bet you do pony fucker
I have no problem with girls playing video games lol I think gaming is becoming more of a norm, just my thought
[QUOTE=Laferio;29385278]bet you do pony fucker[/QUOTE] The fuck is that.. [editline]time[/editline] Oh I see, Clever!
I have read that 60% of all people that play games are female. That includes farmville and flashgames. So they are not actually gamers, but they do play games.
In Australia, the ratio is like 100:1 in terms of guys and girls when playing games.
over decade ago i was always amazed to discover that great sniper is girl :) today it's not so shocking standard and it's more shocking it's not wider range and accepted by everyone (probably has with the various rights issue of woman in half of world)

I introduced my 8-year-old sister to Portal. She loves it. :buddy:

[QUOTE=Empty_Shadow;29386651]Until you hit university, where it reaches only a 97:1 ratio.[/QUOTE] Next year my friend. I will probably be doing Computer Science with a sub-elective of Game Development. Then I will see what the real ratio is.
Are more girls playing games? Doesn't really matter. I won't be getting any more pussy.
I've been trying to get my female friends hooked on Minecraft. So far....100% victory. and by victory I mean they bought copies of the game and are playing it a lot.
Yes defiantly, my sister plays the Assassins Creed series, a few shooting games. Online there are alot more girls then there were say 2 years ago.
Swilly did you disagree with my post at the top of the page because i disagree'd with your post?
Female Gamers tend to be one of four types: 1. The gurrrrrrl gamer 2. The clan-slut 3. The stay-at-home mom 4. The gamer who happens to be a girl
Fucking hate clan-sluts that get all the respect just because they've got a 5 foot deep vagina.
Hot dog down a hallway girl.
Don't know many myself, but my sister has a steam account with the Orange Box/L4D/And the older Half-Life series.
What a coincidence I come accross this thread. I bought L4D2 last week and there's a girl on it, she talks on the mic and couple days ago some kid (sounded around 13 or 14yrs old) claimed he was 26yrs old and acted like a dickhead to her ... probably just trying to get her attention. He was trying a bad attempt at sounding confident by making sex jokes and what not, yelling at her etc... She was pretty pissed. Pretty funny lol. I'm a male gamer ... no suprise ... I don't care if it's a girl or guy ... as long as they're mature. Fucking sick of hearing "faggot noob eat my cum!" from little pre-teen and teen boys.
Since when do you eat cum? I always thought of it as a drink, a white drink that has alot of different variation in viscosity; this is normal.

There's a fine line between gamer girls and girl gamers. Gamer girls play games because they enjoy gaming, they're just as good as any other guy would be, and they legitimately enjoy games just as any male would, regardless of their gender. I have three of these people on my friends list. Girl gamers, aka grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrl gamers <3, are the girls who play games in order to be attention whores. They're the type of people who spam on servers, and are constantly surrounded by medics. Most girls who play games are gamer girls, but there are still girl gamers out there.

I barely play Multiplayer, but I've got at least ONE woman on my Steam Friends List (she's an admin in another forum I go to, and pretty well respected there) and apparently someone here on FP added me and according to the comments on her profile she is a girl (whoever jennyaero or jenny is, that's who I'm speaking of. Never spoke to her despite accepting the friend request.), but that's the extent of my girl-gamer knowledge.
Was playing L4D2 the other day, and this person named Kat was playing. Adds me the next day (because yesterday was gaming cafe account) and I learn she's a girl. I didn't make the connection between Kat and girl. Am I a bad person? But I have been seeing girls being more known, so I'd say our intel on the female gaming persuasion is on the rise.
[QUOTE=Instant Mix;29374713]he has to have a mental disorder seriously nobody can be [b] that [/b] retarded[/QUOTE] well i thought that was apparent the first time he talked as funny as it is it is sad at the same time :( [editline]24th April 2011[/editline] why do you guys care about what gender people are in video games anyways who cares infact this is such a problem that i could probably play l4d and pretend to be a girl whilest playing rochelle or zoey and then get all the healthkits and such(cuz i've done it before, just cuz i was dicking around) they were like (on their mics)"oh i think this person might be a girl" and i was like (in text chat)"i am"(i'm not) and they were like "you're lying" and i was like "you don't have to believe me i don't care" and they were like "oh shit it really is a girl" and then they started giving me all of the health kits and healing me whenever i got hurt and then we lost
[QUOTE=Flip pl;29373894]Every single girl on TF2 I've seen is a pyro. Not that they are the W+M1 types, it's just they are only playing pyro, never other classes.[/QUOTE] To me, whenever i saw a girl playing TF2 she was either a Medic or a Soldier.
The think all the silly sexism and tension that people talk about only exists because the concept of girls playing games is abstract to them. Once a balance is established, it will be normally and nobody will make a deal of it. This is why you find the two major types of girls, the ones that are proud that they are female and try to take an advantage with this attribute over socially inadequate males and girls that just happen to play games because it is fun.
[QUOTE=john_frohman;29389854]To me, whenever i saw a girl playing TF2 she was either a Medic or a Soldier.[/QUOTE] That honestly depends on the personality. Most say playing Medic is great because you don't need to fight that much (Because their aim sucks.) I play Demoknight most because chopping heads is just awesome. I also know one who's a Sniper main and Spy secondary. It all boils down to the personality. One thing I've noted tho is that guys tend to switch classes way more easily. Don't know if this is noteworthy or not. And even though I'm not doing any huge scoring people still throw kitchen jokes. Like, what's the point?
Some guys are retards who find it manly to tell us/girls to get back in the kitchen when it doesn't really do shit other than make themselves look more retarded. Back hand off the server you stupid shit.
