ENWorld women

[Laurel]

Hey all, just read through this thread.... Anyone keeping count of the females as it would be interesting to have numbers for the ratio count

I too am a female gamer. Interest in DnD came later in my almost quarter century of living, but I have always had geeky ways. Currently I live in that rebel state of Virginia, and my husband and I just got clear title to our condo I am happily employed, and game when I can. For those times when I can't, there's always WoW

Sorry devilish another gamer girl in the married category. I will say that I know lots who are not married, but most are also not lurkers/subscribers to these boards

And how many of the women here are single.....

Sorry but it's just a bad idea to break up with your DM; it just never goes well for your character.

So I'll just jump on the band wagon and say HI like all of the other cool kids. I'm a 24 year old, female gamer. I got started gaming when one of my friends pointed out how fun and cool it was (my perception of cool and popular has always been a little skewed and self-deceptive ). Then I met my DM and boyfriend (Shalewind) and I started gaming with his group. We (my boyfriend and I...and, come to think of it, our gaming group too) have been together for nearly 5 years.

I only know 3 other female gamers although I have only gamed with 2 of them. But then again, I lived in Oklahoma until a year and a half ago, and admitting you're a gamer (much less a female one) is likely to get the Church Squad on your doorstep.

Hey, Randomling, you ever try recruiting at Nutkinland/Nothingland/Damnation Army? (Current url in my sig.) It used to have a ladies' forum, but it got axed on the last move. I'm still not 100% sure why, though. The Nutkinland ladies would probably like having a place to talk again, though...

Hiya CZ!

I used to hang out at NTL, but have never got around to signing up for Damnation Army. Sounds like a plan though - assuming that Nutkin/Ratatosk/whatever he's calling himself at the moment and Margo wouldn't mind too much? (Of course, we're a very different style of board from NTL-as-was... more like the cute and fluffy side of ENWorld rather than the dark side! )

Thanks!

I wouldn't think they would mind. Just make at least one post in the Recruiting forum *before* you make the post for your Girl Talk forum. People who pimp things on their very first post tend to have... messy endings.

Er.... yes.... I'm not sure I want to incur Margo-wrath. That would be ugly.

yeah, CZ's got a good idea. while i'm sure some of the ladies there are as rough and tumble as some of the guys, i'm betting there are those who would like to have a civilized discussion from time to time without having to worry about someone becoming belligerent or streaming obscenities. heh...

and that's probably a two way street too, as i wouldn't be surprised if a few randomlingers wouldn't enjoy a "walk on the wild side"...

As I understand it, a few randomlingers already do.... or at least did at NTL. I was one of them!

 

[BOZ]

there may be a few.

now that you have introduced yourself, the next thing to do would be to go to the "Field Manual" forum and find the thread titled "Just Asking" and mention that you might know where to find a girls' only forum.
