This is a superb article. I must confess I did feel rather enraged reading it, as I can't abide this kind of lunatic sexism. Needless to say, you are no fraud and I'm sorry you have had these horrible experiences. I have almost zero gaming credentials (cinema and literature are my thing) but I have been known to degenerate into Incredible Hulk mode when it is suggested that women aren't into science fiction/fantasy/horror, or conversely, that men aren't into romantic comedy or musicals (I am far more into romantic comedies than my wife, and my wife is far more into sci-fi than me). Thanks again for writing this. :)
