[QUOTE="heimdall, post: 1617135, member: 12421"] If their behavior doesn't improve, find another group. You don't need that kind of abuse. I have a female gamer in my D&D game. She plays a female high-elven fighter. That's where the stereotype ends. In the game the other players refer to her as "boss," "chief," and other titles of respect. Why? Because of all the characters, she is the damage dealing monster wielding a keen adamantine greatsword and has earned her spot as the party leader. When she levels that stare of hers, the other characters jump to her orders. And this is a very disfunctional party (in character, not out) who rarely agrees on anything. As you can tell by my description, in character she receives the same respect as a male half-orc barbarian would. As a player she is treated the same as any other by everyone in the group. If the way you're being treated is affecting your enjoyment level (and based on what you've described it would bother me as well), it's time to find a new game if they aren't willing to shape up in a hurry.
