If there was any kind of prize, you couldn't legally exclude males. (See WSOP ladies' events) User was warned for this post | ||

Is it that inconceivable that the participants in a tournament would be chosen solely for that reason? Or does every tournament ever played need to be open to all qualified participants, all the time? Better not plan on playing in clan wars or friend-only tournaments if that's the case. | ||

As far as I know there are no gender restrictions on normal tournaments, so if girls are good enough they can just compete in those right? I understand the commercial value of female gaming, but what would really be good for competitive gaming is when a female can compete with the best of the guys. Emancipation goes both ways right. I'd say the "need" is that it would be cool for female gamers to have a tournament where they could play it out, and that it would be cool to show that there aren't only male players like we see in most tournaments. It also shows this to potential sponsors and female gamers unsure about SC2. | ||

People should be patient, if SC2 becomes big enough, has bigger exposure, outstanding female players will eventually appear. Now we have a small tournament, filled with stereotype symbolism. What a joke. Top level female players in any video game are rare. That's just the demographics. It's not sexism, it's reality. | ||

Would love to see more top female players. imo no reason they cant compete with men, other than just general lack of interest (and consequent smaller talent pool). If all-female tourneys are what's needed to get the ball rolling, I'm all for it. | ||

No class, TL-ers. No class whatsoever. Calling gamers who start a female-only clan sexist is about as ridiculous as Glenn Beck calling Obama racist. It makes no sense. | ||
