I wanna talk. I love playing Call Of Duty. Without it, I wouldn’t have met my husband or my best friends.. but the CoD pubchats are toxxxxxxic AF, especially if you’re female. The amount of times I’ve been called a bitch/whore/slut, told to get back in the kitchen (1/?),

called fat/ugly, had some kind of homophobic/sexist/transphobic slur thrown my way, have a dude tell me his going to “pimp me out”.. like, I could go on. This is the reason people don’t play in pubchat and only play in parties. (2/?)

It’s crazy to me when people are like “omgz, the gaming community is like, SO WELCOMING!!” LOL NO THE FUCK IT AIN’T. We should be better than this. So so much better. But we aren’t. And we won’t be. I just wanna play video games, make friends, and bull shit. (3/?)

I have my Twitch/IG/Mixer info in my Xbox bio, and what sucks is I’m waiting for the time I have some mad bro who’s called me a fat slut whore on CoD find that info in my bio and blow up my socials with this toxic shit. (4/?)

I will say, over the last couple of years, there have been dudes who step up and step in when this shit happens. And that’s appreciated. When I got into CoD back in 2011, that NEVVVVER happened. So I guess that’s good? (5/?)

I don’t know what the point of this thread is. Maybe just to vent? But dudes, throwing out sexist/transphobic insults on Call Of Duty ain’t the ticket. It makes you look insecure and sad. I’m sorry your intelligence level is that of a turkey. Be better. It’s not that hard. (end)
