hey, i never said ‘handicap’. you must admit that there are just some things that girls are generally better at, and vice versa. I mean…you might as well let guys carry stuff, for example, b/c they have more muscle-mbum than you. Then again, everything has exceptions. Log in to see images!
i’m not trying to pick a fight here atall…i shall amend my statement to ‘I have more trouble with spatial-awareness than all of the men i know’. |

I’m horrible at FPS, but I blame that more on a lifetime of wrist injuries than gender.
And where’s the other side of the coin here? I’ve seen lots of “girls don’t take gaming seriously”, but I personally know plenty of guys who don’t take it seriously either. Actually, I think I know more casual guy gamers than hardcore ones.
And come to think of it, what is the definition of “serious gaming”? Just considering FPS “gaming” is a pretty narrow definition considering all the genres out there.
At any rate, I think we need to rebumign the issues of gaming from “male vs. female” to “reasonable vs. stupid”. |

Meh. It’s more the fact that anyone who decides they’re going to angle for free stuff/attention via MySpace angle shots is probably not spending much time working on their gaming skills.
Chances are a lot of the good players you go up against are actually female, they just decide not to announce it. Either because it’s irrelevant (and let’s face it, it is), or to avoid harrbumment/stereotyping. Because there are a few who ruin it for everyone else. Log in to see images! |

When I play a game and find out they’re is a woman, I don’t sit there and INSTANTLY stereotype. but when they come on having like camwhore pictures and go on mic giggling and saying “Don’t hurt me, I’m a girl” Thats what reaaaally ****es the **** out of me.
I take time to bumes is all.

In general, no. There are good ones, yes. But sadly, there are too few who care. |

Xylon Posted: Unnecessary information. I’ve found people always qualify statements like that. “She’s a professional X, and a loving mother of 2”. Yeah, it’s nitpicking but it’s hella annoying. |

This is debatable. Log in to see images!
Anyways – girls are no better or worse at video games then men. The only difference is that there are more male gamers than female, so you’re obviously going to find more good male players than female.
