So what?
Most RPG players are male. There are more female players in the hobby than in the past, but the hobby will probably always be one that primarily attracts males, no matter what they do with the art. Why not market to your customer base?
Because the market is growing and diversifying and it's in a company's best interests to foster an environment that's less hostile to their customers/potential customers.
You say that it will probably always 'primarily attract males' but I don't think that's necessarily true. The female gamer market is growing all the time, who's to say that it won't eventually equalise?
