Quote from: tikki_tikki2000
There have been many issues and discussions on the topic of women and rpgs. There are some who feel that most games out there are sexist and are completely targeted towards males, they feel this is true because of the subject matter and the fact that most of the women in the books are hardly wearing anything. There have also been issues of stereotyping females. Men who play female characters are more likely to have the personality of either the cold hearted bitch, or the seductive slut.
Anyways, what does everyone here feel about this? What are everyone's thoughts about women in gaming?
I'm concerned we have gone off on a tangent from what you were looking for in this thread. Has the discussion posted thus far helped, and is there a specific post or notion you'd like us to discuss further?
