I am so grateful that a Pro Player decided to speak up about this!! I don't know how many times I've been looked down on for being a woman. Guys who play against me assume an "auto-win" because I am wearing pearls and a cardigan. I even had a Store Manager LOOK DOWN MY SHIRT! There were no chairs at this shop so every time I played a card I was bending over. I realized what he was doing when he complimented me on my necklace. I was so disgusted. And it wasn't like I had come to play Magic by myself. MY BOYFRIEND WAS THERE. I'm not playing Magic to be your eye candy either.
I hope TONS of people read this article and realize that some of the things they do (even unintentionally) are impacting female Magic players.
