They just joined us this year. 2. probably 25% just going on a random sample at conventions and such.3.I don't think the play style changes a huge amount, but some of the approaches are definately different, and some of them seem more willing and eager to do roleplaying. 4. I think some are and some aren't just like guys. I don't think there's any overall explanation other than personal preference. 5. Hell no! One of the female gamers in our group is an absolute monster with power gaming. in one encounter she single handedly wiped the floor with every single opponent on the map in one round!6. Agian no, this goes by personal preference. A couple are really rules oriented and like to pwoergame, a couple are less rules oreinted and just like to play. 7.I think like any group with more diversity it can give people a broader exposure to many points of view, so it's a good thing. 8.Typical male geek sterotyping maybe? possible that there is some prediliction towards it due to societal expectations but those sorts of things seem to be falling away over the years. 9.I do tend to see more females involved in these games just looking around our campus, but overall I'd say the proportions aren't much different than dnd and other types of games. 10. If there are, I don't know of any. 11. No, most have managed to pick up at least the basics over time. 12. This year is really the first time I've played in a long term campaign with female gamers, So I guess 90% of my time has been spent iwth groups that are male only. I think this is mostly due to a lack of knowing any interested females at the time rahter than some lack of female roleplayers. 13. I knew one girl who played dnd mosly just becuase her boyfriend was dm, she was someone who normally only played storytellers. Other than that, most female gamner's I've met got into it on their own. 14. No thankfully, such drama hasn't occurred. 15.Not any more than males. 16. If there is its a very marginal increase simply due to having some more points of view. I think it provides more approaches to the game, which seems to provoke more thought and discusssion. 17. Some are, some aren't. for the most part I think it's by preference than anything.</blockquote>
