When a group of boys from Guadiano's middle school became angry when she did not follow their directions on Call of Duty, a combat game, one of them uttered words that have become cemented in her mind ever since. "Cut it out, she'sjust a girl," one of the mends in terjected. "She doesn'tknow anything." She has diagnosed this malice as a byproduct of social confinements, with societydemanding men to concealtheir emotions and maintain roles of author ity, embraced as characteristics that they should em body. Sociery and gaming, Guadiano posits, are in terchangeable. "How can you be a provider or a bread winrier when a girl is bearingyou at this, thisand this,"Gua diano said. "But your baseline of success should not be based on your perception of women and their comparisonto you." When Guadiano articulates her fixation on video games with other women, it is derided, by some, as oddand socially unacceptable. The reactions among men tend to bemore mixed. Some say they find it "cool" that she has a pen chant for gameslike Mario Kart or Zelda, but others infer that, as a woman, she must not be very skilled at the craft. "Whenever I am playing online, depending on who I am playing with, I kind of feel like I have to prove myself because I'm a girl;' Guadiano said. Analyz.ingthe manner in which sexismmanifests, Guadiano maintainsthat the overarching themes of . sexism, be it sexual harassment or condescending statements, are more problematic in society than in gaming itself If women were to, say, speak up about a supervi sor'sinapprop riate remarks, there could, in fact, bere percussions to taking action, sometimes losing their jobs for simply informing a Human Resources de partment on the matter.
