Boycotting The Beauty Contest At The WSVG


Submitted by thankeeka on June 12, 2006 - 1:12pm. Females in Gaming News

The Frag Dolls' Valkyrie updated her blog with a new entry, and she has quite the rant she needs to vent. It is female videogame groups like the Frag Dolls, PMS Clan, and girlz of destruction that have continued to advance the idea of women as gamers, who can go toe-to-toe with the best players out there, female or not. Well, the World Series of Video Games has decided to hold a Miss World Series of Video Games and not one factor has to do with how they play a videogame. Come read what Valkyrie thinks about the matter.

From the blog entry:

$%##@!#! Is all I have to say, what the heck is this crap? How is a Miss WSVG being crowned based on a beauty contest and has nothing to do with gaming? WOW guys, you let me down on this one severely, and I know I am not going to be the only female gamer to think this. In fact, I suspect I represent the majority on this one. I was bitching with my sister about what the hell this was, and asked her to send an email to the guys since we know them from before and they are great guys (I really do know they are great guys, just don’t understand why they think this is ok except for the fact that they are guys!) Anyway their response was a nicely written correction that it has nothing to do with female gamers and is simply a model hunt and they would never run contests that show female gamers in any other light then professional.

Read the full blog entry over at The Frag Dolls website.
