I’ve been playing games since I was four years old. I have been playing on-line games for about 5 years. And I am a woman. And not the only one, too.

But still men carry an old belief that only they play games, and if a woman plays, she surely must be really bad at it. They think they have an expanded brain or something that allows them to perform such advanced tasks as playing games (or drive for that matter). Well, sorry guys, it’s not much of an advanced task.

It is true that women are only new to the world of gaming. If you consider that women in places like Saudi Arabia are still strictly prohibited from doing these evil deeds, it’s not that strange.

And in most countries of the world, even more advanced, women are still brought up as housewives. Not that there’s something wrong with it. I have to accept that the woman is the one who carries a baby. But still she works in almost every job available. So how come, when she is expected to work and offer the society as much as a man, she is not expected to be a capable gamer or driver.

I have been using Irc for many years now. Most of the times for the fun in the main chat rooms. Some others I played with the stupidity of men in private chats. Rarely for some good general discussions. Like music, politics, racism, even history.

No. I don’t want to meet anyone through a chat even if they send me their photo. I have already met a lot of jerks in real life to be blond enough to meet guys from Irc too (I use the word blond cause there is a popular belief that blond girls have a lower IQ).

It is fun to see them try though. Sometimes with stupid arguments like that they are bussinessmen, that they have a Mercedes or a BMW car or a house with a view and swiming pool. Who cares? Others (the most fun to play with) try to impress by saying that they are hackers, smart, good-looking or both. They all argue that they are simply trying to find a woman through Irc because they do not have the time to go out. Seriously, do they think we buy that? They are naive if the think we are naive enough to pay any attention to what they are saying.
