Oh haha this joke never gets old. Really, it's the first time a thread like this appears in this forum. In fact, I think this is the first time ever this observation is mentioned on the internet itself.

Come on, make a joke about how we belong in the kitchen now. That's what everyone expects from you. It will be hilarious, I tell you.

You belong to the kitchen.

I try to build my mass effect teams like an action movie, so we need a diverse group. We need the streetwise black guy, the bad ass chick, and maybe a british guy. I try to get my british guy and streetwise black guy to be one and the same, so we can get a stoner, a hacker, or a latino transgender stoner hacker from australia.


group of guys i play with consists of 1 candiana stoner of latino decent *we think* 1 scottsman *go man skirt* a black man named ducky and me, an over caffinated hamster. Currently looking for one female to expand group diversity. Must enjoy blowing sht up, calling us names/telling us to go back to our basements and quite walks on the beach while wearing body armor.


that does sound like an ace RPG (pen & paper ) group

Probably N7 weapons.

We just don't make our presence apparent.

I think that you can find rather many female gamers on BSN compared to other gaming networks. Bioware seems to be able to create games that attract more women than most games.
Even my little sister plays Mass Effect, even though she never played another game in her live, and she loves it.

But I take it we are talking multiplayer here and I can see why you wouldn't come across a lot of women while playing it.
I for one try to only use my mic if I have to. I simply don't like people finding out I'm a girl, because I had to many bad experiences. Harassment against female gamers is rather common I'm afraid :/

Did the space magic, not only stop the Reaper, destroy the Mass Relays, but created a Time Vortex and we are all in the 1930! Ladies are no longer Housewives, they have the vote you know! And comments / jokes about beign tied to the kitchen, make me ashamed to be a man.

The Mass Effect Universe showed us a human race that has finally got rid of its bigoted view on race, gender, religon and same-sex relationships. Hell they even had human / alien and human / machine relationships. Right enough raging....

I would say N7 weapons are rarer as this is the first chance I have had to get a nice shine N7 gun!! Been playing multiplay for less than a month, percentage-wise I would say more female players (20 - 40%) than N7 goodies. Commander Shepard comes as both Male and Female, several female aliens characters in multiplayer... they all can't be controlled by guys?

I'm a girl, and I am a gamer, so obviously we do exist. N7 weapons, however...I've only unlocked one. Image IPB

We exist. We're just choosy about whom we associate with.

Few days ago I played a match with my black/silver armor turian soldier.

My team had a hot pink colored turian sentinel that glowed like a fairy princess in his tech armor.


I'm a chick. Fairy princess turian was not.

LOL, are you kidding? I had logged over 1000 hours in Skyrim, before I took a break, and I've never even touched a Wii. I've been gaming long before that...monstrosity came out.

I go way back to the Atari (you know, the joystick with one button?), when I was playing Centipede and Yar's Revenge.

Oh, crap. I just dated myself.

I'm a female, but usually only use a mic when playing with my 18 year old son. We usually go into a private party to chat nowadays though, because as soon as people hear him call me Mom, someone has to comment. Some people think it's cool that a mother and son are playing together, and some of the immature folk have to make ugly comments. Nothing like a round of "yo mama" jokes to make me laugh and make him uncomfortable.

When I play alone, the rare times I've actually spoke in voice chat, few people seem to realize I'm female. Apparently I have one of those voices that isn't feminine enough to be definitively female. Also could be the smoking for over 20 years, but whatever.

But yes, females (of all ages) do exist in the multiplayer. From what I've seen, a lot of us are cautious about talking in public voice chat.

I have played with female gamers. In fact, I share my account with my girlfriend, who is playing as I type this.

Nothing special. They just kill the **** out of the enemies just like any other player. I don't see how it is of any relevance that your teammates are male or female. Are female players supposed to kill reapers more kindly or something?

If your Krogan Vanguard is not an absolutely nauseating combination of green and pink, you're doing it wrong.

Mine is cyan and pink. Is that passable?

I'm female, and I have two N7 weapons. Therefore, I must be a figment of your imagination!

Is it nauseating? That's the most important bit, really.

:huh: Mine is sporting American flag colors. Should I repaint it? Amerikrogan would not approve I believe. :(

I always assume all Krogan and Batarians I play with are women, and all Asari are men.

Okay, the first thing may be a bit of a stretch. But I bet the second one is probably right most of the time.

No one cares - a Carnifex X trumps either of them.
