For Norris’ sake, we all know that girls play games. They play “hardcore” games, "casual" games, strategy games, adventure games, fighting games, mind games, games games games all the time every day. Can we stop with the “girl gamer” nonsense?
Of course not, at least, not until we overanalyze every last stereotype you're subjected to. If you're lucky enough to be one of these "normals" we keep hearing about - you know, people who just enjoy playing games - be glad that you can't be lumped into a rigid category like those below.
We’ve already dissected a variety of other stereotypes (with insulting illustrations!), so don’t go saying we only pick on the ladies. We love women, some of us are women. As always, we're not hating, we're just saying.

well those were two stupid articles i wish i didnt spend 5 minutes reading.

Wed Aug 20 2008 5:18AMPeople hate stereotypes because they usually hold a bit of truth, thats why theyre stereotypes. In a society where people want to feel like theyre unique and special even when theyre not, people go to some extremes.
When its all said and done were all the same walking talking self important bags of meat.
Wed Aug 20 2008 5:45AMPeople hate sterotypes because they're shallow and meaningless. Like the article. If you're going to be mean and rag on people at least have the courtesy to be funny or insteresting. 2/10
Wed Aug 20 2008 8:07AMwe all fit in a stereotype somewhere, we just think that indivdually that some how were different or unique. A huge misconception.
Wed Aug 20 2008 8:17AMThose sterotypes are just an obnoxious effort to be insulting, all i got form that is, as a guy, if i like gaming im either a frat boy date rapist, a pimpled preteen or a virgin for life, clearly it is super accurate, almost as accurate as all asians are good at math and all black guys have big dicks.

Wed Aug 20 2008 1:38PMkick your ass" type of girl. Well, I guess there are people being interested
in the same kinda stuff or maybe even acting alike, stereotypes
actually are nothing good for than to simplify people.
But eh... i hate stereotype talk :p
In the next thrilling instalment Tyler will go outside (yes, the real outside) and attempt to say ‘hi’, to a girl.
