I had a discussion with a female friend just yesterday who is looking for a xbox gamertag, I told her to choose something short, simple but more than that one that didn't give away she was female.
Online gaming is still full of macho BS especially around titles such as COD, there are some guys out there who will hunt you down just because your female especially if (god help you) that you might actually kill them. I play COD, Gears, etc with a female friend from time to time and she's pretty awesome but I get to hear the kind of abuse she gets from guys, something that I never get such as being called a whore, that they're going to **** her, etc, it's incredible.
