But on topic, i have always identified as male, though in my case that is likely to be more because of my early sociopathic traits and need to understand/identify in a logical way so as to attempt to "fit in" with the society around me.
My current body is female as far as I know, although I wouldn't be surprised if it turned out to be unusual in that regard somehow. My personality leans toward the masculine. I am rarely all one thing in any category, though, so it's not an emergency for me like it is for some folks.
In a paper published just this year in the Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, New and her colleague, pediatric endocrinologist Saroj Nimkarn of Weill Cornell Medical College, go further, constructing low interest in babies and men-and even interest in what they consider to be men’s occupations and games-as “abnormal,” and potentially preventable with prenatal dex:
I wonder if RPG's count as "masculine games"?
Also, I really like dolls, don't want to have children, do want to be married, but will likely end up in the "masculine" breadwinner role. Oh, and I want to have sex with males (one specific male, but there you go).
Ha, these crazy scientists won't know what to make of me!
I'm reasonably sure that the jury is still out on Nature v.s. Nurture.
I just hope that these "researchers" who are ignoring medical study protocol are not getting government money.
If you got E.Mc going on games and masculine vs. female... My understanding is that, while D&D probably counts, they are trying to market new video games & probably RPG's too to a female audience.
Judging by the number of women playing RPGs at the con last weekend, they have a ways to go. The room was maybe 20% female. Better than it would have been decades ago, but not anywhere near 50-50. I think they got about 20% by being at an anime con, which in terms of attendance as a whole was more like 70% female.
