EVE General Discussion

I have to admit I see the OP's point. I have a daughter and stepdaughter, as well as son and stepson. I've become sensitive to, or aware of, how the language of males tends to use references toward females as signs of weakness, clumsiness or even ineptitude. This is odd since I also saw my daughter coldc0ck my sun and lay him out for fifteen seconds. She KO-ed him with one punch. At the same time she was making straight As while he was struggling to make Cs.

In the competition of life, there's no clear leader. Of the females, one has a phd (is a medical doctor) and the other holds a masters in education. The boys? One is a certified mechanic. The youngest is in graduate physics trying to obtain a masters. (He has a ways to go.) I've thought the level of disrespect to be intolerable when I see terms like "douchebag" tossed around. I know now people who use such terminology have low opinions of themselves, and are unwittingly revealing themselves to be rather under developed.

I think it's important for EVE to have a solid mix of male and female players. I'm always impressed to find rabid PvP females, as well as carebear males. It shows a diversity that can only help the game. I join in the OP's call (even though she can't help being tongue-in-cheek about most things) for us in this community to set the example of truly advanced thinking and embrace equality for real. Equality in allies. Equality in enemies. 'T is a good thing.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention in your usual sardonic way, Ms. Repose.

they still dont, since they only see airbrushed and digitally enhanced pictures that will leave them VERY disappointed at the look of a real woman.

I am deeply offended by this thread.

Nobody gives a **** about you being a girl on the internet. Hope this helps.
