coz they always tried to get more power online
from BBSs to IRC
they still try the same in games, with some success
the classic joke is there are no women online. only men, men pretending to be women, and FBI agents pretending to be 13 yo girls
if there were a LOT of women, they would be competing between themselves
which they arent
they compete in social media, and thats pretty much it
even Youtube, that supposedly appeals to women, is mostly male
then you have twitch, you watch men if they are fun or good, you watch women for their looks
it really ruins the idea of equality, but they do it to themselves
so you think most women like being objectified?
most women would say "no" and lie
i was in a group. and only recently was a fairly sure the leader is actually female, although they refuse to post pics of themselves
I know where you were going from the start
they attracted two types of attention: thirst, and vindictiveness
that doesn't mean online it is full of females hiding as males
not all females like the former, none likes the latter
there is a difference between pretending to be male, and not telling someone you are female
there are lots of people i talked to online, who i have never ASK what sex they are
default is male
you dont have to ask, after some time you will know
unless they are very deviant
i assume they are male, but they have never given a reason to tell me they are or are not.
you seem to have a low opinion of women
not all women are Anita
or feminist
I didn't say or imply that
nor do they act as differently online as you think, depending on what the topic is
I said that if you pass a lot of time with someone online, you will eventually know
not always
it becomes pretty obvious
unless they are deviant
does it?
yep
in my personal experience, the people who are easy to peg as females, are usually people begging for attention
I played a lot of MMOs, it was really hard to guess incorrectly their gender after a while, even if VC wasn't used
did you use VC to correctly identify them?
yup
after a while, raiding with VC became the norm
also, i doubt gaming is a good example, particularly MMOs and Shooting games. those are still pretty damn male
