I was just trying to play some pokemon online, but my female icon was apparently enough of a sign for this guy

Context:
I have a female icon on pokemon showdown. Apparently that's enough of a sign from this guy. I don't speak spanish very well but google translate tells me this dude is asking me to be my girlfriend, so I told him I was a dude to make him go away. I guess it worked.

I second this
Honestly, female name and profile pic and you can convince 90% of people your a chick
Yeah I had a few female characters on WoW just because the same burly dude gets boring, and I got so much free shit from weirdos asking for Skype.
This is why for most gamers everyone is assumed a man unless you're actually friends with them or its otherwise proven (not that they need to prove anything yada yada yada blah blah blah)
Probably just some kid.
BAD HOMBRE BAD!
Trying to get some ass on showdown? Poor guy lmao.
This is why I usually make dudes. No one thinks you're a girl if you're playing as a dude.
I had a female friend I met on that site who told me she never enters the espanol chat room because as soon as she does she gets like 30 PMs from dudes. Apparently it wasn't a problem in the other rooms. Weird.

That's just kinda sad.
Who begs for a girlfriend on a fucking pokemon game?
Someone that wants to stick their Diglett in a Cloyster until they make that Bulbasaur!
Hopefully a lonely kid?
Same kind of person who tries to find a girlfriend over Xbox live.
