Otherwise a pretty good vid on the subject, one of the better ones I've seen but I mostly just don't care about the topic, so if you could do the next one on the uniform that'd be appreciated.

I also think the kind of attention a girl gets in esports depends a lot on how she presents herself to the community. If a female gamer presents herself sexually, like tara babcock, then she can expect people to respond to her sexually. Everything she does will be framed in that light, the same way that popular/infamous streamers like idra, destiny, and avilo have all of their content framed in a certain light as well. I think the best example of a female gamer being treated reletivaly (and surprisingly) fair by the community is Scarlett. Considering her rather unique circumstances, I think overall the community has been very mature and respectful to her. It could also be said that, do to her unique circumstances, she hasn't been sexualized nearly as much as other female progamers, and the community reactions to her might have something to do with that. I think its because she behaves exactly like a progamer and performs like one too, making her largely indistinguishable from her male peers. | ||

Some very good points were raised that we as a community SHOULD improve but will be very hard to actually get done at any point in the near future. Because as you said, we're a 'tight-knit' community. We'll need a bigger community for stuff like this to go more smoothy and acceptable in general. I feel whenever I watch a girl's stream, they're either incredibly unskilled & looking for attention really badly (Because why would you stream at a low level if you have nothing else to add..?) or genuinly interested in the scene. Then again, those people mostly don't stream. I guess it's to do with the fact that I've been brought up the way that people who invest so much in their looks & attention, mostly don't have the best intentions. Even though this is not necessarily always true. It's really about consistency, staying in the scene, and slowly, little by little you'll gain enough respect.Just like Megumixbear, I think she was pretty unpopular at the start, but gained respect over time (atleast by me.) Much appreciated ♥ | ||

User was warned for this post I'm not allowed to express my love for such a sexy KHAN uniform? Whatever I don't mind a mod note. I hope OP didn't misunderstand though. All I meant to say was: Wow the uniform. Pics pls. Pretty good vid. Make vid about the uniform pls. If that wasn't clear enough I'm sorry, I was merely trying to be a bit 'clever'. | ||
