[QUOTE=Brynn]Awww no!!! In our guild in WoW, I'm the only girl - some of the guildies actually know I am female in real life, the others don't and I prefer it that way... Because as soon as guys find out that I'm a girl they go crazy and want to defend me which usually means I am supposed to stay back and only act on their instructions

"Stay back, I'll pull, heal me only when I use the /y Heal! macro"...

No, I'd rather keep this info private.[/QUOTE]

I assure you for whatever it's worth, there are still male gamers out there like me who would be more than happy to push anyone else in harms way and hang in the back themselves regardless of gender.

My motto has always been you can't win if you're dead.

[QUOTE=C Elegans]What about "gamer"?

There is not special word for male gamer, so why should there be a need for a special word for female gamers?[/QUOTE]
That's crazy! Ofcourse there isn't a special word for male gamer, because there's only one word for both. That's exactly what bothered the initial poster...

(Name for a male gamer: G-male

)

[QUOTE=dragon wench]On a slightly more serious note. My son has related something entertaining to me. He tends to play a couple of online games, and he frequently selects female characters precisely because the male players give him all kinds of nice freebies as a result.

He's been paying far too much attention to my stories on how to slip by customs officials...

This only goes to show that you have an intensely brilliant son. Nice work.

No one in this house needs a wonder bra as much as Aegis.
