Random QM found I was a girl, worst experience in HoTS. Why is this allowed?

I can deal with alot. I know most are just angry at their parents or what not. But, I had the unlucky privilege of having three rays of sunshine, two games in a row.

The first game went badly ending in 7 or 8 minutes I think. I mostly ignored them, with the chides and constant pinging me saying everyone should report me. It was suggested that only a girl could be that bad. And like an idiot I admitted to it and attempted to say gender doesn't have anything to do with it. I'm still learning.

Luckily the game ended quickly, but then I was on the same exact team with the same three for game two. Right from the start, I was recognized, the three started up and got the junk rat whom was not in their team to join in on the fun.

I was just trying to learn Ragnaros in quick match. I probably should've went to AI, but I was excited because I got that "Lil Ragnaros" skin. I thought quick match was ok for practice, and ranked was for serious play. At one point it was suggested that "suicide would be painless" towards the end of the second game (also a loss). That made me feel like crap and it was then that I realized I could mute them with that little gear icon when I press TAB. My exciting experience getting a new skin was ruined, why do that to a stranger?

    It's definitely not ok. Please make sure you report things like this so they can be properly dealt with. We don't need these kind of people in our game destroying the experience for others.

    Sorry this happened. Try not to let a few idiots ruin your experience. The vast majority of players are far more welcoming.
