CSGO can be pretty toxic but I'm glad I don't have other reference points to compare it to tbh.
I played a game and a girl talked then someone said "is that a girl" then threw up a vote to kick and it passed. This was in ranked.
Yup, that's par for the course for CS. I can think of very few times that I played with a girl/woman that used voice chat in solo queue because they will usually get harassed by at least one person. Same goes for anyone with an accent but less frequent. Things have gotten slightly better over the years at least.
female friend of mine met me in CSGO and CSGO was what prompted her to sell her entire PC setup and quit videogames so I definitely can see that happening.
