This is what peer pressure will get you..... making the paladin think he can get cooties, of which he is immune to after 2nd level...... Unless he's a 9 yr old pally.....

He wouldn't know until a few years later when he starts..... "experimenting"
But before that, probably when he stops crying, "COOTIES!" everytime when he sees a girl.

In that the "moderation" is really just an aspect of biological competition. If that same group of gamers didn't control their impulses, and they thought it was the most likely means of achieving sex with the females, they'd just as soon bash their best friend's brains in.
Men in the absence of women are more relaxed, honest, and open with each other.
The concept that women as a group are in some way more "moderate" or "civilized" than men as a group is nonsense, and the only "influence" they exert as a group is the basic animal instinct to procreate leading men to act less relaxed, less honestly, and often less rationally, than when there are no women around.
Incidentally, it is the same basic biology that makes the group of 9 year old boy gamers want to "kill off" the "yucky" 9 year old girl gamers. By your standard, would that mean that 9 year old girls have historically been a "homicidal influence"?
On a practical level, I have found gaming groups that are all-male to be neither inferior nor superior to mixed-gender games in terms of quality of roleplay; however, the mixed-gender groups were invariably more likely to have player-to-player conflict or tension.

Ya, most of them women who have gamed with us in the past are shy, quiet and blush if you make vulgar jokes rather than joining in.
They'd sit in a corner and only speak when spoken to like they didn't know what to do or say while our group of guys would make sexual comments about their character. I remember at least one game where the one female player in the group played a handmaiden to a princess NPC. The entire group kept wondering what her duties as handmaiden included and if they could watch or join in.
The female player in the group would tend to say things like "It's nothing like that....sickos.." and then be quiet again.
That was pretty much the response we got from almost all our female players. Of course, the male players liked to see the female players blush and find answers to their comments, so they continued to make them. Then again, I think we were even MORE vulgar without females around. Well, mostly with me being the outsider. I don't really go for all that vulgar talk.
