Dating site for gamers

DVD Talk Limited Edition
Like Groucho said....all a female gamer has to do is mention the words "like" and "video games" and suddenly guys will appear from all corners of the store/mall/whatever. Women don't need to plaster thier pics on some gamer dating website to "find" guys.

One of the best things about getting to know someone is learning about all of the bands/films/artists/hobbies that you weren't aware of or ignored. It is also nice though when you can bond over the few that you might share.

I mean, I'm a big fan of Iron Maiden, but I'd be scared of a girl that's also into them.

PS. Also last time I looked all you needed to play video games was a brain and two hands and last time I looked women had both.
PSS. I still want to bitch slip you.

What I want to know is if his wife said hey can I try your video games would he get nerves around her or something?
I mean I just want to do this to him a few times.

The first remark was sexist, but he clarified what he meant later.
And he's right. Cool, normal, hot chicks (that most people would think are hot anyway) are rarely interested in games.
I mean, if one of my friends was wanting to set me up with someone, and mentioned she was into video games, I'd decline as soon as I heard that just because odds are she wouldn't be my type.

Honestly, she's a got a few problems stemming from a shitty childhood to overcome : she goes to AA (9 months sober). But I didn't have a great childhood myself... But she's a 34D and NOT FAT (although not a scrawny waif either, as is the popular look these days).

Hope she doesn't find this post. She'd probably kick my ass for talking about her bra size.
As far as game-playing women not needing to look for guys - no kidding. You should see the way EB/Best Buy clerks, the dudes at Suncoast, or the dudes in the anime store, flock to "see if she needs help". There's this one guy that follows her around talking to her at Wizzywig's (anime store in Ann Arbor, MI). She said he freaks her out. And half the time she catches them looking at her breasts. Nerdy guys are pretty bad with women.

I'll say it again: you need to meet more people.

You need to meet more people then. I'm 25 years old. I'm a woman. I play games. I don't consider myself "fringe" or obsessed or scary. My roomate (also a chick) her sister and other friends of mine come over and play games as well. They seem pretty normal too.
I do other things; photography, draw, take apart rebuild my pc on regular basis, watch movies, eat spicy food. I also like long walks on the beach and romantic dinners....
what I'm saying is,
not all girls that play games are total scary winches.
the same can be said about guys who play games. Not all of them are dorks or nerds full of acne that are totally socially inept.
my 2.2 cents

I've also seen some non-nerdy guys be complete asses to women as well.
On the flip side of the coin:
I have noticed more than a few occasions where women will wear something tight or revealing *ON PURPOSE* and walk into a store like Best Buy knowing damn well they are going to be looked at and given special attention from the male workers.

To these people saying "you need to meet more people." What's your definition of hot.
Mine's very much the standard "model" type. I've met 1 girl in my life that I'd classify as that type of hot who was into games.
So they do exist, but they are rare.

Wedding picture:

Linked it because it was too big. This is in a chapel about 20 minutes outside of Vegas (and it's 100+ degrees).
Not the hottest kind of picture in the world, but it's what I have available at work.
