During the past week I have seen multiple women on this board state that they are interested in games, but avoid discussing with people because they do not want to deal with the reaction. So, I would not be surprised if you know some women who are interested in games/geeky stuff and they are just not sharing that information with you, especially if you give off the vibe that you think women “simply aren’t interested” in them.
In my experience, most men that I know are not playing video games … how is that for an anecdote?
