EEEEKKKKK!!!, I must draw the circle of anti-girl," to Rogue's "Easy on the profanities boys. We've a lady present."
For the most part they get over it pretty quick and Ive made some truly awesome friends. |
Actually, this is the first time I've EVER participated this much in a forum. Maybe because I got in from the very beginning, so I didn't feel intimidated by a large community of existing members. Also, I've been trying to force myself to be more outgoing. I'm shy everywhere: real life, games, forums...lol.
I, too, have gotten some pretty amusing comments from people when they discover that I'm female. I get better ones about being a mom, I think. Especially since my teenager plays with me in games. People in party-chat will tell my son, "Whoa... That's ur mom??" Then say to me, "Will you adopt me?" It's cute. Sometimes they says stuff like, "You must be olllllllldddddddd..." lol
