    Is it just to do with their lack of testosterone? Could be case closed here? And of course I'm talking broadly and generally.

    It's to do with the fact it's one to add to the list of distractions away from her....

    Because 99% of all games are made and marketed towards male gamers. It's bloody ridiculous.

    Hmmm, I don't see this. The women I know all play games of one sort or another...

    Come on mate, it's not rocket science.

    Computer Games - boys

    Girls World - girls


    We NEED to retain a few of these differences in our stupidly PC world, or we'll all end up lezers.


    That supposes there is a very basic division between males and females when there really isn't.

    In my experience games have to have at least one of these things in order to appeal to the ladies :

    Ribbons
    Kittens
    Mittens

    Stupid Nintendo and the little gay Wii might get women interested. If girls have the confidence to pick up the Wii-mote; then it won't be long before you come home from work to no dinner and the little woman sitting playing on your console. :(

    I'd pay to see that.

    It's the only time I get some peace and quiet, therefore I'm happy to never know the reason and just accept it with a big hearty grin on my face.

    I used to go out with a girl (for two and a half years) that had (and loved) a Megadrive, this was about 13 years ago..I mean she loved it, spent ages on it, I never got to have a go and she was better than me at Lion King. We split up.

    females don't play games because they can have multiple orgasms.

    Or, at least they can with somebody who gives a shit.
