So I mostly post on the League of Legends section of TL, since that's the game I play. There was some drama going on where a popular, high ELO player had a crush on a girl (both of them stream). They were supposed to meet up at IEM New York, and the girl kissed a few other guys, and maybe some other stuff went on - no one really knows and it's all hearsay at this point.

Of course, nerdrage occurs with people calling her a slut, a bitch, etc. etc. - typical sexist slut shaming. Let me show you some of these gems. (The entire thread can be found here, but the fun doesn't really start until page 5-6.)

If you've ever wondered why women aren't a bigger part of "gaming culture", your prime examples are here.

It is, but you can read it that way.

Also, this talk about becca/chaox is full of double standards/sexism. Yeah, it probably wasn't the smartest thing to do, but if they weren't dating, she's got no obligation. Why are people trying to slut shame and call her a bitch? There's a difference between "this was probably not a good thing to do" and "OMG GIRLS SUCK SEE THEY DO THIS SHIT ALL THE TIME". It's especially terrible in the reddit thread.

From what I understand, they were atleast good friends, and she also knew chaox somewhat of a crush on her. If you're actually friends and know someone has a crush on you you don't make out with others in front of them.
I'm much more interested in what happened with hotshot though lol.


What she did was pretty silly. And at least a bit slutty. But she has no obligations to Chaox, if she's that easy that she made out with three dudes and potentially did more than make out with Hotshot then she obviously wasn't interested in Chaox outside of a friendship (that or chaox is clueless in regards to women). I think the biggest issue here is Hotshot being a cheater.


Man makes out with 3 girls = hi5 bro
Girl makes out with 3 men = omg fucking slut

Talk about double standards. They usually come from people who'd love to just once meet a girl in their life who just makes out with them within a few minutes.

Stop trying to make girls feel bad for being open with their sexuality, ur making my job harder. Thx.

You can't ignore obvious differences between the genders and the roles they play in a society and think you're being all tolerant and shit.
Hopefully what is said in the following clip will give you some food for thought.

Wow this girl has 3k viewers now, this must be a pretty big deal over in the LoL General Forums.

By the way, there is a pretty big difference in our society between a man being a slut and a woman being one. For men, sex is a base biological urge, so it's pretty natural to want to sleep around (sure, you can and should restrain yourself, but that's another issue). For women, there is an urge, but biologically they are programmed to be more attracted to one single person and not sleep around. In the cases of most women who are promiscuous, and especially for "groupies" like this girl and other gamer-girls who camwhore themselves and sleep with well-known players, they are doing it solely for attention and to feel loved because they're not happy with themselves.

It's too bad she's an emotional trainwreck, but I don't have much sympathy for girls like her. She flaunts her body for attention, helps someone cheat on his girlfriend, and is just generally a pitiable type of person. At least in the case of a manslut, he's doing it because he just likes sex, not because he wants to be idolized and manipulate people.

You are a sexist through and through. Do you really think gender issues are a zero sum game? Because women get more rights, that means men's are reduced? Oh, what's that? You're saying men have problems too? HOLY SHIT I NEVER WOULD HAVE GUESSED. TOO BAD THAT'S NOT WHAT THIS IS ABOUT AT ALL.

I don't think you understand how much privilege you have as a male - not to mention, that has nothing to do with calling girls sluts. Are you really saying that it's okay to tell women that they're not allowed to be open with their sexual preferences and decisions, but we should praise men for getting with women?

If you've ever wondered why there aren't more girls in the gaming community, it's because of people like you.

EDIT: Not saying that I approve of sleeping around or whatever happened with BeccaBear (not that the details are clear), but it has nothing to do with the fact that it's a girl sleeping around.



about the issues raised in the video, if you ask any imployer, rather than just shouting about the issues when you dont know the answer. why dont they pay women then same, why dont women get the promotions, simple answer. children. they are expecting the woman some time in the next 10 years to fuck off for 18 months to have a kid. so they miss out on the promotion because the company cant do without their manager for 18 months. then when the woman gets back the reason she misses on promotions is because shes 'too old'. any man still at her level will be too old too, they prefer to promote the youngest people who fit the criteria because they have the best chance of staying with the company for the longest time. thats just how it is.

on the points about women and children first, it doesnt have to be a zero sum issue. the point is that 'feminist' only want to end injustice when it affects them, they never make marches and meetings about ending women first. this means they arent about ending injustice at all, they are about ending injustice only when it affects them. and this causes them to lose all credibility. if they were called sexists (would be a good play on words right!) and they campaigned against all gender related issues then they would get more far reaching support and wouldnt look like hypocrites when they demand change

You, too, are a sexist!

Yes, because women don't want to have sex. What fucking time period are you from, Victorian England?

For women, there is an urge, but biologically they are programmed to be more attracted to one single person and not sleep around.


Yes, I am glad you showed everyone why this statement is true instead of trying to state it as fact based on some random belief. (Protip: Women can be attracted to anyone they want to! What a surprise!)

In the cases of most women who are promiscuous ... they are doing it solely for attention and to feel loved because they're not happy with themselves.


You are saying that women who have sex with lots of different partners don't do it because they enjoy sex. Wow.

It's too bad she's an emotional trainwreck, but I don't have much sympathy for girls like her. She flaunts her body for attention, helps someone cheat on his girlfriend, and is just generally a pitiable type of person.


I can smell the virgin nerdrage and holy shit does it stink.

At least in the case of a manslut, he's doing it because he just likes sex, not because he wants to be idolized and manipulate people.


YEAH MAN, IT'S OKAY FOR MEN THEY ONLY WANT SEX AND THAT'S NATURAL. WOMEN DO IT BECAUSE THEY NEED TO MANIPULATE MEN.

Holy shit, you have some fucked up views about women. Think about what you actually wrote.



its not a corperate mythology just because an american news network says so. american news networks have such ridiculous partisan bias that its barely worth watching anything they say. and i might be a bit sexist, most people are but no one told me to hate vaginas, im in a normal long term relationship thank you very much.

it's all well and good disagreeing with pretty much everyone who posts anything but theres no reason to go shouting around calling people names, grow up.

It's not sexist to understand that there are biological differences between men and women. For what it's worth, I have more experience with these gamer groupie types of girls than anyone else in this thread, and they're definitely not sleeping around because they like sex. Sex addiction can be a problem for men and women but we're talking about something different here, it's a self-esteem problem.

We're not talking about all women, we're talking about the one being referenced in this thread, the one who's manipulating people.

Yeah except that one little point you're missing where any moderately attractive woman can sleep with any man she wants whenever she wants to. I guess chicks need to start doing north of 9000 men since they have the same sex urges we do, right. I mean, if you could bone any chick in your sight I'm sure you'd stay as modest as your average slut.

Since the dawn of time in humans and in animals it's been women who've had the luxury of selecting their mates and putting out only for the best specimen they can get their hands on, and it's been men who've been busting their balls fighting each just to attract the attention of any random female "up to their standards" to the point where they let them copulate. Fucking peacocks grow rainbow tails just to get laid.

Unless you suck at it human sex is a perfect reflection of this factual reality. The woman gives herself to a man, and the man takes her and does it hardcore because that's how a true sexually open woman wants it. Not by banging dozens of guys, but by making the one guy she blesses with access to her punani go apeshit over it so he stays there.

Pretending women and men are the same has gotten really old and produces nothing but sissies and sluts. Boys have a penis and girls have a vagina. I don't even know why anyone would champion this contrived PC nonsense since it's not getting you any bonus points with real ladies. And skanks aren't too hard to impress...

You're a very bad troll. You shout in all caps and call people names instead of explaining your points with any kind of knowledge, because you have none. Are you a fan of this girl's stream or something? Seriously, put some content into your posts.


Do you lack basic reading comprehension? I don't give a fuck about what this girl did. What I do care about is the incredibly sexist attitudes that prevail regarding this situation, especially coming from people like you.

You claim to be "talking about the [woman] being referenced in this thread, the one who's manipulating people," but you've made sweeping statements like:

Do you actually not understand why this is sexist language?

You know what, I'll even give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that you're actually willing to part with your privilege enough to actually want to learn about why you're being a sexist. Here's some cool, easy to understand links explaining some of the basic things you've been saying that reflect your sexism.

http://finallyfeminism101.wordpress.com/2010/04/04/what-is-slut-shaming/
http://austintotamu.com/2011/08/geek-girls-and-the-problem-of-self-objectification/
http://www.amptoons.com/blog/the-male-privilege-checklist/



I like how none of your links have anything to do with psychology or physiology of different genders, they're just random opinion blogs. The second link actually emphasizes my point even more, it's saying exactly what I've been saying, so why would you even link it and then argue with me? The piece specifically says that there is a subculture of "geek girls" who objectify themselves for attention, none of your feminist empowerment bullshit. Pieces one and two aren't even relevant to anything I've said.

I don't care about your loud and obnoxious viewpoints and social blindness, you're entitled to all that. The thing that bothers me is that in every post you say something about how "nerds don't understand girls" or "this is what's wrong with gamer culture". Grow up son, I'm 30 years old and I've been around the fucking block. Don't stereotype me, and don't stereotype TL, there are so many different types of people on here. People who say crap like that are usually the ones who have no idea what they're talking about. Way to prove how open-minded you are by slamming an entire culture of people.

Men and women should be equal in rights, absolutely. But they aren't THE SAME, they work differently, at both a biological and cerebral level. It's not a question about inferiority/superiority (which is what "sexism" is about), it's about differences.
And "dumb feminism" proclaims that MEN = WOMEN which is simply not true.

Frankly, a lot of "girl gamers" are perfectly fine with the "gaming" environment without having to go batshit insane over any tidbit of "treated/considered differently because woman".
Wake the fuck up, it's always going to happen, both ways, and it's not a bad thing at all.
The whole concept of Galantry is sexist and absurd, if you don't consider the biological differences, for instance.

Anyway, I only know the rumors/gossips, but if they actually hold true, this "becca" girl is a slut, the guys banging her (same story as for kellymilkies) are idiots (especially those who had a relationship and screwed it up because of it) and I'm sad for Chaox who is probably the persona I like the most in "pro League of legends" got into that kind of problem.

PS : Also lolz @ "video game culture". What the fuck does this have to do with anything, the random "VIDEO GAMES ARE FOR KIDS" football/gun loving moron, or most religious persons are infinitely more "sexist" (your definition of it anyway) than most gamers. Grow up.

Are all of those comments from the LoL section? Just wondering.
But aside from that, I had to stop after the 3rd comment because i couldn't bother to read anymore of what they had to say (especially since they seemed to be saying similar things in most). I do notice that there are a lot of males in gaming who act in such fashion, but i wodner if they make up a minority or majority. =\

I can't believe the level of ignorance that is displayed here and is actually believed.
Thanks for making a thread to shame the ignorant shamers.
the second post made me laugh at its nonsensical understanding of the male and female sex drive.

I couldn't find anything too wrong with any of those posts.

Women aren't a part of gaming culture, because people voice their opinions on the internet?

I honestly just came in because I had no clue what the title should actually tell me.

Didn't bothered to read the comments you've selected - I've seen World-of-Warcraft-Role-Playing-Forums, I've seen it all ~.~

Such behaviour is everywhere and its always saddening to see the twisted and false thoughts that most persons have.

In the hypothetical situation where she is indeed a slut(more than likely), I still don't understand why anyone would make a big deal about it, be it online or in real life. The word slut exists because it refers to certain kinds of women. He's been living quite the protected life if this is the first time he's come across one.
Women are just as free to live the way they want as guys. No reason to shame them, just be a little less trusting next time.

I guess the LoL guys like their drama.

Men and women should be equal in rights, absolutely. But they aren't THE SAME, they work differently, at both a biological and cerebral level. It's not a question about inferiority/superiority (which is what "sexism" is about), it's about differences.
And "dumb feminism" proclaims that MEN = WOMEN which is simply not true.

and turn it into a huge deal.

Tbh dude some of those posts are over the line and you should report them but none of the women being 'discriminated' against have an immaculate track record.

If MC or Jinro or TLO were openly whoring around we would respond the same way (mostly)

There is something incredibly wrong with how many people have such strong opinions on something as benign as a girl video game tournament. It just seems so unhealthy to the internet psychologist in me that there's countless people who will argue with such conviction over it. I just don't understand it at all. To be so strongly opinionated on something like that screams emotional problems.

I am not down with white knightery in the least but it's too much to ignore. You are not a normal well adjusted human being if you are at all upset about girls having a video game tournament.

Okay I admit I didn't read op and just assumed it was about the new girl tournament announced

Would we? Because I wouldn't.

As IdrA has put it: "Personality is irrelevant."

Anyone else feel like the op is as nuts as the people he is quoting? Also, as a male, these guys do a pretty good job of removing any interest in lol. I get hating on some girl because she ran around on some guy but those opinions were just scary and sad.

Also pretty sure that this has nothing to do with gaming culture.

I totally disagree on the last point. I dont think any of us would give two shits if a well known progamer started sleeping around.

I mean, isn't Rekrul known for screwing hookers? He's still one of the most well respected members of the community. (Not a perfect analogy but I think its fitting)

P.S. I got nothing against Rekrul
(If im wrong about rek I am very sorry)

I still can't see the connection between those posts and a girl in a video game tournament.

There has to be some extra information/drama that the OP didn't tell us about.

Uh, look at what happened to Ret. He's a genuinely nice and great guy but the 'community' still lashed out against him when he kissed a girl that had a bf.

If you're talking about what I wrote it's because I assumed the most recent time TL members decided to share their opinions on girls was the zowie girl tournament and that these were all quotes from there

Yeah, this is pretty much why I am so bitter about the community. Shit like this happens a lot. And it's not like it's an attack on one particular girl, it turned into an attack on just women in general. I feel attacked by these kind of posts, and the whole discussion is not about me originally.

Even if it doesn't reflect the viewpoint of the majority of our community, it definitely stands out that most of them can't be fucked to defend another human being from this kind of treatment. :/ When you hear this really vocal minority? and nothing else, it's really easy to feel like everyone else probably agrees. It's depressing.

Thanks for making this blog. <3
