    And not all guys like shooters. That's the point. Everyone is different male or female. And I bet male or female gamers like lots of genres.

    first of, i don't want to take part in the stupid women/men game stereotype shit, cause it's all about socialization, gender is a lie!
    so, back to topic :p:
    my girlfriend is totaly addicted to treasures of montzuma (which she'll finish soon), she recently finished azkend and is on the last isle in dragon portals.
    so i am asking for games like i previously mentioned.
    hej girls/guys, give me some names, please :)

    i would like to get her some new nice titles, love to see her playing games :D
    thanks in advance.

    MonsterKill .. she'll love the characters. Totally different to what she's played before.

    yeah i don't think you really grasped what he was saying there. obviously everybody is an individual and any sex can like whatever genre. that was not his point at all. in fact, you practically supplemented his point by inadvertently bringing up the generalization that guys like shooters, which is quite true. that doesn't mean all guys have to like shooters. but obviously millions do, just like millions of women do play the sims. so, saying something like women enjoy the sims is a generalization with heavy backing to it. not some evil stereotype or whatever. again, everybody here already grasps the idea of individuality, it goes without saying. the OP just wanted to know some games that many women enjoy, or games that are being played by any women you personally know. that was all.

    also, this http://fc05.deviantart.com/fs27/f/2008/153/c/7/Girl_Gamers_by_FizTheAncient.png

    oh and i'd recommend monkey island. i just recommended it to a girl friend of mine who doesn't really play games, and she loves it.

    i'm dyslexic so i did a double take on that one.

    i was hoping to pick up tips in this thread on how to pick up girls with my iphone, but i'm not sure - if i put sally's spa on my phone they're just going to think i'm not interested in girls anyway...

    All three of you are saying the exact same thing. By stating that NEG didn't understand the original statement, it gave off the impression that you didn't quite understand what either one of them was saying... and then you went on to agree with them.

    No need to be such a douche next time

    ah no. her post pertains to the fact that people are different and nobody has to stay bound to a specific stereotype. his post pertains to the difference between blatant stereotyping, and making generalizations of a specific group. we can all agree in the end, but that doesn't mean that my observation along the way becomes null and void.

    thanks for the name calling though, it really shows off your maturity.

    Gee come back to this thread and find my name being thrown around. Thanks.

    Just trying to reinforce MY point that I like TONS of genres!

    Just discovered Spazzle!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Also Xenowars. Peter and Vlad. Bloons TD. Catcha Mouse. Add those to like my zillion of games of every category.

    In answer to the one whose gf liked Montezuma - did you try Rise of Atlantis? Gemmed? Rainbow Web (match 3 with a twist of finding words too)? There are a lot of them out there and I can remember a couple threads but I can't search them while posting. She only into match 3 because there are a lot of other puzzlers too that are quite fun and engaging - search for "ultimate puzzle thread" to find those!

    Thanks to those that tried to clarify my point. I DID AGREE with the point!!!!!!! My comment about shooters was to make the same comparison about girls like the Sims!

    My girlfriend is always playing either puzzle quest, mancala, or scrabble. We did like to **** with people on that 7 swords game....till we realized that everyone on there was 12, then we felt slightly creepy:(
