I never understood this mentality. Why can't you be friends with male gamers? How is being a girl who plays games any different from being a guy who plays games (aside from being more likely to get harassed on MMOs)? This whole "girl gamer" thing is so dumb - a gamer is just a gamer IMO. :/

Except that they have a vagina and tits

I don't think there's anything wrong with wanting some female friends, too, so I don't know why OP's getting jumped on. She never said anything about the state of her male friendships, after all.

You are my personal hero for the day. I don't know how I missed the interpretation everyone else got from this secret, but that is the way I read it too.

People have a strong kneejerk reaction to people who identify themselves as "girl gamers." They automatically get typecast as attention-whorey guild princess frag doll booth babe types.

Which, uh, should maybe say something about the gender politics of gaming culture.

Says several things about it, if you ask me.

This. Exactly. Thank you.

I'm not the OP but I'm a "girl gamer" who doesn't refer to herself as one and I have plenty of male friends who game but no female friends. I would love to find some girls who play games other than Mario but only because it would be nice to talk about girly things *and* games with the same person. Really though, is that a big deal? Nope.

This is exactly how I feel.
