Online gamers are sexist
Yes that's right, because a scientific study conducted by Prof Edward Castronova, an economics professor at the California State University, showed that players of the popular MMORPG Everquest tend to project their 'in real life' sexism ... online.
By studying the price that people are prepared to pay to buy high-level or experienced characters from websites such as PlayerAuctions.com, Prof Castronova has found that people spend more on male avatars.
Curiously, female characters sold for less than a male character of equivalent level.
And what's very curious... We've all heard of the slogan "in the United States, everybody is equal" and we all know that it's only a distant dream, but the virtual situation in games seems to be better than the real life situation !Curiously, female characters sold for less than a male character of equivalent level.
a female avatar sells for about $41 less than a male avatar, which is about 12 percent of the mean price of $333," writes Prof Castronova.
He notes that this price discrimination is better than the real world in which women's pay, in the US, is 28% lower than that for men in equivalent jobs.
