Table with girls

Hey guys, implyng that the majority of RPG players are male, have you ever run across some alsort of incident or weird situation when there is a women playng with you? How are your experience with only male tables when comparing with table with females? Ever ran across some kind of sutuation where a female player ( not the PC) had and advantage or disadcantage for beign a girl? In general how are your experience when playng with a girl on the group?

No.

Haven't ever played male only (in fact, my first group was 3 girls and me).

Kinda? We're doing the 40krpgs now, and the only girl in that group didn't want me to bend canon and allow female space marines. Then again, no one but me wanted to be a space marine either.

Fine. They do this thing were they royal their voice up a lot, and talk kinda haughty no matter what character they play, but I've never seen anyone play a character who didn't think they were hot shit, so I'm pretty sure that's just them projecting confidence.

Am a girl, and it only ever got weird when someone else made it get weird.
Which was depressingly often, but thankfully not 100% of the time.

I play with girls all the time. There are no clear patterns of difference between them and male players. There are good ones, there are bad ones, you filter out the latter until you have good groups you enjoy playing with.

I guess one thing I've noticed is that female players are more often artists than male players, so we often get group artwork when playing with one.

This isn't universal, but I've noticed female players seem to have alot more fun and are better roleplayers in rules-lite games where they can just improvise and roleplay without having to worry about alot of rules and mechanics.

In rules-heavy games (Pathfinder, DnD, Shadowrun, ect), my experience with female players has been that they often become frustrated with the rules and either get away with bending/ignoring them alot, or lose interest in the game quickly because the rules get in the way of them being able to just roleplay.

Again, not a universal thing, just my own personal experiences.

Of course. What am I, a socially inept basement dweller?

I honestly don't think there's a real difference. The only thing I've never seen in females is a great stomach for rollplaying, to use something of a buzzword: they tend to ignore longer scenes of numbers unalligned with the fiction.

No. At the very most I've seen groups in which the same bullshit (being late/don't say you'll not make) was dealt with a tiny bit differently: females were given a little more slack, but basically just in the sense that words were a tiny bit more nuanced.

It's better. Not really because males are gonna make broparties of killing and whoring (though that happens, and isn't even necessarily a bad thing) but because it permits a somewhat broader choice of games, considering what males-only will never choose: basically games with a lot of romance.

The only physical at-table example I have is when a girl joined my old Pathfinder group. One of the players, unfortunately enough, starting talking loudly and enthusiastically about a book he was reading wherein the main character rapes some girl for like... no reason. Needless to say, the girl was unimpressed, and the group disbanded shortly after for a multitude of reasons.

The only real difference is that in most cases, female players mean female characters. That's literally it.

This.

I dunno, I've met alot of guys that only play female characters too, despite swearing up and down that they do a 50/50 split.

Then again, I also used to play Pathfinder, which everyone knows is Anime-Waifu General now.
