I read several pages of this, and I'm both depressed and distressed that a large portion of responding males seem to believe that not one single woman who plays EVE is attractive in any way. On the other hand, I'm beyond enraged when I see other women using their gender in a perverted corruption of its elegance and beauty; they con, swindle, and manipulate men in a fashion only befitting of the basest females of society. I have been called a prude, but surely some of the hostility being flung in my face by men is a direct result of these tramps, who so flippantly toy with very deep-seated urges and emotions? I assure you, gentlemen and not-so-gentle men, that there are those of us who are neither homely nor histrionic, who aspire to grace and poise in all things... even Internet space ships.


Generally speaking, yeah, there is a mindset that if you are female and playing an MMO, you are not attractive. I know better, but any females I meet (if they are truly of the fairer sex) I give a relatively average appearance in my head. Just makes it easier if they all look the same. Then again, I also assume every person behind the toon is a male unless otherwise corrected. This allows me to operate on a professional level without worrying about other distractions.

On your point of harlotry, I think that it's unfair to assume that all women who use their charms are of the basest classification. Only a fool does not use the tools given to him to advance and succeed in life. History is rife with the mechinations of beautiful women who, through a twist of gender fate, could not seize power for themselves and thus used a man to do it for them. I do not begrudge them for that, rather I applaud them. I do not think that it lowers their value as a person, because they are making use of what they have. If anything, I view with contempt the men that can so easily be manipulated. At my age, I see the games for what they are, but ten years ago would have been another matter.

I have a demotivational poster that reads; SEXISM - Only ugly women complain about it. Whether a true stereotype or not is irrelevent (Of course, I have another that says STEREOTYPES - They exist for a reason...take that as you will), and I am actually surprised someone hasn't fired that grapeshot in response to what you posted. Nevertheless, how you view things doesn't make them any more right or wrong then how I view things. If using your tools is abhorrent and offensive to you, then by Jupiter's Crack, don't use them. You can't change others who will use them, to greater or lesser effect. Rather, you should take pride in how you conduct yourself and go about your life.

As for the WGoE, seems like a nice bunch. Visited their channel last night, had a goofy chat with a guy named Deuce and then went about my merry way. The rest of them reminded me of cats when you let the dog in...very wary and quiet, with that lurker mode on. Good times.


hmmmm harlotry.... new skill book?

In my life , I know only the female members of my family and two other non-family members women that aren't evil, scum-sucking douchebag women.
BTW, one of my mains is a girl and the very first Alliance she was in, I was getting hit on by a native CCP (Iceland) individual.
when I got on comms, he **** in his pants and I told him, he needs to learn how to spell his country with a small suffix added to it. lmao

Nope...I don't expect any new stalkers...nor is this a troll attempt.

After all, when Laedy single handedly won last year's alliance tourney, CCP Soudwave actually let her put in a plug for the public channel. At any given time there are around 20 - 40 "certified" ladies playing EVE. They have gone through a rather rigorous interview (voice and questions to eliminate imposters etc.)

Anyway, we occasionally put up an advert to any ladies interested and also for guys wanting to meet "real" girls. That's all. :)



I want a pretty kitty, Zixie. Big smile

That is enchanting and just the type of woman Eve needs more of. I think. Girls and Eve Online? I just don't know what would attract more female gamers to this awesome sandbox. Vampires? No. A farm in every CQ? No. The Nex? No.
It is a tough call but just as there are very few women who play rugby perhaps Eve is mostly a guys game and to try and draw more female gamers in without diluting the confrontational and risk elements that makes this game so unique and addicting might not be possible. It's not that hopeless though, women are acting more and more as self-absored and brutish as most men have always acted so they may make their way here yet. In the meantime the bigger the breasts of the avatar the more likely it is a guy behind the screen. Remember that.

Meh: In-office romances = baaaaaaad idea.

Because if/when things go pear-shaped, then you'll still have to see and deal with that person everyday, and that's notwithstanding the results of whatever office-gossip may arise thereby.



Doesn't have to be in your office. I will frequently go to an office a couple floors away and ask the ladies if they would like to transfer to my staff. Works every time sometimes.

There is no more awkward an experience than sharing voice comms in Eve with a female.

Why? Because without fail you'll get the guys doing one of two things:

1) OMG GURL LAWLLLL **** OR GTFO LAWRLLLL

2) OMG I don't want to be like 1) .. lets all be artificially nice and fluffy because girls are sugar and spice and BAN THAT GUY FOR LINKING TO FUKUNG.

It's sad guys, really. If you stop trying to treat women like women (i.e. any differently than anyone else before you know their gender either way) then you just might find more playing.

The small handful of women I do know who play eve are largely indistinguishable in their humour and Eve etiquette from the guys.

The club dating service. grantee you get any woman you want. for only 19.99 you will recieve "The Club." how it works you go outside, find a woman, hit her with the club, and now you got a girl. This has been used in ancient times and there is no reason it wouldn't work today. order now and for only 25.99 you will recieve not one but two clubs!

We have at least 4 known girls in our 5460 member alliance.

Two of them do hang out in the Bacon Bar on our mumble, there is an occasional awkward moment where someone behaves like a colossal neckbeard, but mostly we're fine.
