Subject: Whats everyone so hyped up about?

Why are all these girls suddenly complaining about being the victims of sexism? Do they not realize that people on XBL are hostile to everyone? Being a girl just gives them new amo to throw at you. You're allowed to talk back. The guys that say that stuff to you are probably just not used to talking to girls. If you don't like it just hang with people who do like you on live. Or better yet ignore them all together. And I'm not afraid of losing to a girl but I've never met one good enough to beat me. If you think you can my GT is Th3xF4LL3Nx. Also I'm I the only one who has never met a girl on gears?

P.S. I think girls should have the option of showing cleavage on XBL. That would shut the guys up.

Carrots.

Umm... girls actually get less discrimination on XBL.
And why would they show cleavage on XBL? Isn't that like... kinda extreme? I don't think most girls would like to expose themselves to sweaty nerds online...

Also, why arey ou afraid to lose to a girl? That's sexist. They can play just as well as any man can.

My last thread: Why Reach Sucks

<3 Foman

I think many girls wouldn't mind flashing guys online if they had webcams and were chatting. I bet i could get a whole buncha bitties over live if we had video lobbies.

How ironic... Everyone is just further proving his original point.

Yeah, this is kinda dumb. Girls can play halo just as well as any guy if they put in the time. If guys make fun of girl players its because they're afraid of gettin killed by a female.

I have a girl in my MLG clan that is every bit as fun to play with as my guys are. I dont treat her any differently nor does anyone else. It sounds to me like you need to get laid kid.

Who cares about the gender of the player? They are just playing Halo 2 on XBL, whats the fuss?

  • 07.19.2007 8:02 AM PDT

Exactly, except I don't know what these immature men/boys are looking at, but it gotta get unplugged. Halo is competative, and you'll get more immaturity due to the competition.

the reason that they are starting to do that is because one of them made a thread about it and all of the girls just started mass-complaining.

It sounds to me like you need to get laid kid.

*Laughs*

Maybe so.

However, people who use that, common, attack are always lacking in that area of life themself. You have made yourself seem, and sound, like an arrogant, daft fourteen year old teenager. In fact, I'll turn your own advice around back at you as it seems, at a ridiculously high level, that you could use it.

Anywise, my thoughts to this topic: Blah, blah, blah! We've heard this all before, haven't we all? Sexism seems to be a hot subject around here. I'll reiterate again: Any type of skill in life can be learned, regardless of gender.

Note to the author: You're asking what is everyone hyped about, right? Well, the answer is nothing. This subject was settled a couple of days ago. Now you, are bringing the topic back up. You're the one who is "hyped" about this, after all, you have started a completely unnecessary thread about it.

Note: Discussing any type of discrimination should be done elsewhere, not here at a Halo 2 forum. If the Ninjas govern the forum properly, they should lock this; not that I wish to imply that they don't do a good job, because they do.

If it was settled a few days ago then how come like two seconds after I first made this thread someone else made one about the exact same thing? And I don't need to get laid beacause I already laid your mom last night.

How clever.

Why did you just defend yourself, quite well in fact, then, say that? You lost all my respect at that point. Kid, you have alot to learn.

You try so hard to be wanted. False emotions tells u fronted. I think being a person relies on one thing. Be yourself let u come through
Your to afraid to really be

I think that guy has got a good point. If a female cant take all the -blam!- talk she shouldnt be playing.

Your pink avatar, Fatty alias and absurd remarks are bothering me, kid.

Note: I believe this thread's longevity has come to an end. It's only generating nonsense. Appropriate action should be taken.

They usually are treated better than the average but not as good as they're used to being treated in real life would be my personal opinion. I don't see why they want to make a big case out of it though, everyone gets harassed at one point or another for something. I'm -blam!-, I play, I get harassed a lot but I don't go making 50 posts on the forums about it. I deal with it and I continue to play. I offer the same advice to these girls: Turn off your headset, play with people you get along with, overly complaining about it on the forums is just more likely to make you a target than anything else. And most of all: Get used to it. It's a competitive game. Everyone yells at everyone for one reason or another, it's going to happen.

RIP Halo 2.

The only thing that bothers me is the female players who make it extremely obvious between their symbol, color, and GamerTag that they're a girl and then complain about all of the attention they get. You can't be a pink Spartan with the lips symbol and a name with something like "princess" in it and then complain because people are giving you a hard time. It just seems a bit hypocritical.

Sexism is one of those things that's just bound to happen. In a primarily male online community (like oh, say, Halo 2 on Live) filled with often high school/college boys, it's pretty much a given that things will be said. Unfortunately there's a lot of guys out there that are complete scum when it comes to dealing with women. It's just part of the community and there's really nothing that you can do about it. My suggestions are to make it not so obvious that you're a girl in your GamerTag and to just mute anyone who gives you a hard time.

Not all guys are total pigs online though. I don't care about the gender of the person I'm playing with. This is Halo 2 and I'm not looking for anything other than a good game - discriminating in any form just seems foolish.

I completely agree with you and the guy above you to some extent.
