[QUOTE="Elf Witch, post: 1073394, member: 9037"] You yourself said that you view yourself as aytypical when it comes to your views. And that your friends views were aytpical as well. I will admit to a knee jerk reaction to this because in my 45 years of experiance I have often found that when woman say things like that they are often looking down their noses at woman who are not like them. Sometimes this is not even a conscious thing. I apoligize if I took this the wrong way but as I said some of it comes from weary experiances like going to join a game at a convention run by a female DM who took one look at me and said no I could not play in her game that she wanted only serious gamers. Not girls who just wanted to be with the guys. You know what she based this on? The fact that I had on a dress and make up and had long fingernails. I had a dress on because I had come from work and I always wear make up. Woman are often more judgemental when it comes to another woman than they are of men. Just because you don't like romance you think that is atypical and it is not. That's like saying if guy is not into basketball he is atypical. I did not say there was anything wrong in what you liked to play and as for the last comment I am sorry if I did not make it clear that I was responding to several things others had said not just you.
