A vast armada of women has invaded gaming. Where once we heard over Teamspeak the confident bluster of the male warrior, now our ears are assailed by the shrill whinging of a female in the midst of her monthly ovum flushing. Where once we casually discussed in guild chat bitch fucking and the worldwide conspiracy against women, now we pretend to have "feelings" because we are cuckolded for being "insensitive."
And it's getting worse! With great smugness, Jane over at Chilly Hollow wrote us, linking us this article that states that women are the dominant online gamers. "Eliza and I outnumber you," she wrote.
Well, first of all, at five bills, Eliza outnumbers most solar systems. Second of all, it appears that you only outnumber men if you count endless hours spent on the free Flash version of Bejeweled as "online gaming." Thirdly: we don't care if you outnumber us as long as you're not adverse to taking off your top. And finally: you count Faith Naked amongst your numbers, which pretty much drops your numeric and intellectual superiority a few dozen percentile points.
So don't get too smug, ladies. As Sean Connery famously slurred, "Shometimesh a woman jush needsh a little shlap." And my aching hand is poised.
