you do realize how utterly ridiculous this sounds, right? i hope so.
thats like saying all guys like country music instead of rock because *insert thing here*. this is your opinion, and not a fact. girls dont like certain music just because its "sexy".. most women actually do have more brains than that and do enjoy listening to music because its music, and they like it. i like black metal. i dare you to tell me thats sexy or woman-like in any way 
one more thing:
a few months ago built an amd 1.4 ghz system with 512 mb of ddr, a new cdrw, 80 gig 7200 rpm hard drive, etc. (of course its all out of date now tho 3 months later, argh). i plan on upgrading it when i get more money again and new technology comes out (maybe getting a dual athlon this time). my sister programs for nokia down in california, if you walk in to her apartment you will see about 8 computers at a time gutted and sitting on the floor, waiting to be built. she just built me an old 486 so i can play old dos games.
ive been playing computer rpgs since ultima 2 on the atari (im a hardcore ultima nerd, till 8 which then started to suck), console rpgs since dragon warrior one on the nes when i was what, 8 or 9, when nes came out. i can still talk anyone under the table about them 
im a mod on nwtekno.org, and i post on here a lot too. i also frequent rpgamer and a few other boards.
oh yea, and i also love anime, anything biomechanical (giger artwork, etc), horror movies, and drinking.. and when i say drinking, i mean ill take 151 shots. i dare you to find a guy that will match those with me i havent found one yet.
you cant generalize like that yo 
gahhh this statement was painful to read and another extremely terrible stereotype. out of all of my friends, acquaintances, etc.. the only people i know who are COMPLETELY and totally computer illiterate, and are fine being that way, are guys. id say a good 40% the people in my computer science major are girls. as well as any classes on internet/web development. when i worked at microsoft, the number of guys and girls (im talking software development here, not office jobs) were about even. girl and guy programmers alike.
this was long, sorry. heh. i just dont like reading stereotypes like this :/ |
OMGHI2U!
