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.

It is also nice though when you can bond over the few that you might share.
Totally agree. You have to have some overlap in interests or it won't go anywhere, just the same as if you like exactly the same things. It has to be a happy medium.

UH Man My Wife is into video games and anime and even will read my comic books. She is a very smart and beautiful woman. I really wish I could bitch slip you for that post.

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.

When I want to talk smart about video games I come to this site. Now if I just want a chat about them I use teamxbox. The mods don't put up with name calling and fan boys here. Teamxbox lets them geeks call each other all types of shit and it's full of fan boys.

You can do that??????????? I think you're lying next thing you know you're going to tell me you can fix grammar like that too.

No need to insult people. And if you read above you'd see that he's married.

Yeah I removed that part of my post. He is also not going to tell me my wife should not be into video games. I also did not insult him I just want too bitch slap him. I did not call him a name or nothing. Also what he said was sexist nobody can say otherwise.

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.

yeah this can't be real, I'm sure most of the chicks are made up. I have yet to see a hot girl into video games.

Damn I must be lucky then cause I find one. You're also going to have allot women say hot guys don't play games so I guess all the guys on here are ugly ass people.

Well, my wife isn't the hottest women in existance, but she's good looking. Not typical, though. And very hot to me. I can't stand those [typically blonde] high maintenence scrawny anorexic-looking chicks. Keep them the F*** away from me. When looking at the wedding pictures from this summer my coworker said "What have you got on this woman to get her to marry you".

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 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

Okay, I think it's about time I used this response....

Pics?

There are plenty of hot girls that are into video games. The problem is finding ones that are single.

Well, perhaps not quite to the level of flocking...but most guys do tend to notice when an attractive woman walks into the store..nerdy or not, game store or not.

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.

My wife plays video games, sometimes more than I do. I'm pretty sure she's not a freak.

She also never gives me crap about getting anime and manga and comics or games cause she is into all of that too. She also pretty damn hot looking woman.

Wedding picture:

http://www.svsu.edu/~dpbatzer/wedding18.jpg


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.
