Something to do with NOT believing that soap and water are dangerous

But do we get an after-action report posted to the list, complete with
full
OOBs and tactical analysis from both sides...?	[Even more :)]

More seriously, I think there are definitely more female gamers around
now
that there used to be; at the shows, we're seeing more ladies buying
stuff
and taking an active interest, rather than looking terminally bored
while
trailing after anorak-clad husband or boyfriend. IMHO this is a very
good
thing for the hobby itself, its public image AND one's olfactory
system....

I personally know (and game with) several female roleplayers, but only
two
female miniatures gamers (one of whom is the delightful Mary Gentle -
author of "Grunts", among other books, rat and orc enthusiast
extraordinaire and truly one of the most vicious playtesters I've ever
met
- Oh, she fights with real swords too...)
