We need more women here

[Agathon]

Perhaps we need to stop scaring the women away.

There's a gorgeous one in the picture thread who seems to have left. Perhaps you all put her off.

[devilmunchkin]

nah...you don't want wimpy women around...
then again...
you don't want the ones that will eat you for dinner, either...

[Rasputin]

Its a good idea

People like Zylka would be replaced by people who WRITE LIKE THIS?

I have no courage face to face. I need to hide behind a computer screen and keyboard .

I can't talk to women- they scare me .

Well get unscared. Or just allow evolution to weed you out.

Actually, I hope more guys would be like this. It decreases my competetion for the available women out there.

I feel for you because I was the same way and then I got smart. I got unscared. That's the most sympathy you'll see from me on this subject. From now on I will just berate you until you change.

let's face it, women don't like civ games... they want a man who could listen to their endless prattle, take them out for dinner and buy them delicate and romantic gifts, and not a smelly geek who yells at them "hey, woman, gimme another beer, I'm going to attack these damned Zulus and I want to celebrate my next victory!!!"

Girls do not want nice guys as boyfriends. Only as husbands.

No site that is dominated by young sexist male gamers with potty-mouths, few social skills, and a total disregard for the opinions of others (oops, redundant) will ever be frequented by women. Get used to it. Or change.

Ohmygosh! OMFG!!!11 OMG!!111 I have to get worried now.

First of all - women do play. RTS/TBS titles too. Or how would you otherwise explain all female Civers? I recall several stories about women playing Civ II and Civ III from many months ago, when I was still more active than now. Also I know in person at least one woman that plays strategy games, so I can back my words with credible proof. Women aren't all and only for chit chat and romantic gifts, venues and what not. Not all Civ playing men are like the extreme type you mentioned; at least I'm not and I believe you're not that either. So IMHO your conclusion is too harsh.

Not nearly as many women play. Some do.
