Was it the FIFA game that they added women teams but 2% even tried them?

A friend had this argument with me recently, I told her that men and women like different things, it was about shooters, and she told me is because girls are being told not to play. I asked her who told her she can't play? So she called me hysteric. Shortly after her husband made fun of religion and conservatives, although unrelated to gaming.

Fun times, we are still good friends though, for now anyway.

If they added a bikini mode and a breast slider + face improvement slider, the female teams would probably be vastly more popular.

Make them wear beach volleyball attire and make the tits bounce.

No flat dykes allowed.

Up until fairly recently entertainment companies understood that men and women generally have different interests. Yes you’ll find some crossover but the rule applies. Manga seems to understand this

The problem is that it made it so that I see a lot of smart people just copy leftist talking points about women in X and how they are a victim without realizing that no one ever told them not to do X or that X already had a lot of well written women. This one was particularly infuriating because she plays videogames for a long time, she started wow back in burning crusade I think and we played wow, diablo, lol together. Not only no one told her to go back to the kitchen but everyone was treating her nicely, including farming for her in wow. But that does not stop her for saying that "women are not welcomed in gaming" crap.

As a life long gamer and comic book guy I always saw women who were interested in the hobbies, but not in the same numbers as men. I’ve always been a nerdy black guy and have loved sci-fi and fantasy since childhood. Not many blacks are into that stuff but nobody ever stopped me from reading Tolkien, Heinlein, Asimov, etc. I enjoy an occasional romance novel which is very female dominated. Nobody stops me from reading those.

They just refuse to accept who generally buys things or is into a hobby

Just as long as you watch out for Clarke. Because he's definitely on the naughty list. And by that I mean he pays to rape little boys.

There are a couple of his books that have very... disturbing... scenes about older guy/younger guy romantic relationships.

The last few years have caused me to re-evaluate what I consider to be intelligence. People who mindlessly and arrogantly went along with every bullshit government and media narrative, from George Floyd to covid to Ukraine, are no longer what I would consider intelligent. I’ve moved most of them into the category of “competent” with some of them being “hyper competent” (a label I reserve for the type of person who can perform brain surgery but cannot recognize simple patterns in media).

They’ve applied Disparate Impact Theory (aka the new communism) to gaming as well.

Step 1: identity a disparity - in this case, the fact that way more men than women play video games

Step 2: systematically ignore any explanations that do not uphold leftist doctrine - in this case, the idea that men and women are inherently different and thus have different interests

Step 3: arrive at your desired conclusion through a process of arbitrary elimination - in this case, leftists systematically reject every premise except discrimination, so discrimination must be the culprit

They pull this shit with literally everything now. No need to refute evidence for inherent differences in aptitude, temperament, behavior, etc. based on demographics. Leftists just point to a disparate outcome, pretend to investigate the cause, and literally always arrive at the same (predetermined) conclusion: it’s racism, sexism, homophobia, etc.

She technically is right. Women are being told not to play by other women and the mongoloid left. You think telling women that gaming is full of misogynists, rapists, and future school shooters will encourage them to get into games?

There is a massive persecution complex among lefties generally, but women especially love the “they tell us X” nonsense. I just graduated from a law school that is 60 percent women, and which like all of academia these days is in a constant race to the bottom to cater fully to every new and continuing SJW demand, and yet the minority girls from my 1L section still did a big viral photo shoot of themselves in suits, preening around in various parts of the school, that they posted all around social media with the tagline “we’re women of color, doing all the things they told us we couldn’t do.” And that was two whole years ago, long before we all actually graduated.

Bar exam is in two weeks though, hope they pass LOL, because the only prople that can actually “tell you you can’t” be a lawyer are the bar examiners!

You can actually check the take up on the womens teams by looking at the Achievement % accomplishments. And it was like 1.3% last time I looked

It's gone up a bit since I last looked around Christmas. I asked Bing AI to calculate current Womens Usage - According to the web search results, there are 39 achievements in FIFA 23, worth a total of 1,000 Gamerscore. You can view the full list of FIFA 23 achievements here ²³.

The 'Girl Power' and 'Football is Everything' achievements are two of the achievements that you can unlock in FIFA 23 by using the women's teams. The web search results do not provide any statistics on how many FIFA 23 owners have completed these two achievements, but I can try to estimate based on some assumptions and calculations.

First, let's assume that the number of FIFA 23 owners is roughly equal to the number of players who have played the game at least once. According to TrueAchievements, there are 85,129 players who have played FIFA 23 on Xbox Series X|S, and 58,250 players who have played FIFA 23 on Xbox One. That gives us a total of 143,379 players on Xbox platforms. I could not find any reliable data on how many players have played FIFA 23 on other platforms, such as PlayStation or PC, so I will use the Xbox data as a proxy.

Second, let's assume that the percentage of players who have completed these two achievements is roughly equal to the percentage of players who have unlocked them on TrueAchievements. According to TrueAchievements, there are 2,281 players who have unlocked the 'Girl Power' achievement on Xbox Series X|S, and 1,980 players who have unlocked it on Xbox One. That gives us a total of 4,261 players who have unlocked the 'Girl Power' achievement on Xbox platforms. Similarly, there are 2,282 players who have unlocked the 'Football is Everything' achievement on Xbox Series X|S, and 1,981 players who have unlocked it on Xbox One. That gives us a total of 4,263 players who have unlocked the 'Football is Everything' achievement on Xbox platforms.

Third, let's calculate the percentage of players who have completed these two achievements based on the previous assumptions. The percentage of players who have completed the 'Girl Power' achievement is approximately 4,261 / 143,379 * 100% = 2.97%. The percentage of players who have completed the 'Football is Everything' achievement is approximately 4,263 / 143,379 * 100% = 2.97%.

Therefore, based on these estimates, we can say that about 3% of FIFA 23 owners have completed these two achievements by using the women's teams. However, please note that these estimates are based on many assumptions and might not be very accurate or representative of the actual numbers. They are only meant to give you a rough idea and should not be taken as definitive facts.

I hope this helps you understand how popular these two achievements are among FIFA 23 owners. If you have any other questions, please feel free to ask me. Thank you for using Bing! 😊

Yeah, the ratings are equal to their male equivalents in skill.

And that equivalent skill level is somewhere in the range of the average highschool boys team.

That's because they aren't paid enough. Everyone knows sports like NFL, NHL, and soccer across the world, only became popular because of investors paying the players 10 million dollars a year. It's so evil that we won't just give them basic income, we're strangling this sport.

For a mostly uninterested-in-sports relative of mine, the giveaway was the goalkeeping. He said if all the outfield players are proportionally slower and weaker than their male counterparts, he could kinda be fooled into thinking he was watching a similar game, but some of the goalies can barely cover a quarter of the goal.

If I wanna watch shit football, I could always watch my local league which could probably run rings around the women.

Nobody really wants to watch women's soccer if it's hateful lesbians playing a sport badly. Women's soccer only took off in the US because the women's team everybody remembers was really good (for a women's soccer team) and had several hot players.

I think it mostly took off because it was the 90's and the media pushed it hard.

Quite obviously they need to spice the game up with more men identifying as women playing.
