Girls getting shit for being girls online probably happens all the time and it must be annoying to get messaged every time you log in by people you grouped with, but I wouldn't be surprised if they sometimes like the attention.

I was playing LoL last night with two of my friends and two wringers. Wringer1 starts shit talking me for not helping their lane and I call them out on not having personal responsibility. Shit gets heated and wringer1 then says, "kelly, these guys are assholes."

Most obvious bait I'd ever seen in my life, but I just ignored it rather than biting and saying "no wonder u suck, its cuz ur girl, girl don't play games, go make me a kitchen and get back in the sandwich! LOL"

Not to mention when I ran the video game club at my university. Some tumblrina came in, we welcomed her and she said, "Oh, I'm not here to play, I'm just here to observe sexism in the gaming community for my sociology project." I was fucking pissed but two of the club officers were also on the tumblr feminism kick at the time and said she could go for it. Apparently I was the only one who thought it was fucked up that someone would come into a club and say, "I got a hypothesis that you guys are assholes, mind if I stick around and record it?" Later found out she didn't find any instances of sexism and had to switch topics, rofl.

I know a lot of female gamers, and only one of them (one of the funniest/most-grounded people I know) plays male characters because they don't like the treatment.
