Something happened in our group last night, a discussion rather, but it pertains to these threads regardign female gamers currently.
Now, this is second hand, but I'll do my best.
Apparently one of our players, we'll call him Bob, since coincidentally, that is his name, got an email from someone through meetup to join their group. He's quite happy with our group, but we'd taken a bit of a hiatus since the DM was out of town, so he figured one game wouldn't hurt.
So, he goes to this other group which is apparently just a couple - a man and a wife. I think there was another guy who plays with them, but he might have been absent. So, he describes the couple as decent enough people, and they hand him an NPC to play - a female barbarian who's really tall.
Well, that might not sound weird, but the female in our group routinely plays fighters or barbarians who are really tall. It's just a weird quirk with her. So, he finds it amusing, until they mention that "Shannon" (the female in our group) used to play it. "That's odd" Bob thinks. Then they mentioned Shannon's boyfriend "Dave", and that's just too much of a coincidence, since that's the GM of our group, and Shannon's boyfriend.
But Bob doesn't say anything, instead happily plays the game.
Now, during the course of this game, the female - the wife of the GM, keeps touching Bob's feet under the table. Bob doesn't think anything more about it, since he just figures she's stretching out her feet, but it continues to the point where it's no longer a coincidence. She's literally playing "footsie" with him under the table!
At some point in the evening, after the "Dave" comment, Bob mentions that he knows Shannon and Dave, and plays with them. They asked him if they know "Kerry", another guy in our group. He said yea, and they asked him if he'd seen him lately. "Yea, like last week", at this point they get really mad apparently.
I guess what happened was that Dave and Shannon and Kerry all used to play with this couple, but got kind of weirded out. Apparently, the wife had er, um... fellated Kerry, and Kerry had some odd suspicions that the husband might kind of enjoy a threesome with Kerry and his wife. Kerry wasn't into that, so left. I think Dave and Shannon had other reasons.
Needless to say, Bob was kind of weirded out by the entire experience, and has decided that he won't be going back to game there.
Kerry and Dave commented that they thought the husband kind of tolerated her fooling around, and they had a real open relationship. They didn't know if it worked both ways or not, though, that is, they didn't know if the husband was allowed to fool around or not, or if it was just the wife that did that.
Needless to say, very odd.
