Is every single leader in this game a female?
leader of the raiders, female. leader of the BoS, female. Overseer, female. I met a couple random raider groups as well questing all were led by you guessed it, woman...what a SHOCKER....imagine if it were the other way around...every single gaming "yourno" and youtuber would be caling out the "bigotry" & "misogyny" at Bethesda. Learn to accept criticism without becoming defensive. Can you do that? Do you think you can do that ? Just this once?

You know that big thing that happened in our world? You, know WWII?

Well, during WWII men of fighting age were sent off to fight. This left women behind to fill the roles vacated.

Fallout had this big war too, and as the world hadn't progressed much past the mid-century norm the same thing would have happened. Men of fighting age sent to Alaska and elsewhere leaving women in the USA to fill the vacancies.

Having more women in leadership roles is historically accurate.

pretty much. but with the botherhood Spoilers : at the end of the reign of steel quest line you could decide to kill Rahmani and have Shin be the leader if you side with him with killing the scientists so you overall can changed that one

But anyways to me it doesn't matter, gender shouldn't play any part into who should or shouldn't be a leader even in the real world, this shouldn't be a concern. Oh another thing in fallout 4 it was mainly males being the ones in charge so i guess the Bethesda team wanted to give females a chance to be in the spotlight this time.

It wouldnt be such a problem but the hypocaracy is out of this world when it comes to equality in games nowdays...if this was all men they would be crying about "Muh GamerGate" and not enough representation and other nonsenseical b.s. YOU KNOW ITS TRUE.

Leader of the settlers is a man. And well, does it matter?

They get paid less than the men leaders if that helps you at all.

Well in the real world, men take jobs women won't. They work longer hours under more dangerous circumstances.

So yes, women earn less than men in general. They also pick easier jobs and take more time off.

Go figure!

What are you saying that the original study that classified 26 hours a week as full time. Then took the total of all "full time" workers by gender added it up and divided by that number. While in that study men worked on average of 38.5 to women's average 29.5 hours itself debunks the myth?

Or that men at 38.5 are also working the lions share of overtime and double time, which they counted as straight time worked, ignoring the inflated wages

What Mooman said. It really ties in to the lore, timing, and general Fallout 50's feel. The later games it makes sense there would be more male leadership, but the only particularly militant men old enough to have survived the bombs would be the BoS founders and similarly already spoken for characters: the male leadership left at the home front is gonna be dudes like David or your settler foreman. So this post is not only inaccurate it also shows a good deal of the OP's personal issues with females particularly of authority.

I do hope the handle is not short for "gentleman" as this would also be vastly inaccurate.
