heres the article and heres why youre wrong and fucked
https://news.stanford.edu/news/2008/february6/med-video-020608.html
a.bob is not a guy, ur transphobic L. there are studies that show trans ppl have similar brain structures to cis ppl of their gender u can google if u rly want
b. this study has 22 its neither qualitative as it wasnt in depth nor quantitative because 22 people
c. moreover this article doesnt even say men are better than women, it simply says men are more likely to get very invested in video games (again 22 people nothing definitive not even close)
d.NA gc scene was already rly weak, bob has played like 4 games and mostly against low t-2 and t3 teams, ARIANA GRANDE PERFUME was one of those teams, dont be surprised if bob doesnt go 22-1 against SR, other c9 players have dominated too, 4 games is too low of a sample size
e.cry is free
to add to what you've said - video games have historically been conditioned to be a "boy's activity" which has discouraged everyone else to participate. Its a classic case of society deciding activities one should partake in depending on their gender assignment - which is also why the study is biased even if it has a small sample size of 22. Professional esports is hopefully changing that, and given there is no physical attributes like weight involved in esports, I think women (cis or tran) can even outdo men (cis or tran).
I promise bro am not hating or anything but the stats are just absurd. he said this and u replied with "ur transphobic L" "cry is free"
saying anything about lgbtq = hating & transphobe?
not generalizing but u guys are horrible, cmon we aren't trying to cancel u guys or anything, hes just asking a question
A)I mean the take on trans women competing in women's physical sport is pretty evident that there's clear advantages that they have against the cis women, from genetic to cultural reasons like competing in Mens sport for many years which is usually a completely different type of sport so coming from that into a womens league you're able to take what you've learned an apply it. Having bigger organs and bone structure and density yada yada yaa
But when it comes to Esports the clear advantage would be playing video games since u were a young boy that you usally wouldnt be doing as a young girl but i dont even think that take is valid, (unrelated to BoB i know nothing , just a hypothetical)my only opinion on this specific matter is protecting the womens league like it should be done in physical sports as they were created as a safe space. idk who's decision it should be to safeguard that but it wouldnt surpise me that later down the road ppl would deceive ppl of their gender identity to make an online career out of it and accumulate as much prize winnings and financial gain. When ppl are that hungry for money and all u have to do is sign up online, live a double life and lie to 4 ppl and come 1st in a tournament it wouldnt be so far fetched as the prize pools grow and more tournaments happen that are lesser known.
B) A lot of women that compete in womens sports are scared to speak out about not feeling comfortable with the fairness of competition because they're scared of public judgement like you literally showed, gaming has been right leaning for the past decade and only the last 6ish years its started to turn theat corner. So why act like a complete asshole on a forum site where the user was literally asking for opinions. then sent an article ,whether it was right or wrong, made a disclaimer that they werent tryna offend anyone? you handled that shit so poorly, you could have just been polite about it, trans issues are complicated even to ppl in that community, how tf u gonna advocate for trans rights when ur clearly acting out of malice. No wonder why the trans community attacks everyone even other trans ppl, shits so sad.
C) when did he refer to BoB as a guy? they literally used female pronouns? Again Trans issues are complicated asf you have to understand that not everyone has exactly the same opinion as you and others, So if you meant referring to them as a guy by asking if they had an unfair advantage that they would attain from being born a biological male, for a lot of ppl to understand trans topics it helps them a ton to use and not forget about the biological origins of that person in a non-offensive way because its most likely the first time they've had to start to do that in their life and arent used to it, the user was clearly doing that and wasnt trying to offend anyone at all. He clearly agrees that BoB is a women cus he used her pronouns gtfo urself.
Drisp if u see this if u wna know more about trans issues try and find someone in ur life and ask them about it, I find having a human connection with someone and having heartfelt conversations about complicated stuff like that to be really beneficial, just be mindful of what u ask incase of triggers etc
My gf spent a lot of time talking to me about it and sometimes it was painful for them but it was well worth it! :)
I mean are you forgetting that Bob was actually pretty decent on Soniqs and EXO-Clan before C9W? Now they're around a better team that plays well with the way they play, and a different coaching staff. Sometimes to bring out someones FULL potential a different coaching staff can do wonders. C9W as a team has been dominate for awhile now, they all seem suuper close knit and understanding of how eachother plays.
The only non-cultural reason that I might consider for men being better than women on average would be if it was discovered that something like hand size was positively correlated with being better at Valorant, but that seems unlikely (the one study I could find seemed to imply that small hands are better for speed while large hands are better for stamina). All of the psychological arguments have always been super weak.
As for Bob, she has probably had more experience playing against top NA teams like SEN, LG, V1, etc. than any other player in GC so that seems like a more likely explanation than any biological argument.
Bob has been trans a long time before she even arrived in the states with exo clan, she falls under the umbrella of people that Game changers represents. you cant say its unfair because there are no physical advantages of being a man when playing valorant. The only reason she is performing so high is because of her previous experiences playing against top teams in NA which has made her better at the game.
Bob is not the only trans female in GC, yet she's putting up numbers like no other. She was also amazing on soniqs and has only improved since then. Stop finding reasons to be transphobic. Her and all the trans or cis female players performing in GC are amazing and have a good future if they keep improving, appreciate them instead of hating on someone for their identity
Of course. why would you want males in a competitive female environment? the team with more males in GC will keep winning if they keep allowing it. There's no two ways about it. Also, as my initial post referenced, I dont care much since the females themselves allow the males into these competitions. I'm just watching this with a cuppa coffee in my hand.
its not a female league , it’s for non male identifying people, so with those rules in place people like Bob are fair to participate.
But imo the distribution of cracked successful non-cis players to cis in this league is pretty high which makes me question the idea that performance in competitive esports is genderless.
I’d prefer the same divisions as normal sports but i guess there’s not the player base or demand for it
