Enclave prefers females?

Thinking the same thing. I'm playing FOT at the moment ... have you noticed that Paladin Solo in FOT is written as female as well? When I went to talk to her on the bunker, she has a male voice.

:rofl:

Heard that, PS? :wink:

However I must agree with...

Hehehe maybe that was a reference to this brilliant Polish movie called "Seksmisja"? But yeah, that pisses me off cause I'm an MCP.

Silencer- pozdrowienia :)
 
Widze ciemność, ćiemność widze! ;)

Explanation for those who didn't see the flick.


If you're Polish, claim that you love post-apoc settings and *still*, you haven't seen that movie, I'll kick your balls.

(SPOILERS)

The flick is a post-apoc comedy,about two guys, frozen in an ultra-tech experiment to test the effects of cryogenic "death" on the human body. The experiment goes wrong (obviously) and instead of being frozen for 2 years, our heroes end up being awoken 60 years later, in a world populated only by women, living in underground vaults and subterranean complexes, after a massive global war that eliminated all the male population.

Hence the reference above.

If you want more, watch the movie, I'm no storytelling Hakunin.
 
Kobieta mnie bijeeeeee....

If you love women before all :)

Yep, this movie is classics. It is more than 20 years old and the public TV emitted it about 5 times last 3 years. I wonder if there are good translations?
 
Oh God, I seem to have initiated a Polish Fallout community talk here :) OK, let's wait for Celestial, Kaczor, SickBastard and others not only from VDHP... ;)

Pozdrowienia rodakom! :)

I never noticed it before, but now that i look, (Playing FO2 again!) Your actually right. The drill sargent is female also? Surprising seen as though she seems so so so.....well, big marcho guy in steal power armour! Taken orders from the drill sargent suddenly doesnt seem that bad!
but doesnt the drill seargent have a deep voice? if thats her? real voice then it seems pretty bad.

Yeah, I noticed that too. Really weird, especially during the St. Louis mission, Solo is referred to as a "her" by the General. I think it's a conspiracy to mess the minds of Fallout players. :shock:

No conspiracy, just Australian efficiency and attention to detail (or lack of).

I think it is all just a mistake because some of the cheat mod programs I saw my friend using mixed up all the race types, so that sex was usually incorrect and I had more fire geckos that looked like enclave patrolmen that females.

Still, I have no knowledge of programming and it might have been deliberate.
 
So all it took for the military to finnaly become sexually equal was abit of armagedon? :P As for the Enclave in FO2 i also found the ratio of women to be abit wierd. I wrote it of as a "bug" though. APA would to an extent explain the ratio of women but if the Enclave wants to create a new stronger society(that's atleast what i thought they were up to) then keeping the men would be a better choice seens we're stronger, smarter and as an English research department proved acouple of months ago also smarter by and avarage of +30 IQ over the avarage female. Still a world w/o women would be pretty boring......

I find this extremely difficult to believe.

I agree.

I actually wrote a post yesterday saying this exact same thing, but it must've gotten eaten in a board fart.
 
You know, that'd indeed be pretty damned amazing, considering the fact that everyone always says that women are smarter on average. (only slightly, though).

Enclave females: Maybe the game designers decided to use "she" in a genderless way. Ie. you can't see what the person's gender is anyway, so they could've used the word "she". I've seen it happen in several books as well.
 
It was in a Swedish science magasine called "Illustrated Science"(translated). They only part of the female brain that's better then the male one is memory. Men learn alot faster and "pick things up" at a higher pace but then forgets them much faster aswell, they're also better with language by default. Over all we're generaly considered equally inteligent though. Mens brains are generaly better at "physcial" things like figuring out how to put object A and B together to make something better while the female one are more tuned into undestanding psychological dilemmas. However if you give an group of men a standard IQ test and then do the same with a group of women the male scores will be higher 97% of the time(this is how they did the "research")
 
In which issue (month/year) did they write that article about male/female IQ? Was it fairly recent? I'm from Norway, but I believe that I'm subscribing to the same "Illustrated Science", but obviously norwegian version.
 
hrmm well it was in one of the newer ones. However we didnt get it for the first couple of months this year so i'd bet on one of the last issues of '03. Gonna dig through my pile of magasines and see if i can find it.
 
KK Raven, here's what I've found from a quick Google of it:
From a study in the IQ's of children (seems to indicate that Girls are smarter, but that could just be in children)
Boys

Girls
gdist2.gif


From "Sex Roles: A Journal of Research, Jan, 1998,":
Lynn and Mulhern's (1991) study demonstrated that males (of various ages) do actually have overall higher IQs than females, though they show a greater variability in scores. The differences are, however, very small: less than 2 IQ points (males = 101.16; females = 99.38), but these results do seem to indicate males score more highly on intelligence tests than females.

From STRAIGHT TALK by A. Jensen
While both sexes have average scores of 100, the men's scores include more extreme cases. Men are overrepresented among the super smart--above IQ 140 there appear to be at least 20% more men than women.

From THE INTELLIGENCE CONTROVERSY by Eysnck
There are 37% more men at IQ levels above 132.

From A Question of Intelligence, Daniel Seligman, 1992.
20% more men than women score above IQ 140 and below IQ 60.

Mostly seem to be saying that the averages are about the same, but men differ more.
Conlusion:
A) You are lying
B) You are mistaken
C) Illustrated Science are lying
D) Illustrated Science are mistaken
E) The survey is flawed

Unless anyone can find other eevidence or debunk my (not well researched at all) evidence, this should end the derail of this thread.

Has anyone brought this up before? Almost all enclave soldiers in power armor are female. Damn, even the drill sargent who seems to have a male voice is actually a female. There are soo few male power armor solders that it gets dumb. Was the female model quicker to access or what?

I was shocked when i went int the military base and a dead guy in power armor who was like blow in half said this when i examined "she looks dead

that kinda shocked me
