User blog comment:GamerPr1ncess/Why are some female gamers underestimated?/@comment-1376519-20100330205146

Girls usually don't play video games; if they do play video games, it usually pertains to one of those fashion games or a game that involves cute creatures, like Pokemon. It's hard to find a girl that likes video games, let alone FPS's. It's not that they shouldn't play, but that they usually choose not to play. Whether this involves them believing that video gaming is violent, time wasting, masculine, or not very fun I do not know...

The reason we male gamers believe that girls shouldn't play usually involves the fact that it is rare that girls play and we usually believe that FPS's are very masculine. This makes it very hard to believe that a girl actually plays something like COD.

For me, I personally don't care who plays; everybody has the right to play; it isn't something that just involves one sex. I look down on people who are either sexist or racist, as they are ruining the experience for everybody. Anybody can be good at COD, and I think it's cool that I am playing with a large variety of players, whether they are male, female, or come from another nation! As long as they follow the rules, anybody can play!

By the way, I'm sorry that I made this so long. :)
