I’m a PVE progression focused female raider. I don’t spend a whole lot of time taking about gender though.

Lathere and I both blog and are serious about raiding (we’re stuck on LK heroic 25 man atm though).

That said, I don’t think we write very much about gender in WoW. Only because my gender and how people treat me based on my looks/gender whatever isn’t something that I dwell on. And therefore, isn’t something that I blog about much.

Although I think Lath said it all here:

Awesome! I’m sure there are a lot more women who are into high performance raiding, but that I’m just not familiar with. I do follow a lot of blogs, but outside of pally blogs, I don’t really pay attention unless a topic catches my interest.

There was a priest blogger some time back named Bati who has a really impressive raiding resume, but I can’t remember the name of her blog to save my life. I don’t think she’s still updating either.

There’s so much to say about this…that I really don’t want to say anything.

But I will say I’m a fairly progressed female blogger (11/12 ICC 25 HM) if not the creme de la creme of progression… Offhand, I also noticed you missed Beruthiel of Falling Leaves and Wings (http://fallingleavesandwings.wordpress.com/) who is an excellent tree and raid lead. I know there are more though! I’m going to try to walk through my blog one by one to identify them.

[...] lot of people have been blogging lately about sort of feminist topics. In particular, Ophelie’s post caught my attention. Not only did she link me (thanks!) but she linked me under [...]

I’d really like to enlist here, or rather I’d feel honored to. you can find my own thoughts on the matter in my most recent post here http://raging-monkeys.blogspot.com/2010/08/so-whats-conclusion.html

to shatter some more of the frequent typing, I’ve been co-GM, raidleader and in WoW and I also luv to pvp!

Well, they do say the brain is the sexiest organ and Matticus does demonstrate that he has quite a large, pink one at times.

Brains. BRAINS, you perverts!

[...] Ophelie listed me as a “hardcore female player” on her blog, amongst a list of feminist posts and other strong women. To be perfectly honest, I feel a bit uneasy about it. Not because of the whole “hardcore vs casual” shindig, but because I do things that other feminist bloggers would probably not approve of. For example, to address one of the things she talks about in that post, I do not talk on PuG vents. Allow me to tell you a story. [...]
