    these are the types of people to say “you wouldn’t survive a COD lobby” meanwhile women go through through they encounter on a cod lobby on a regular basis

      I wonder if people like that ever talk to actual women. ‘Yeah this racist gamer dude totally insulted my mother online’

      Meanwhile all women I know irl have been stalked in the middle of the night, attacked, sometimes raped even. Gamers wouldn’t survive a nanosecond as a woman.

        Like, I went to an unlimited spaghetti night at a local bar this evening. Afterwards I went home and while walking I decided to take a short cut of like 500m through a pitch black park with no lights. Didn’t even hesitate.

        Meanwhile my gf who is currently out with a group of friends asks me to keep my phone on at the loudest volume until she comes home just in case some guy is harassing her on the way home. Like, I can’t comprehend having to deal with that 24/7 while being out.

      Much like a rich person living as any poor person, I’d like to see your average Joe, hell, any of these tough macho men types put up with even half of the utter vileness and inhumanity I’ve dealt with in my life. It would break them in a day.
