Girls Gone WoW - The New Battle of the Sexes

GameAlmighty's Trina Williams writes, "If a girl walks into a classroom or a store in America she's not likely to hear guys yelling about how hot she is or ask her about her bra size. Social norms would clearly define that behavior as unacceptable and rude. So what makes it okay to do this in Azeroth?"

1 - It's not okay...

...it's just that the world is full of socially retarded cowards who use the internet (and multiplayer games) as places to say things they would never have the courage to say in real life.

See? I just did it there.

Noooo...wait. I've said that in real life, too. But I think you get the point.

3.1 - Stop Generalizing

Wow is just a game like any other game, so calling people who play it losers is kinda like calling yourself a loser, isn't it? Behavior in WoW is typical of all Online games, like Halo, when women are present. There is a fraction of people who only behave because they fear reprisal or punishment. Unlike the real world there is infinitely less risk acting like this online, so the people who were inhibited are now free to act out how they really feel. This isn't typical behavior of all people who chat or play online.

It happens in real life as well. Only it's rather rare because it takes one to be single minded and reckless as well as feeling absolutely secure about the social consequences. What does that show us? There are a way more single minded and reckless males that act like that when social consequences in online gaming are almost non existent.
