of females in the gaming world are equal to those for males. [b]Any suggestions?[/b] The only clue to the solution for this problem is more female players. Guys still dominate the numbers game in the world of gaming, so perhaps by equaling the number of female players, this might quench the thirst for most of these guys. Thank you for taking the time and reading this, this is my very first post. If you enjoyed it please leave a comment, and for any suggestions that could help find the solution to this problem, feel free to leave your comments here as well. Take care ladies, and gentlemen. have a great weekend.

      • I don't care about anyone's gender. I treat everyone equally. However, I have noticed some of my guy friends love to flirt with girls. It's pretty annoying. This guy I've been playing with is really cool but as soon as one of my girl friends joins us he starts making stupid remarks and trying to be funny. He becomes a completely different person. Ugh.. I normally keep my mic off unless I need to say something that relates to the game.

        • I don't discriminate between genders. If we play a game together, we play the game. I have - that I am aware off - between 3-6 female players in my friend list. Two that I have played the majority of the time are both awesome peeps. I have seen a lot of gamergirls in CoD and I never sent a friend request nor have I messaged them. If they want to add me, they can do it. I'll accept the request just as fine as anybody would. Girl or guy, you play the game, lets go and have fun in gaming - I don't care.

          • As a girl I mean I guess I pretty much agree with this, except the cussing part. (I have just as bad of a potty mouth as any other person), but honestly I don't really get harassed or annoyed in Destiny. Maybe I'm just lucky, but I honestly think there's a great environment for every kind of gamer in the Destiny world.

              • Btw, the fact that you even had to post this is sad. Sadly, genders will never see each other in a completly positive, and will never quite understand each other completely,

                  • As a female, I haven't partied up with any males who have made a big deal about my gender. We just did the raid/strike and left. Maybe I've just been lucky.

                  • I've gotten very, [i]very[/i], stupid interactions with dudes. Some people threatened to get me banned on Xbox live just for attention most recently. Got their friends to back them up, let loose on me. Yet CoC citations shut them all up. I don't trust members of that side of the equation enough to accept random party invites (Have another recent story on that). 1/3 of all the messages I got when I still played Destiny was about my female character in general and my tag. People followed me around, jumped into my lobbies if someone had it on public, sent me hate mail for ignoring sexual messages even. If any dude plays well, treats other players well, and all [i]before[/i] I talk, then I'll accept friend requests and invites. The point of that is that they want to play with someone good, not a noob you only have around for what's in their pants. They do that I'll gladly join, many have caught my eye in this way. If you're a good player you're a good player. /Rant ends/

                        • Tl;dr And as a heads up, just don't act any different, don't treat them any different, and go about playing as if just another person joined. Everyone here and on the rest of the Internet adds all this rules and codes of conduct to playing online with women, it's just plain silly.

                            I defiantly understand this issue here but another major problem is that many women, [spoiler]yes girls here are women, get it right ;3[/spoiler] Don't exactly trust guys at first, The best way to make friends with a shy one is too just be chilled out and with your friends who know her [spoiler]this is what most guys say, I do not believe in this though[/spoiler] Here is my opinion on that, Girl gamers are wonderful to have yes, But many will just ignore you anyways or move on, I as an xbox player have just removed around 65 people on my friends list, I have around 20 left and only about...1 or two i actually talk to, This is the problem, many don't have actual xbox friends who they interact with all of the time, So why should a girl come into play? It spices things up, that's why. [spoiler]sorry for confusing opinion and such, lol[/spoiler] As another detail a very few gamers including me do not desire just a gender, They desire actual interactions and do not care what gender, race, or culture you are :3 [spoiler]I'm starting to sound like Martin Luther King Jr... Lol[/spoiler] But all I yearn for is a friend, But who is also my age lol, Not the usual twelve year old :3. [spoiler]NEONjabAWaKI if you are interested lol, [i]i am that guy now[/i][/spoiler]

                            • Id say its only a big deal because of the dramatic difference of male to female ratio playing video games. And then there are those people who are just a completely different character when they are online and are just trolls or unnecessarily rude. Its my opinion. No hate comments please D:
