Why are people arguing over such a minuscule detail that is completely irrelevant to the OP. And what is the purpose of pointing out whether or not he is being "politically correct"? | ||

I just like the record to be accurate- for osmeone who has 'internet police' as part of his TL account you should understand. Soon as people accept Idra as the #1 American player over the new female scarlett player, i'll be content. | ||

In all seriousness, what is the purpose of wasting time discussing pointless banter? I'm just trying to understand ;/ | ||

I'd say KawaiiRice at the moment, but Sheth, Idra, and many others certainly make a case. In about 6 months, it will be qxc with no question. | ||

I first began in April 2011. I began playing at the same time, but I can't get out of gold to save the life of me :[ Oh well, will be exciting to see the further career of an unexpected wildcard from here on! | ||

While she wants to be called "she", that's fine with me but I don't think it's right to label her as a female gamer. Labels are imperfect. She says she's a girl, so either accept it or don't. | ||

All of the drama is in the community's collective head. Gender is something that is largely socially-constructed, so if you want to be respectful then you should accept Scarlett as a female. Labels are for canned soup, not pro-gamers. | ||

Labels are used in everyday situations, do you personally think she should be known as a female gamer? | ||
