After 17 pages it's still laughable that y'all have taken unconfirmed pre-order numbers to mean "gamers hate women".
Before anyone cites EA's response as some sort of mortal offense to the gaming community;
1) It was explicitly referring to people that would have a problem with women
2) It just called them uneducated, which is barely an insult and more of a statement: there were women in WWII (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women_in_World_War_II)
So for this many people to be offended by EA, it'll still mean they think they were talking to them; ergo that they have a problem with women.
