I've been told, that I'm the first female gamer to come here.

Grix told me.

Are you sure.....or are you just pulling my leg?

Is it that difficult for a girl to be a gamer? Every boy that I talk to thinks I'm a bit of a wierdo, but I think that we should have the same rights as boys/men when playing computer games. Are we meant to be playing with Barbies, and baby dolls....because if we are...there is definatley something wrong with me! I have never liked Barbies or baby dolls, like many of my friends did, and when I played on my Gameboy they thought i was some freak. Thank god for computer games.



Now....

just to be sure that Grix wasn't pulling my leg (and I'm sure he wasn't), if there are any other female gamers on this site that haven't spoken up yet........

put your name below......

and if you're not female...

put your name below as well

Wasn't there another female gamer around a while ago that complained about all the banners and things, I'm sure I replied to something last month.
Right, I'm off to have a look down the list...

Grix,

I like Zelda,

Shoot 'em ups like Goldeneye, and Perfect Dark,

and I've also got Mario Kart for a bit of fun.

I also borrow friends games, which are usually shoot 'em ups.....Jet Force Gemini

I'm a woman too, but decided not to advertise the fact as guys tend to take a judgemental attitude towards you. I had to change my psudenom in a Japanese martial arts forum I contribute to because of sad american jock types who thought I knew nothing because I'm a girl, either that or they were patronisingly nice.
Anyways if you read between the lines this forum is not too bad sister.
