Well, here's one way of looking at it.
Like I said, women live longer than men. Regardless of whether or not the deaths are natuarl or not. lol
So, most male gamers will "expire" long before the female gamers will. There for, there will indeed one day be more female gamers than male gamers.
do they live longer then a bi guy who doesn't drink or smoke and works out & eats healthy?

Um...I don't know... I guess guys that take care of themselves would live longer than most guys. But then again you never really know...

i meant if i would live longer then females. i dont even know how they'd live longer, considering alot of females are taking the easy route for weight loss (starvation).

I know what you meant. But I don't know. lol As to why we live longer, I think it had something to do with stress levels. How we deal with that sort of thing, or something.

I think I saw a documentary where they found that women lived longer because the majority of men work more stressful jobs & this was even more so when they were the only bread winner in the family. This I believe wont be so in the future as now alot of families are two income & women now also have corporate jobs, men still dominate alot of positions but the number of women in these jobs are increasing. This could mean we see women & mens life expectency to equal out in a generation. Really have no idea what Im talking about thou LOL

Hmm....Well, tumbleweeds aren't as freaky as some of the things going on in that mind of yours (damn this gift of mine!).
Crazynites, I could look it up on the internet, but I can't be bothered. 
Either way things change, so maybe you're right about that. Hmm, but does that mean one day women will indeed dominate the entire world?
And you guys will then become the "weaker" sex? lol

Men die younger because of all the nagging we hav to put up with
The thing i hate bout feminists is that they are all about equal rights to women, which i agree with (obviously) but they always seem to take it further and be come anti-men, which is against the core idea of them being a feminist, being equal rights to both women and men. Anti-men is not being equal

Two true male idiots right there. I hope you both get severly slapped and kneed where it hurts, because with comments like that, funny or not, you would both deserve it.
As a female gamer its great to see the inevitable rise of girls and gaming. I live in an apartment with 3 female friends of mine, all love gaming, so we are sort of like one happy family. I dont see what all the fuss is about though, whats so unusual about girls being into games? We have an equal right just as much as the M gender, just my opinion.

There's nothing unusual about a girl that plays games, its just that a lot of females either don't play games or don't advertise it 
Hmmmmm, 99% of the comments in here are either sexist, inappropriate or spam!

I've deleted those posts. If I had seen them when there were made I would've warned them. But I can't be everyone at once.
If they post **** like that again (and I see it) then they will get into trouble.
And a I agree with MsFast. Well said.
I'm happy to hear that there is/might/will be an increase of female gamers too.

I've noticed. The next person to post anything sexist, small minded, spam, or inppropritate in here will get into trouble.

I think Cherrona made this thread becuase she thought it WASNT news worthy I'm guessing she probably wated us to discuss girl gamers, but instead she got a heap of sexist comments, spam and innapropriate comments
And you all wonder why women think guys are *******

That was an interesting read, 41% are now female.
I've always wondered why males were the demographic for so long, was it something in our DNA? "born to play"?
Apart from the obvious fact that with more girl gamers emmerging I'd say half the male population now has something in common with them, it's awesome to see the sterotype of "games are for nerdy guys" is being torn down.

Well the article made reference to "adults" so one can only assume 18+
Yeah there's quite a few girls in WoW.

Like GTADude said, I wanted people to discuss their thoughts on this topic. I didn't believe it warranted it's own MyPS3 news article though.
