Chixilog - literal and figurative contexts
In Ragnarok online, there's this category of players we call Chixilogs. Literally, this means that the player driving the female character is a guy in real life. In a negative sense, these chixilogs use feminine wiles to trick their fellow players into doing them some in-game favors. This is a derogatory name that is given to those who are willing to roleplay their girl character to its full potential and swallow their in-game manhood just to get further in the game. This is also a reflection of the way society views women, in general; implying that girls are the needy ones, and guys are the providers. Guys have a certain perception of how a girl should act, look and, in the game pRO, play.
I, on the other hand, interpret the term chixilog in another way. In fact, i get tickled by the thought that players have always thought the player who plays Polgara is a guy. I like it when I get thought of as a chixilog. I'd like to think I get more attention and recognition from players because of the way I play. It sucks to think that they're patronizing me and not treating me as an equal, in-game, just because i'm a girl.
I encourage the misguided thought of RO players that I'm a "Chixilog" just because I have accepted that chauvinistic males who play this game simply cannot digest that someone who can play pRO better than them could actually be a girl in real life.
While I enjoy throwing in the feminine sass once in a while to get my way, I bristle at how some guy players treat my opinions like dirt when they finally get convinced (by me) that i am a real girl. Hence, I'd rather succumb to the tag of chixilog (which i find non-offensive, but rather funny), than have my in-game talks disregarded in favor of "karir" conversations that will waste my time.
As a matter of fact, my personal definition of chixilog is "girls with more balls than guys". Which in some cases, is true. (laughs)

Hi Pol or should I say.... found your blog in Waukeen's site, mangamusta lang, congrats on having a baby, I hope you don't mind me asking, si "Duo Maxwell" ba nakatuluyan mo?
I'm an old pRO chaos player, gave my account to him back in the day and never looked back, surprised to find out you're still active. Give him my regards if you're still in contact with him, and tell him I have more One Piece hehe.
