“And then there’s the uber-male loser who insists on making fun of me for every mistake.I must be stupid because I’m a girl.Yeah,no one else ever dies by making a mistake in a video game.Ass.”

Yes, these kinds of people are happening fairly often. I must admit, thinking back of the few times it happened to me, I was fairly embarrassed, but writing this text, I must admit that several of the scenes had its scene of comedy. Also, I noted, that two different approaches are possible. The first logical one would be the approach of myself, to overcome the embarrassment, and simply improve your own playing style a bit. It is difficult, but a passion for the subject and the fitting manners are able to overcome everything.
The second approach was the one of my sister, who apparently made said mistakes voluntarily as an excuse to execute verbal dominance over her fellow players. I think she particularly likes the opportunity to cuss other players out, while she owns / plays against them.

I guess in retrospect, both approaches are valid.

Also, as I googled a bit, I found a few purely female clans. Apparently, they were very good in all sorts of games. So, I can now say: Yes, there are some women who can play shooter games. As there are some man who can also do the same. The rest of them seems to be quite mediocre, hopping on every opportunity to blame anything but them self for their bad performance at the games. My splendid little sister had executed the entire enemy team more often then Quentin Tarrantino uses the F-word in his films, and apparently, she had dominated the males in the group so much, that they invited her afterwards to join their Clan. My sister insisted,very crudely,that she did not want to join. I think any reader should be able to guess which kind of language she used, and why I did not print it out.

“Here’s the bottom line:If I want to have some kind of sex with you,I’m not going to do it texting or talking to you on Xbox Live.In addition,my lack of penis doesn’t make me bad at video games.

I’m a girl. I like to play video games. Stop ruining it for me.”

Now,in response to her fabulous article, and to imitate her choice of words:
“Here’s my bottom line, after reading your article: I understand that you do not want to have sex with me. This feeling is mutual. Yet at the same time, you have nothing against sending out these signals in bars in hopes of recognition in forms of alcohol. You are apparently not able to defend yourself verbally against a group of mostly 16 year olds. Your lack of a male reproductive organ does indeed not make you bad at said games. Your lack of dedication and patience, and your nonexistent will to improve does. We have a word for such women: Lazy.

I am a gentleman gamer. I like to play games too. Stop whining, and stick to games you actually are willing to play, until you have learned how to deal with boys. Shooter games are a battle of wit and skills, not of the genders. Stop ruining it for everybody….

Costs for this article:
Pizza for the evening: 20 Dollars.
Pepsi for the evening: 15 Dollars.
Convincing my little sister to let me play with her sacred console: 10 Dollars
Watching my sister play and dominate a bunch of guys (in-game and verbally): priceless
Correcting a sexist lazy girl who apparently is unable to develop humor: priceless
Knowing that that was just a game and not taking that stuff to hard: very, very valuable….
