Bungie the harrassment of female players whats being done?
Fortnite gamer who livestreamed alleged assault has prior violence convictions
http://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-12-13/fortnite-gamer-luke-munday-court-livestream-assault/10613688 Colour me not surprised that this guys got priors ... and yet some people were defending him....insanity ....Pattern of behaviour and not just him nor exclusive to Fortnite ....I've been taking a break from Destiny 2 one of the reasons is as a female player I'm sick of dealing with such nasty mainly males online and having my avatar attacked because it's female ...anyone who says it's not happening is like the three monkeys hear no evil say no evil see no evil ...that's not my experience, been way too toxic for me lately ....I am not referring to our clan but there is rampant player abuse (griefing, cheating, and the likes) from other players and teams...and I simply choose not to participate at this time as I find it very uncomfortable, not fun nor funny, nor remotely enjoyable an atmosphere on Destiny 2 ...hoping that will change but won't hold my breath....I'd like to ask Bungie directly what is being done to end this sort of female harrassment ingame ?? I posted this in our clans page but I would like to hear from Bungie as I've seen nothing that addresses this current issue within their player base

I'm gonna preface with saying I'm a woman irl. Y'all probably don't realize you do it but there is a helluva lot of casual hostile gendered language thrown around not just here on these forums, but ingame and everywhere. People trying to insult others by calling them p*ssies and stuff. That's just one example, a lot of other words are worse, lol. The insinuation is that 'being a woman, or having feminine traits, is bad.' Which sucks. And you reading this probably don't even actually think those things. But when you use that language you're perpetuating that subtle underculture of hating women. And the crappy thing is that the dudes that actually do hate women will hear y'all say that stuff and think you're on his side, and because y'all just validated his behaviour he continues on with his bull. The language thing is one problem in a really, really big pile of problems...but it's that same kind of casual unthinking hatred that gets thrown around in so many contexts that just wears on women. We hear it every day, even from dudes that are our friends and family, and it sucks. I'm not saying any of this bc I think bungie, specifically, has a huge sexist problem on their hands, just that however misplaced, I know where OP is coming from and I can understand the frustration. I just don't go on voice anymore in any online game. Not because it's common to hear 'HEH UR A GIRL???' the first time you speak or some 2005 XBL nonsense like that. But because if someone gets tilted in my direction in a setting where I have somehow inadvertently revealed my irl gender, it almost always devolves into invitations to use your mouth for something other than speaking, or even worse, -blam!- threats or something. Thankfully, D2 isn't a game where you're forced to communicate with randos, lol. But honestly...those of you who game with female friends on a regular basis...ask 'em how comfortable they would be talking in voice in an online game and I am pretty confident they'll have a story or two to tell. And that in itself is pretty telling, imo.
