I remember on my birthday a while ago my mom bought me Final Fantasy X-2 (which, let's face it, is
specifically
geared toward girls). She told me that the guy who was checking her out at the store automatically assumed that she was buying the game for her son. When she corrected him, he was genuinely shocked.
It seems like girl gamers are becoming more commonplace, but as far as I can tell they're either really a GIRL gamer, who plays GIRLY games, or a novelty gamer who dabbles in FPS's to impress the boys.
Apparently everyone else in the country doesn't buy the girl gamer thing. If you log on to Playstation Home with a girl avatar, you run the risk of somebody accusing you of being a transvestite unless you have a mic to back up the virtual breasts.
