Smash Bros wont get girls, they don't like fighting much

WTF?! Why is there so much bigotry on this site? I don't know whether sexism is acceptable in the US but it isn't in the UK. Would you put "Smash Bros wont get gays, they don't like fighting much" or Smash Bros wont get Asians, they don't like fighting much"? I certainly hope you wouldn't so don't generalise about women either. We are all individuals and lumping us all together just because of the shape of our genitals is bigoted and insulting. FYI fighters are my favourite genre but my fiance hates them. Less of the generalisations please!

It's called a stereotype. It's not true for all women, but hell, the stereotype has to come from somewhere.

And I'm telling you, out of the dozens of females I would call close friends, I only know a few that enjoy what we call "hardcore" games, and I do know dozens that love Mario Kart...and some play it religiously.

What am I supposed to do about that fact? I'm not a sexist, I simply don't know many female gamers, that is not my fault, that's videogame's stereotypes keeping too many women from picking up a controller. I wish my female friends would join us in Smash Bros. and have some fun, but they never do, they sit there and watch, bored.  With the exception of a few, like I said.
