[QUOTE="Ed Cha, post: 2089507, member: 10972"] 1. None 2. Less than 5% 3. There seems to be more compassion and interaction with children. 4. Yes, they seem to be more interested in the plot than other gamers. 5. Hard to say, but I see less power-gaming among female gamers. They seem to focus more on the character and nature of their PC. 6. No, I think they know the rules just as much as most male gamers, but tend to put their priorities elsewhere. 7. There are fewer misogynistic/racial jokes and more seriousness in the roleplaying experience. Having female gamers in a group is a good thing. 8. Males and females often have different interests and hobbies. 9. Yes, but I don't know why as I've never played Vampire. 10. I don't know. 11. No, not really. Most of the female gamers I've played with have at least a basic understanding of the rules. 12. No, I've never played in an all-female game. At least 70-80% of my games have been with only males. 13. It is often the husband or boyfriend who gets the female gamer involved in a group. That has its advantages and disadvantages. 14. No, I have not seen any fighting between a gamer couple during a game. 15. From my experience, it seems that female gamers do bring in a lot of emotions from outside the game into the game itself. This can be distracting. 16. No, there does not seem to more quarreling. 17. If you're talking about the general approach to gaming, yes. I can't explain how though. [/QUOTE]
