Girl's Treatment in Valorant Question

Discussion

Quick rant because I want to know if I am going crazy or if this is truly a girls experience. For the record, I understand that girls in this game are unfairly given a hard time or treated badly by others players (I've just never experienced it personally please don't think I'm dense or something)

But this past week my GF has asked me to log into her account to check her daily store for the Evori Dreamwings Ghost and complete her daily checkpoints which I've obliged.

Now whenever I play on her account I've noticed a noticeable uptick in random messages/friend requests, teammates telling me I'm terrible in the comms, shooting in my face during the buy phase after I make a mistake or teammates purposely throwing when I'm trying to help. I even had a teammate who I healed go and stop playing to teabag my dead body and get themselves killed by the other team.

The only reason I'm posting this is because her account is a slightly more "Girly" account than mine (Evori Dreamwings Vandal/Spectre, cutesty sprays and the fact that I've been playing KJ/Viper since she always get to when we play together), so I'm just like are people doing this because they think I'm a girl and want to troll me, or am I just going crazy? It's happened enough that I am noticing now.

Also, for what it's worth this has been in Swift Play lobbies because that's what we always play anyway, but I still notice it much more when I switch onto her account than when I'm on mine.
