start a twitch channel.
I can see someone getting entertainment from that.

I never use the mic unless I am with guildies or friends.  Everyone assumes you are a guy and lets you play the damn game.

Love running with a silent PUG, everyone doing their thing and typing if they need to, then a girl joins and says, "Hello" over the mic.  Suddenly, all the guys find their mics as well.

"We'll wait for you," says gallant knight #1.
"Don't wait, I know the way," says girl.
"Sorry for my accent, English is not my first language," says gallant foreign knight.
"Oh, you sound fine," replies girl distractedly.
"You really think so?" foreign knight replies with pride.
Girl does not answer.  Party waits for 5 minutes.
"Don't run ahead, we are waiting for girl," says knight 1 when I wander down the hallway to break some boxes.
"Don't wait for me," she says again.
"Oh, we don't want you to get late penalties," says gallant knight #3. "Haven't we run together before?"
"Maybe," says girl."Really, I'm not worried, about penalites. I'll catch up."
"Have you done part 1?"
"It's Waterworks, I'm not too worried," says girl.
"Oh, you need the entire chain for the end reward, we'll run part 1 again.  Everyone recall."
"No, you don't need to... oh, here you are... well, ok," she says.
They proceed to offer her everything in the chests they loot.
"Do you need a +1 shocking longbow?"
"No."
"I left it for you."
"This is my 8th life," she says.

Before we finish the chain, she drops group and so do I because it's become one big muscle-flexing chatfest and we have to wait at every chest for her to reject the stupid vendor trash they want to pass her.

The only way to win the gender game is not to play. Guys just lose it when there is a girl in the group.

I'm not there to be carried or to loot all the named items.  I'm not there trying to prove "girls rock" and kick your ass.  I just want to play the game like any other player.

The first video is an attempt at comedy. Too bad he didn't realize you can't sound as sarcastic while speaking truth.

Also, ironic that Pope's article in defense if female gamers begins with the man in the relationship logging in to do something for the woman. I'm sure she just didn't have time. (Must have been laundry day!)

Also also,

VEXATION ARE YOU REALLY A GIRL?!  My mind is blown right now.  BLOWN GODDAMMIT.  Now show me your boobs.

I don't know why you make it your mission to take the comedy out of everything.

If she was a real gamer on her 8th life she wouldn't be waiting at chests, neither would you. IT IS WATERWORKS YOU DON'T NEED THEM!

Fucking people and treasure, are you hoping a +5 tome drops from it or something?

Maybe they're still working on those last few crafting levels and don't realize they are doing it wrong. Who should they blame?

Never bet against Epoch.

Does this really happen? I have never had anyone be extra nice or extra nasty because I'm a girl. Maybe it's because I tend to be funny and/or screaming, lost, falling off stuff shouting "WHORES" at the the top of my lungs when I fall in coal chamber AGAIN.
I don't know.

I do use voice, partly because I am lazy and hate typing, and partly because I think it does no harm for the average PUGgle to remember we are out there just getting on with the game. I know several female players that don't use voice to avoid the aggro though.

I don't tee hee hee. I do yell at stupid people though
