Main Discussion: Girl Gamers

This week we'll be discussion gaming stereotypes especially for women players. Is there a difference between a Girl Gamer and a Gamer Girl? Who is considered Gamer? Why do we have a special word? Does physical appearance indicate whether you are into certain hobbies? Personal experience and research lead us to this discussion about why having digital gaming fun is such a hot topic.
