In almost every culture, men just do not want to beat by a woman, especially in an area in which they have "dominated", whether it is video games, jobs (or education environment) in which men are the majority, or anything dealing with physical or athletic prowess. As you can see from the paper, as long as men do not know the opponent is a women, they "behave". And if women conceal their identity, they they do well and are more likely to continue playing. These are things you can do in a video game. It is hard to hide your gender when you are not hiding behind the internet, which is the real problem. In short, men need to change. Unfortunately, this change is not going to happen anytime soon.
