    Like many women who game there have been periods in my life when the constant sexism and alienation have become almost too much to handle.

        @femfreq You aren't experiencing sexism- you're experiencing being exposed for the lying cheat that you are.

        @femfreq Sort of self fulfilling too, as at least to me, alienation was often what led to prolonged and regular gaming. @spameggandspam

        @wizardofcause @femfreq I think it's different for women. ie: I avoid MMOs, play offline PC RPGs. Even mainstream gaming is no refuge.

        @spameggandspam I'm sure it is, but to many degrees, games are much like books in that many gravitate towards them under duress. @femfreq

        @wizardofcause @femfreq "Much like books" THIS. Narrative can be escape, hope, consolation, therapy, strengthening, just awesome fun.

        @femfreq Amen to that. I was once discouraged from playing DND with my friends bc "It's not a female sport." I'm a master level DM.

        @femfreq You dont 'game' (and if you were a gamer you'd know that's not a thing), and you admitted as much yourself.
