Was recently having a heated discussion in game and got the normal comment of "You're not really female anyway". This I am used to but this person then went on to say when I protested that I was infact female that I must either be butt ugly or a dyke and to FO and play WoW.
Why is there this stereotype that if a female likes computer games they have to be some kind of freak. I am just a normal female that like's to play Neocron2. I raise my babies, cook for my family and keep my house very clean and tidy (am slightly obsessive in that area).
Now I don't claim to be Angelina Jolie (she could make any woman turn) but neither do I think of myself as butt ugly. I am not a dyke I am a married hetrosexual woman and imo WoW is crap.
I enjoy playing NC2 and don't see why that is so hard for some people to believe.
Now i feel better, Hurumph

You're gonna let that ONE stupid person's comments get to you that much? Wow, you really are a woman.
Here's to the Eternal Grudge!

I will admit to a few glasses of Chardonnay tonight but its not just that one person, alot of people I have come across in game don't believe it either. On the other hand I have some great friends in game who love me loads, sorry for rant just needed to get it off my chest

Oh no, no apologies required. I just assumed a typical NC type response. Minimal empathy, maximum criticism.
But yea, thats what happens when you're unfortunately a 'fantasy' to most kids online. Being or claiming to be female makes the testosterone levels go haywire in any teenager, thus making them react in totally irrational ways.
I on the other could not care less even if you were a transvestite lumber jack with a your very own 'friend' pit---'She puts the lotion on the skin or she gets the hose again'!!!
Anyway, to summarise.....fuck 'em.
Menstrual pains
Mental breakdowns
Mental illness
Menopause
Guynocological complications
Then, when women have REAL trouble, it's a Histerectomy.
What do all of women's problems start with?

Just ignore em, if your a female then be a female dont let people judge you otherwise , if they say no your not, say "Webcam plx" ?
your'll know if she is female or not in about 3 years time when she mentions this again and we have all forgotten...
:angel:
I dont care if you are a women or a man :cool: i will still make you tell me your favorite biscuit!!!
This thread will only further disolve into arguments, trolling and flaming so i have to close it, however if you are recieving abuse ingame please contact abuse@neocron.com with chatlogs/screenshots and if required, action will be taken.
