it may seem amazing or whatever, but i'm female and enjoy playing kdice. however along with other female players, i receive a lot of unwanted attention and abuse from having a picture of myself, not slutty, not erotic, just a picture of my face, as my icon.
i'm not overreacting here, trust me. i don't mind being told i look attractive. it's a compliment, right? too many in a day and it gets repetitive but, even so, it's no reason to complain. what i'm talking about here is moments like this, from maybe ten minutes ago. weedeater: i blow a loud all over the chich in the pick teal eramus: a loud? weedeater: load eramus: hrmm weedeater: lol weedeater: got excited weedeater: lol Sophalis: oh dear god. Sophalis: seriously. get a girlfriend or something weedeater: why weedeater: i can rub one out weedeater: looking at you yea.. i'm really fed up of guys thinking they can say things like that to me and other girls on here and get away with it. i'm not amazingly feminist but behaviour like that is disgusting and inappropriate. this is a dice game, not an internet chat room, and women should be able to play on here without sexual harrassment like the example i just quoted. i'd like to hear some opinions... thanks. |

at 3:32 PM, Thursday November 22, 2007 EST you must have looked for soooooo long for a person who looks exactly like you, i mean the person you are impersonating, with that piece of paper exclaiming that they infact are a man.
Congratulations. I'm sorry Les but i don't think anyone else gets the high intelectual humour. i did, so keep them coming. :) |

at 3:59 PM, Thursday November 22, 2007 EST Ok, you might not like me saying this, but to me it just seems like you want attention.
Seriously with a photo like your avatar, on an Internet community likely to consist largely of sexually deprived male teenagers, you actually expected mature comments? All you have to do is take down the avatar. Simple as that. If you're here for the game, then the game will continue whether you use that avatar or not. I'm by no means defending the people who are saying these things, but to me it would be inheritly obvious that this would happen. |

at 4:06 PM, Thursday November 22, 2007 EST that picture does not pove anything, anybody can copy that pic and your avi and go to another forum and use them to pretend he's a girl
post a pic with today's date and also write kdice or something even then it not proves that the girl in the pic is you; it only means that you can get a girl to take those pics etc why do you want us to believe you are a girl anyway? |

at 4:11 PM, Thursday November 22, 2007 EST Why do I find this funny? Posting yet another picture of yourself to prove you are a female? I dunno.....just strikes me as friggin hilarious.
BTW....still not buying it....I see an apple. ;) |

i'm not sure exactly what you mean by the phrase "you just want attention" there. yes, of course i enjoy the compliments that i receive now and then. any girl likes to be told they're attractive. i've already said that that kind of attention is no problem, and that i'm sure nor i, nor any other girl here, has any complaint about it. however, the adverse attention i've explained in this thread crops up equally commonly, and, as i and others have said here, we don't enjoy or appreciate that kind of attention in any way, and we certainly don't have pictures of ourselves up because we "want attention" of that kind. i'm not sure if you're saying that girls who play kdice get off on being insulted and harrassed, but that appears to be the implication. interesting logic there. |
