For clarification, boys and men are very welcome at this event; we are hoping for some alternative cheerleading...

"This club discriminates against males and as such it is in violation of the UK Sex Discrimination Act of 1975 and several EU council directives on the matter. "
"If I were from the UK I'd file a complaint against this club and demand an injunction against their lawless behavior."

Yes I hear they're banning female/male only toilets in some parts of Orwellian Europe.

No "alex" you are not a guy!!!!!!!

Er, how come Blizzcon is sad and this isn't?

Comped at one and not the other, were we?

They're just going to be playing the Sims all day aren't they?... this will destroy conventional gaming in a way that could never have been predicted, just as the Wii destroyed consoles

"That's Girl Gamers Tournament for the minority who still can't decipher text message language" ...

Nah, it's "Girl Gamer's Tournament" for those of us who can still afford to buy a vowel...

I think they should pay a fine of stripping down and letting all the guys who weren't allowed in to see them naked! Hahahaha.

Really I don't care as long as we men can have our men only clubs and they don't say that's sexist.

...and I further proclaim "Men's rooms" and "Ladie's rooms" to be sexist installations. Women should be allowed to join men in whizzing at urinals, and men should join women in side-by-side stalls.



...Yeah. Hah-hah. Really funny, like the rest of the lame jokes above.

Not sexist, If it were male only feminists everywhere would pounce on it and would have thier knickers in a twist.

I have no problem tho, as long as there is a huuuge pillow fight.......and its on youtube.


Indeed this is quite pathetic. If I were to organise a male only event of any kind (no..not THAT kind :-/) then there would be some serious trouble and dont you know it!

yet they are allowed to get away with it. 

Somone sould make a white's only gaming event, or perhaps a Muslim's only event. you may think that sounds rediculus but thats exactly what this is.

Don't you get it? Girl gamers are a very small group right now. Giving them a chance to grow and prosper means more girl gamers to in the dating pool. As guys, we should recognize girl gamers as a precious resource.

Think of this like a wildlife preserve. Let the flock grow and prosper and we will all be the better.

Just check out the UK police "equal opportunity events".

Everyone invited except the white male. All in the name of equality though. The very fact the police have race, and "sex" (pardon the pun), targets alone is discriminate.


Did anyone else realize that making the club 'no boys allowed' is sexist? I figured no one else picked up on that, so I figured I'd post it here to clue you all in.

Lest you forget men for hundreds of years have owned exclusive rights to many, many events, clubs, businesses etc. So when there’s anything that has 'girls only' written on it the masses of whiney sausage clubs out there have the audacity to cry foul.

You guys are really pathetic and just so there’s no confusion, yes I am a guy.

Sheesh, you guys need help. 

It's a contest to promote more women getting educated at the specific university. And the author is correct, it's no more "sexist" than a contest for "best male singer in London". Being a gender-specific way of encouraging more women to get educated hardly qualifies as sexism. Sexism is discrimination based on the belief that the other gender is inferior--this isn't even approaching that level. 

As for the "hypocrisy of feminists", I doubt the movement is burning Man. U or Chelsea flags because they have no female players on their men's teams. Sheesh, seriously, grow a set guys. .

And why would you name a girls-only tournament "Grl Gmr" .. Are all girls stupid, air-headed idiots who do not know how to spell girl gamers??

It would be interesting to see what kind of reaction a males-only meeting would get.

"A Grrlz ONLY games gathering is not sexist???? "

It's like saying the MoBo's arent racist.

how is this not sexist? they should be at home playing with barbie

No boys allowed and it can in no way be called sexist? The hypocrisy of feminists will never cease to amaze me...

gaming my ass, it's a lesbian club
*we are not racist but boys are not allowed*?>.>

A Grrlz ONLY games gathering is not sexist???? 
*frowns and wonders*
