Robbert: lol! What did you think this thread was about?!

Actually, I guessed it right, especially seeing the name of the thread-starter. It was only after I pressed backspace that I saw the number of views, and something clicked in that testosterone-dominated brain of mine......

Agresive, independant, etc.

Shoulda made that clear.

ok

*thumbs up*

Not a gamer girl, but a ful fledged gammer guy.

I am currently involved in two games that have women in them.

One has 6 players, 2 of which are female, the other has 8 players, 5 of which are female. My wife and I make op 2 of the players in each of these games (actualy I run the smaller game and she plays)

It's a little different being in a game that is dominated by female players.

If the two of you are ever near Chicago; look us up for dinner or gaming or something!

Following up with what Kris said, be careful, we might take you up on your offer. It's been five years since I was last back to the city of my birth....may be a few years longer though, given the three youngsters.

And as for your munchkins not being old enough to game, let me recommend the Fuzzy Heroes gaming system (fom Inner City Games Design). It teaches little ones all of the mechanics of miniatures gaming, using stuffed animals! It's also great fun for adults.

Now back to the original topic (sort of). Randomling, it's nice to see your board is back up again. I don't see the Girl Talk forum yet, not that you'd let me in because of that old X/Y chromosome thing. It's good to see Kit is now a registerred member at Randomling's House. Now what do we have to do to get other readers of this thread (and/or their significant others, where applicable) to join our freindly little house?

I'm 19, almost 20. I hate girls a little bit more than I hate boys. I especially hate the breeding ones. I don't wear makeup or fuss over sissy crap. I am asexual.

Girl Talk is being created as I speak. We're even having an open user group. Men, sign up at your peril!

I would love to see the people from this thread come and hang out in my house! The link is in my sig, and as previously mentioned we're setting up a Girl Talk forum for just this kind of chat. If you're not a girl, there might be other stuff to interest you. Though there's not a Boy Talk forum.... yet.

Come to shut me up, stay for the friendly atmosphere and nice people.

Please keep it that way, there are already more than enough boards and forums online for that. Besides, how many posts in a row can you read about spitting, scratching yourself, and wearing old underwear with holes in it?

I second that, with emphasis on the "friendly atmosphere and nice people" comment. Even when people disagree they do so in a civil, courteous, and respectful way. I wouldn't want to see that change.

Fair enough! I think we will, so much of the rest of the boards are "boy talk" anyway. We have Outwar forums!

Yeah: we work quite hard to keep it that way, too!

Any of you girls not married and need a ugly fat couch ornament? Just joking

I am not female, obviously, but my DM is my sister She is probably one of the best roleplayers I have ever seen and I notice as I play at the table with more female gamers that they're generally better with character concept, in character actions, etc. than the male members of my group.

I can also say that the female members of my forums are some of the most intelligent members.

You know what we need? A female D20 game designer I haven't seen any of those yet.

In regards to Pbartender: And for all these years I've thought I was the lucky one. How many women find guys who aren't intimidated by aggressive, confident, independant women who have opinions about everything?

One more woman will have when I eventually get hitched. Heck, all the traits women have that bother most men don't bother me at all. Also, I have little-no interest in most so-called 'manly' subjects I.E. sports, belching, brawling, telling exaggerated stories of sexual exploits, etc.

eh, they're just not looking hard enough. good guys are out there.

*Shoots of flare!* YO!

Hehe - I've found a few but I find that men are quite trainable.

Woof. I'm a regular lump of clay, but I'm steadily drying and waiting for that kiln that is 'the' woman.
