[QUOTE="barsoomcore, post: 1882349, member: 812"] My wife got into gaming because I started a campaign after we were married, and we're not like Afrodyte: we do everything together. Probably grosses some people out, but that's how we like it. I mean, together. Not gross. Anyhoo. Mrs. Barsoom has definitely become a "for the game" player and is planning her own d20 DarkMatter campaign. She's also become my "DM Pimp" and is forever organizing new games, often with people who don't currently game at all. I owe my Stewardesses game to her efforts. And speaking of which, there's a game with four women who are definitely NOT there for the social or relationship-y aspects -- they're there to play. They like a fast-paced, hack and slash approach but heck, they've only played three times, so I'm not worried much. :D The people I game with are sufficiently advanced socially that having a person of the opposite gender in the room is not exciting enough to significantly alter behaviour. Girls don't get much ego-stroking. Nor do guys. All ego-stroking in my games is reserved for the DM. Me. I encourage it. [/QUOTE]
