@Kit: Okay, cool.

It's really unfortunate that people discriminate against you because of your gender. I do know how that is although I haven't had much trouble finding other gamers as a result. I have, however, played with people who assume I won't play well and are surprised when I do.

Gen Con is a gaming convention that is held in Indiana in the summer. We're going for the board games, but there are definitely a lot of roleplayers there as well. We are actually planning on doing True Dungeon when we go, even though we are not experienced roleplayers. It's sort of like a live action roleplay where you go around through rooms with a group trying to work together essentially to solve giant puzzles.

@Xyphlan: That's unfortunate. I feel like the more into gaming I get, the harder it becomes to find people who are as into it as I am. My friends are pretty big nerds, but I still think of many of them as casual gamers because they don't want to play a ten-hour game of Diplomacy or Twilight Imperium. I really hope we make some friends at Gen Con who like gaming as much as we do.
