Not quite, it’s because the lower ranked “players” can’t stand to loose to anyone, remove the female of this equation, and you will see them pick on somebody else, typically flaming their mom, or something stupid like that
Smack talk is a common part of FPS games, doesn’t matter if there is girls in the match or it’s “boys” only
but hey I enjoyed the drawing style. <3
The point isn’t that there’s smack talk, it’s the nature of the talk. Though it’s most vitriolic against females, the same can be said of minorities who sound like such over your headset. It’s a good indicator of the fear and anger inherent to a group in power losing its status to a group deemed (by their own narcissism) inferior.
