So first it was one woman talking about her harassment to being a girl gamer, then Faith over at Destructoid did her opinion in regards to that one about how women should ignore it, and now we've got the first male opinion on the matter and well...chances are you'll probably be pissed after reading what he has to say. From the article:

Gah, Im a guy and even I
Gah, Im a guy and even I found that irritating. Its a similiar sensation to that sulphur pit burning in the back of my mind when its always the males (however true it may be) always being the jackasses. Its like I somehow lose something because Im the same gender as the ones who spoil it for others, specifically the women playing games.
Its the whole "women games do this" "women gamers do that" in that article which got on my nerves (despite the "I realise this does not apply to all women" which I think made the whole argument fall apart). Maybe I made a connection between labeling female gamers as fakes (because I think thats what he was saying in a sense) and the feeling that some label male gamers as immature, intolerant morons (or at least dont concentrate on those who arent).
The whole thing has about as much weight as something like "The reason why female gamers are too smart to play alongside stupid males".
