Is it normal for a girl to be a gamer??

Im a girl, and i love to play games. I have owned (or stil own) a Nintendo (the first one) a sega 16 bit, PlayStation 1-3, Nintendo ds and iPhone. I like simulation games, final fantasy, and tekken 6 is my latest addiction. Every day i spend at least a half hour on one game or the other. is it normal for a girl to like gaming this much???

    By the way half an hour is nothing. Try spending a whole day and night trying to unlock characters and going through training mode!

    Yeah, it's normal. I like girls who game. Certainly a lot more than the girl who sat next to me at work and told me that all games are for children and no teenagers or adults should be playing them.

    I like my simulations too. If you've got any recommendations, I'm all ears.

    I think it's perfectly normal. Why should video games be only for boys? It's like: "blue is for guys and pink is for girls! If you are a boy in a pink shirt, you're gay!"

    Who made up these facts huh?

    I wish there was more girl gamers.

  • It is so normal to game as a girl, we can't let guys have all the fun! XD

    I have a PS3, DS, PSP and PS2 atm. Put it this way, even my mother fights me in Soul Calibur IV, so with games it's all good!

    Normal!!! But we don't talk about it til someone asks.
    I am a girl gamer! :D I spend 6-24hrs on games depending on which games (and my school). Currently just finished Dragon Age 2.. played 12 hours straight.

    I'm not very good with FPS and RTS tho... but I do enjoy them.
    I enjoy a serious talk about video games with my friends (most are guys).

    I can spend every waking hour playing Kingdom Hearts. I am absolutely obsessed. I would wake up and reach under my bed to play pokemon on my GBASP. Your not alone. Were just quieter about it. :) Well goodnight everyone

    Normality is overrated !!! It is a stereotype that chics aren't interested in video games. As a girl gamer I own a psp go, a gameboy color, micro, advanced, ds, wii, Nes, N64, Sega Saturn Pc laptop, and my iPhone us hacked to "dirty bits" ; /

    Girl gamers rock! But when you spend half an hour gaming every day, you're not a real gamer yet...
