But again Felicia I'm sure you understand [i]why[/i], in our current society, you are getting the replies you are. Of course it isn't acceptable, but because of the demographics of the forum (teenage gamers) there will always be people that think like that (I feel like we've had this chat before..). I'm not saying you deserve it or that the things said should be applied to you because you're female, I'm saying that these types of things were already integrated into this e-community and have been for a while. Can you change their mindset/perspective? Can you change how the overral community behaves toward female gamers? Sure. But you're gonna have to be pretty perseverant.
