I’m glad that you took the feedback and want to better yourself. Unfortauntly the majority of WoW players don’t care and will become toxic the moment you mention being part of the lgbt community. It happens more often than not sadly.
I’ve actually only ever met one woman in wow who expected things to be given to her cuz she was a woman
Way back in cata, she was new raid recruit and tried to get every single boss drop funneled right to her cuz tehe girl
She didn’t last long
On the other hand, I have met significantly more men who are unga binga female here show feet
It sucks that you deal with this. But from personal experience I play with tons of different females and its all normal for them, our guild leader is a female. Just find a better group of people to play with. Its not like this for most females I have been around. I just did CN heroic last week in a raid grp with six ladies.
Find a more mature grp of people
Strange. Been playing wow for over 14 years with my wife and she’s never experienced this.
…Come to think of it. I just realized I as a male player with male avatars have been solicited more times than she has.

This is exactly why it’s a people thing. Women or those percived to be women may experience this unwanted attention more frequently but abusive persons aren’t limited to any specific gender and their interests may not be based on gender.
It’s not cool to víctim blame and some of that has been casually thrown out in this thread. It’s up to each one of us to be the best we can be and step up when we see unsafe behaviors occurring, not making excuses.
Thanks for the feedback. [quote=“Roaka-fenris, post:286, topic:935852”]
I think they are generally more intelligent than us, most of the time.
[/quote]. Is that a generalization?
I also wouldn’t assume being married or having a large number of kids holds a higher value than a single, childless person’s opinion on “creepy” guys. Speaking only from experience myself.
The meaning of creepy is relative and means nothing anymore…
If the girl knows the guy is hot or rich he can pretty much do whatever he wants.
If she doesnt know either then its creepy. I stopped caring long ago…
DO I agree that dudes in this world are creepy? Sure I do because they are but ive seen creepy behavior get rewarded because the guy was good looking or rich so yeah.
My advice is if it gets creepy to you in discord then bail out and save yourself the hassle because dudes arent gonna stop their behavior in discord.
Wut, I wasn’t the person who said the offensive term.
100% dude here and I never once. But I also don’t pretend to be one for free stuff. Sounds like you must have been one of the exceptionally lucky ones. If it were me i’d play along, turn on OBS and stream it while dude plays himself and makes me ad money.
That would be entertaining but that happen along time ago when I first started playing they didn’t have the technology back then.
That’s interesting. So many “females” in here playing the victim.
Who has blamed the victim for being exposed? No one. Is there blame for continuing to tolerate it? Yeah, you bet. That’s where common sense and personal responsibility should kick in. Obviously it’s easier to just cry about it and hope people feel sorry for you. If that’s how you live your life, must be hella miserable. To each their own.
Because you cannot or will not acknowledge it doesn’t mean it hasn’t happened.
bless bless
No one has said it did not happen or does not happen. It isn’t common. It is on you if you allow it to continue. If you make stupid choices and join voice with randos it is more likely I’d imagine.
Man, I just thought this was a real thread to gripe about my personal experiences but in hindsight I realize it was a bad place to do it.
Move along.
It seems to me that you are hanging out in the wrong discord channels. I recommend you find a more mature group of people to hang out with.
When looking for guilds/groups, do your homework before joining. Doing this will help reduce the chances that you end up in a creepy environment.
I’m sorry you had to go through that. If you are creeped out by your fellow guildies, you might want to bring it up with an officer. But I think it might be best if you found another guild.
When the game first started it was a slight sausage fest. There were few girls and male gamer’s weren’t as accustomed to playing with females in video games. You rarely saw females in the local arcades before they added fluff and plushie rewards (no offence by this). And MMO’s were still not anywhere near mainstream so most females either found WOW via boyfriends or brothers. So yeah it was very different back then.

The amount of generalizing you’re doing to squeeze your round peg into a square hole bothers me.
Done with this thread.
