toyota 05/10/20 12:06:44 PM #1:	https://twitter.com/eventhubs/status/1258949860109123584 I dont see why it is necessary as playing fighting games isnt some sort of competition where physicality/athleticism is a factor.I mean why would they do that when they dont even separate leagues via Controller used which is probably the closest thing that could be considered giving someone an advantage/disadvantage (For the most part it really doesnt btw). FFS there is that dude born with some condition where he is pretty much bed bound with limited arm control who plays with his face who can absolutely body a whole lot of able-bodied people out there. So to say women cant compete with the boys is kinda sexist tbh. I wonder if they will allow transgender/non-binary people though. Because there are quite a few at these competitions and they compete fine with the guys. Will it backfire where a lot of people might claim to be trans or something to compete in the league which might be perceived as 'easier' to get that prize money? Who knows. But I will be very interested in how it will be handled. <cite>toyota posted [p:938927601] in BREAKING: ...

Calwings 05/10/20 12:56:49 PM #14:	Just because they're making a separate league for the female players doesn't necessarily mean that the female players aren't going to be allowed to compete against the male players at all.

Wii_Shaker 05/10/20 1:00:41 PM #19:	The lack of diversity in "professional" gaming is a very real thing.

VipaGTS 05/10/20 1:08:39 PM #27:	These Tournaments don't have unlimited spots. Generally men sign up at far greater numbers thus skewing the numbers in favor of men and causing fewer women to sign up. This increases the number of participants and allows women a better shot at making it. I'm sure they'll one day do a combo Tourney based on the top from each. Look at how many nerds drool over females on twitch. This will just attract more of those losers watching the streams t catch a glimpse of a woman Campcom is just making a smart business decision. --- "I devour urine just like my Portland Trailblazers, with piss poor defense." <cite>VipaGTS posted [p:938930293] in BREAKING: ...

They shouldn't separate the female gamers. Instead they should penalize the people who are bringing the negativity.

Evening_Dragon 05/10/20 2:40:45 PM #44:	Wii_Shaker posted... The lack of diversity in "professional" gaming is a very real thing. I think Capcom figures by closing the gender gap they open up competitive gaming to a very marginalized demographic. Personally I think gamer culture is very toxic and it's nice to see a game publisher actually shining some light on this. Idunno about other genres, but there's no lack of diversity in fighting games. We have the whole damn rainbow, by race and gender. That being said, that's mostly the regular FGC faces; plenty of nobodies can be major creeps. --- "A guy talking into the camera about politics?

Tyranthraxus 05/10/20 2:59:51 PM #45:	toyota posted... I dont see why it is necessary as playing fighting games isnt some sort of competition where physicality/athleticism is a factor. They also do this for chess. The short answer is there's far more male players than female players so sheer probability means the women basically never get to compete in late stage tournaments. Only one woman has managed to make it into the final rounds of chess league so the women's chess league exists to give the female players more time in the spotlight. --- It says right here in Matthew 16:4 "Jesus doth not need a giant Mecha." https://imgur.com/dQgC4kv <cite>Tyranthraxus posted [p:938935143] in BREAKING: ...

They shouldn't separate the female gamers. Instead they should penalize the people who are bringing the negativity. I'm guessing the reason they don't do the latter is due to fear of losing fans and possibly some popular players. They do, but that has proven not to work that well. The smash fanbase alone you would have to ban near half the players. --- I once boxed my ferret and lost San Antonio Spurs ForeverFan <cite>TonyRodney posted [p:938935321] in BREAKING: ...
