September 2nd? Sounds like you're in Canada with me.
Regarding the article - it may be true, however the chances of finding a female gaming buddy in NS have been non-existent so far for me. Why? Because immature guys will always try to hit on them if they speak up. Maybe this is because playing with or against a female players is so unusual. And as a result, immature guys will always try to hit on them if they speak up. So the cycle repeats...
Until maybe female players decide to strike back and show some resolve. Have some confidence and leave those that see them as any different as a reproach. Very few do this right now. Most just remain silent.
Fine you can fall victim to the propeganda, and sure it's easy to believe that they play games just cause they tell you so. But hey I have a spaceshp that flies to the moon, really.
Maybe this is some kind of conspiracy to steal our games and turn them into work out videos or something, I don't know. But until there is good solid proof that girls that play games exist I'll stick to my nice real FPS games.

good call, but what do you doubt, exactly?
you said "i doubt it is true".
what is this in reference to?
obviously there aren't a fat lot of gaming girls to meet out there. just some, in my experience.
but they still exist. case closed. i mean.. w7f. they exist IRL.. they exist on games, too.
what.. i mean.. i just don't get it. why not?? <!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

i see. i was just kinda concerned that you shared dr. d's view that they don't exist 0_o
i can't really say whether or not i believe they outnumber us. doesn't seem likely, from a logical standpoint, but then, i'm a gamer. so i can't have an objective view on this.

of all people. i could care less, at this point. dubb, that was just completely stupid.
never say that again. i'm not even talking to jane, notice. i don't care who's reading this except for the people that need to think differently about the issue.
As a matter of fact, the article stated that females at the age of 18 or older (who were <b>surveyed</b> - this is an important fact) outnumber male gamers from the ages of 6-17.
This states that females <b>do not outnumber males overall -only when speaking of these two demographics</b>.
Chauvanist pigs out there can rest easy.

omg... FFS... like at least 3/4 of the chix i talk to from games are f*cking 19+!! it's so ARGH...
i'm only kinda close with ONE of them... it's hard, because i'm 16.. and it's like i'm talking to a grown woman who couldn't care less, instead of another generation D teenangster..
That's more of an encouragment than a threat.
<i>honestly... disemboweling yourself... f*ckin teenangster. just drown yourself in sunny D instead.</i>
i'll say that for mister evil 'cause he's not here right now.
And then you'll be sorry. <i>Oh you will</i>. I blame it on MonsE, for he was your inspiration.
MonsE - you are <b>so</b> haunted!

Actually I don't start school till september 2nd and I have the wonderful privelage to work 40 hours a week, so I am trying to enjoy my time before it becomes the unavoidable hell that is working full time and going to school.
And. Suure you would be playing games, mhmm.......
Next you're going to tell me girls don't go to a special school where all they do is teach cooking and flirting.

Regarding the article - it may be true, however the chances of finding a female gaming buddy in NS have been non-existent so far for me. Why? Because immature guys will always try to hit on them if they speak up. Maybe this is because playing with or against a female players is so unusual. And as a result, immature guys will always try to hit on them if they speak up. So the cycle repeats...
Until maybe female players decide to strike back and show some resolve. Have some confidence and leave those that see them as any different as a reproach. Very few do this right now. Most just remain silent.
Maybe this is some kind of conspiracy to steal our games and turn them into work out videos or something, I don't know. But until there is good solid proof that girls that play games exist I'll stick to my nice real FPS games.
Why is more female gamers a bad thing?

"Hah! Now I've chased you to the hive, limping and wounded. Time to end your ... Hey, you're a <i>girl</i>? Wow, didn't know your kind played this game. Cool. Yeah? Sure, I'll turn around when you change egg. Didum-didam. Ehm, you think ... you think we could, perhaps, one day, get together and grab a coffee at Hera Reception or something? No.. no .. 'ts ok. I understand -- you don't date food. (sigh) Woha, big horns!"

However, whether this is bad or not can be argued. I find it charming.
*DUDE, SHUT UP.... she's gonna hear you!!!* [stifled laughter]
*Alright, there shes goes... OHHH SH*T-* [scuffling background]
*ow, dude... -*
*shut yer f*cking face, stupid!! alright.. there she goes.. she's about to gest-*
"HOOOOOOOLY SWEET MOTHER OF THE GAWDDAMNED BABY JESUS, LOOK AT THE SPORE PODS ON THAT LERK!!!"
**WRREAAAARRGH***
"OH MY GOD!!! SHE CAN SEE US THROUGH THE MEMBRANE!!!"
It's only a bad thing if people start acting like that.

Oh whatever, note that the description under my avatar says "Hive Queen".
