i agree that there are a minority of females that do behave in the same manner but you'll probably find that they have suffered abuse at various times and have decided that to be aggressive is the only way to get respect.
Unfortunately as we all know this is not the way to gain it at a poker table,but as to the females being as bad as the males i disagree completely.
When i've seen the sort of rubbish they have to put up with from male players in the chat box, i could give you a hundred examples but none of them suitable for posting here. Yes they can click ignore and turn the volume down and all the other things to stop the abuse but invariably the abuser just changes tables in search of other victims. You don't allow bullying or abuse at school or in the work place so why should it be acceptable around a poker table? After all it's a game for gods sake to be played and enjoyed in the spirit of friendly competition!!
