With that said, Cam I'm not sure how I feel about your point. The only way anyone finds out who made any kind of product is by doing homework. This is one of the few industries I can think of where people dig this deep to see who does what. When you buy a box of cereal, or a car, or just about anything else do we ever stop and say "Gee I wonder if a woman helped create these corn flakes." Why should it matter? Do you like the car you just bought? If it was created by a team of German men does that diminish its value because no woman contributed to its design? As consumers we want the best of whatever it is we're buying, and if it was made by a diverse group of people, hey, so much the better.Diversity is great, please don't get me wrong, but it isn't the solution to making everything better every single time. And yes, this hobby is male driven. Why? We are the bulk of the gamer base. Ever see a picture of the Gen-Con doors opening up? That is a sea of dudes punctuated here and there by female gamers. Is that bad? No. Maybe we are trying too hard to see a disparity that might not exist is all I'm saying.</blockquote>
