My grandmother is still trying to convert me over to sundresses and tea. (Ok, well, I took the tea part.

)
Of all the female gamers I know, most of them play the same things guys play.
Like many other females, I don't quite understand why it's so strange for girls to be playing videogames. I was actually confronted by a guy who found it really strange that I could be fashionable
and hack up enemies. Since when did female gamers need to neglect their appearance?
I'm guessing that much of this "surprise" comes from numerous stereotypes. Girls--clothes, guys, makeup, mall. Guys--swords, guns, blood. Of course, this isn't true. I was rather offended when I heard a little girl on TV go on and on about how Medieval Times was a HORRIBLE restaurant for girls because there were swords, and well, girls hate swords! I actually threw a pillow at the TV at that point. I love swords.
However, I do feel a bit uncomfortable staring at thongs and cleavage all day, but I generally don't let this stop me from playing a game.
