Echoing what Lovely Lumplings said, its mostly about the swathes of "men" acting like boys , showing their *beep*ers around as if they need to prove something they don't seem to have: general decency/manners, some empathy

I meet plenty of nice, talktative and understanding guys ingame , but they only get out of their 'closet' *cough* if they feel comfy enough, and no they dont necesarilly know I'm female because I dont tell people, it's because people ask, I get introduced by other pilots. Ocassionaly I hint at it or make a forum post like now because the perspective gets lost here way too quick Roll

I enjoy PvP (What a shock hmm?) besides my PvE but I dont connect to the attitude that comes with it...the smacktalk, the ego's. I don't ask people their gender ingame but I personally can't imagine women being such lousy and unempathic pilots like the I see flying around

Just an hour ago I tried to inform a hostile pirate corp (Basgerin or short for 'SCUM') about another gang two systems out that was camping , just hoping I could witness some sparkles and perhaps a little 'Ty for the info!" but I was received by a wall of laughter and arrogance: the typical pricks who care less because
"This is the Net and I douche myself around because I am too lazy/unable to invest in people who arent like me (So F*** off hahaha!) ) It used to pain me but you can only shrug and think of the moments you meet/kill people who get into chat with and it ends up in a nice friendship or atleast a few tips on how to do improve your gameplay

If you don't understand this or even think I am full of misandry you now know the simple reasons why most 'women' prefer to fly around cloaky, literally (You probably met more than you think, doesnt mean they tell you)

Merci
