It makes me sad too. For me it's more about breaking social barriers than sex appeal. Take any person who is unlikely to be an SC2 fan (based on stereotypes) and show 80,000+ people that person's enthusiastic interest in SC2 and as long as that person has a charming personality and/or is physically attractive, instant fans. And there's no stereotype about gamers being won over by sex appeal as far as I know. Sex appeal is universal. Being sad about others' interests and success is counterproductive to your own interests and success. If it's harmless and you don't like it, ignore it. Or if you think it's harmful and you're not capable of doing anything about it, ignore it. Seeing people say this thread makes them sad makes me sad. Hahaha | ||

i understand your point tyler, but the majority (not all, just the majority) of the people posting here are only doing so cos they're desperate and cant get any kind of female interaction in real life. Its quite depressing on some levels | ||

Hahaha This is all great if the person doing it is genuinely enthusiastic about the game… but I have a feeling that isn’t the case. Similar to a lot of the other “enthusiastic” women in the community… if you like the game that much you play it you don’t run around doing interviews and making yourself appear completely uneducated about the game … you push the barrier and become one of the best female gamers in the market. But I can guarantee she will never play more then 25 games and never understand the game even on the lowest level but she will be at almost every event in North America… I guess even the UFC has ring girls and the NFL has cheerleaders… but they are smart organizations and don’t let them talk. Remember when the UFC had girls interviewing the fighters... then they realised how dumb they sounded because they knew nothing about the sport... they replaced them with a man... edit... on a side note as much as i disliked her interviews the Lindsay meets a DB is pprobably in the top 5 things from the NASL grand finals, great event great games. | ||

Oh we do, because she's hilarious in the interviews, she has an enthusiasm for the game, and she's good looking, you make it all sound like it's a bad thing... | ||

Her enthusiam was great, even after it seemed like people were constantly complaining everywhere about her. Until eventually everyone started getting obsessed. All im saying is, i doubt there would be anywhere near as much of a fan base for her if she wasnt so attractive, but thats hardly her fault. I hope she stays in the community more, and that this wasnt just a 1 off, cos it really was seeing someone being enthusiastic. And if there are gonna be hundreads of people watching just cos shes pretty, well i pity them and suggest they get into the real world and meet some girls for themselves | ||

Its quite depressing on some levels You just can't see the beautiful person she is underneath her beautiful person exterior. You could incept several layers of Lindsey and you'd still see that radiant beauty right down to her core. I agree with your post, it is a shame that people judge others by their looks. What I think you miss is that it happens to people who are attractive as much as people who aren't. I mean here you are suggesting no one would love Lindsey if she wasn't gorgeous, which is absolutely untrue. Were it the most beautiful woman in the world showing us how to approach something new with an open mind instead of being judgemental and mocking the esports community on the preconceived notions of what video game fans are like, or the ugliest woman in the world, it is still a wonderful and refreshing thing. it is excellent. For reference, here is a woman (Jen Schiller) who thinks we are all losers, anti socials, and by her own admission thinks we are not normal (and that she is)+ Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://otakujournalist.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/otaku_journalist.jpg) Lindsey transcends superficialities. She just happens to be beautiful while doing so. She is excellence. | ||
