A Gaming Degree = Sex Appeal

Mar 26, 2007 13:09

I think I could convince more girls to come over to the "dark side" (a degree in technology) if I could prove that it gives a certain sexiness. I was just reading over some writing on a research paper and thinking of my experience on Friday. (Where the girls didn't know what Zelda was and basically spilled haterade all over gaming). It made me think of other experiences I've had with this group.

At the emo party, I got to meet everyone for the 2nd time. Whenever I told a girl what I was studying, she would politely chuckle and say she was not really interested in games. (Because when they think of games they think "Halo" where you have to shoot and kill). To which I would reply, "That's why we need more women in the field to make GIRLY games...that aren't just "dress up Barbie"." Or I would tell them about the awesome non-violent games such as Harvest Moon which is like a Farm Sim mixed with a Dating Sim mixed with THE Sims. XD A game of course, they don't know exists. XD

But whenever I told a GUY my major, we'd go into this super long conversation about games, life, school, and when we could meet for dinner. XD (Okay...that last part not so much.) But I found it much easier to talk with them.

Later at the Sexuality Seminars (which were awesome and sexy). I met new ppl and whenever I mentioned my major, the response was "I totally know someone who would want to MARRY You...not that i'm setting things up." or "You are so the girl my brother wants to date." Dangit, now that I have this SUPER SEXY DEGREE title, I'm not interested!! XD Funny how ironic life is. XD But I would rather marry a well-off surgeon who tolerated my crazy gaming than date a gamer. Usually they're immature. However, this seminar is also where I met the creepy guy who acts like he wants to go out with me but probably isn't. >_< Augh.

So any of you considering a new degree...come to MSU visit me and pretend you're a gaming major and we'll get you hooked up. XD Awesome. That's so gonna be my new tag line. "Masters of serious Game design...will get you hooked up." XD Aw man. Just goes to show how special and rare I am. :3 Because I've also got super feminine qualities and skillz like cooking, caring for kids, managing a budget, SHOPPIng...but I hate chick flicks and romance. :3 Can't touch this! XD

Okay...I'm done gloating for now. ;)
