It gets old going into game after game and having some random kid start something. Usually I am only in game chat for SnD, that's it, I'm usually in a party when I'm playing. But once I go into game chat, in any game to be honest, but CoD seems to be the worst. I get trashed the second I speak. I get called a number of things; whore, fat, ****, etc. I used to ignore it but it got extremely annoying rather fast. I have a low toned voice, it's not squeaky as about 7/10 of the other girls on Live, so I'm always asked if I'm a guy or a girl. I can understand this in a way, since you do have some guys with feminine like voices. But once it's determined I'm a girl, I am told that I'm a guy.

My question is, should girl gamers get the same respect as guy gamers?

Sometimes. Girl gamers get a lot of hate because some girl gamers try to make it a big point that they're a girl to get attention. Also, some gamer girls do bad and drag the team down.

They should, but this is such an old argument.

If you let it bother you then it is bound to keep happening. You'd be better off just muting the people that do it than getting upset and arguing with them.

They should but with the amount of immature people on Xbox i doubt they will, there is some who actually have respect for all players but when they do show it they never get it back.

I can see, in a sense, if people show more respect but most of the time they don't do it because they are in a party with friends and want to just be a jackass really, sometimes when they are alone they either will not talk or actually be nice.

It all reverts back to how people treat each other but sadly it will not be like real life, where most of the time people will and HAVE to show respect, its a online gaming community, they try to act tough just to impress others.

A girl/women gamer should get the same respect as a male. If not people are being Sexist.

In all honesty I don't care what gender you are so long as you can play the game.
