Hot Chicks in Dresses at IPL4 - Page 4

If anything, the fact that wearing a dress is seen as "cheaply sold sex" says a lot more about the community's maturity level and Victorian ethic than it does about the women who actually wear them. Essentially all you're doing is criticizing women for professional and "too hot" at the same time, yet there are hardly women in bikinis strutting around with a microphone. I think if you feel as if they're not dressed adequately enough to the point where you find them too distracting, based on the tameness of what these women choose to wear, the problem is on you and not them.

It seems to bother you that SC2 might not be so male centric anymore, or that women are just too problematic, like an all male boarding school headmaster who believes the young men musn't get distracted by the temptresses. You overlook the fact that a pretty red dress and makeup is hardly a big deal for more mature and adult audiences. So maybe you should focus on criticizing the maturity level of the community, and possibly yourself, if it can't handle something as pathetic as a woman wearing something mildly formal to an event that wants to take pride in its formality. Let's try to get passed being hypersensitive over women in the community being "attention whores", especially considering how many male ones already exist in the SC2 community overall. And let's not kid ourselves about the rampant subtle sexism affecting how receptive we are to female gamers and, sadly, female figures in general. If there is an ounce of truth at all in the "attention whore" stereotype, The community is so off-putting to most women that the only ones desperate enough to put up with the abuse in the spotlight TEND to be "attention whores", and the sooner that's realized, the sooner things will get better.
