Where is Ray? You figure he would've shown up a few hours ago with the kind of things that were being said....
Hey hey, it would make a good movie Mikey. We already know your stuff, so it's all good.![]()
I don't know. It should be as easy as saying you're a guy, but it's just not. There's all sorts of stupid baggage attached to being a girl online. I know, I've directly experienced some of it, especially in the wretched hive of scum and villainy that is free Phantasy Star Online. ^_~ There's a whole bunch of really nice guys around, but there's also a ridiculous amount of sleazebags. You can't avoid them offline, but I can see how it'd be easier just to hide your gender online, and thereby avoid the largest part of it. Yes you can just tell them to piss off. But you shouldn't have to... I can imagine it'd get pretty tiresome if you didn't have the trump card of 'Sorry, I'm a dude.' to fall back on.
Besides, people should treat you the same regardless of your gender anyway. Sadly that'll never happen offline simply because people do make judgements, but it can happen online.That's the nice thing about the internet, all that really matters is your personality... People can't count anything else against you unless you hand it to them on a silver platter.
