[QUOTE="Piratecat, post: 1078587, member: 2"] My fault, KB, not his; when he posted that, I hadn't yet removed the OT "courtesan" posts. I was reluctant to partially edit Fusangite's post, and the rest of it was on topic, so I just left it as is. I can see how you'd mistake that for someone beating a dead horse, though. In fact, unless I'm mistaken, Hong is beating his dead horse right now. So let's let that particular subject drop, please - including this whole "courtesan" thing - and get back on topic. I think it's a fair statement that gaming in general, as well as EN World, is male dominated. I tend to see that about 15-20% of gaming con attendees are women, and I think that percentage is about accurate overall, although most female players I know are lest active on message boards than most male players I know. Given that there are at least four men in the hobby for every woman, the question becomes: how does a group of male players make their game more accessible to female players, and should they change their normal playing style to accomodate a new member (male [i]or[/i] female)?
